hjp8bk09

Dan and Anthony recap Waters USA by looking at a topic the C-level panel was deeply interested in: talent acquisition (2:00). The guys debate whether the issue is as big as some in the industry make it out to be. They also discuss a presentation by Tom Hardin, a trader-turned-FBI-informant, about insider trading (16:33). Dan then discusses virtual reality and its potential use cases within financial services (22:45). Finally, they wrap things up looking at this year's Grammy nominations, which were recently released (30:15).
