Description:

Ed Butler explores Invest America, a new US government initiative aimed at boosting long-term investment among younger citizens. The plan gives every newborn Americans $1,000 to invest in stocks and shares for their future, and is part of President Trump's controversial 'Big, beautiful' spending bill. We’ll also look at concerns over why India is requiring telecom companies to pre-install a government tracking app on all new mobile phones. And we revisit a 90s classic — the Tamagotchi is back on top as Japan’s most sought-after children’s gift this Christmas, nearly thirty years after it first became a sensation.
