Business reporter Nicole Murray breaks down market movements following 3.4% GDP growth, Anheuser-Busch InBev quarterly earnings, Centene workforce reductions in Clayton, and a major cyber heist targeting Binance. The hour concludes with "In Other News," featuring paid robot dog walking jobs in California, feline diet studies, and a heroic school bus rescue in Minnesota.
