Money News: How UAW Strike Could Affect Workers — and Car Costs
Nerds explain this week’s personal finance news, with a focus on labor unrest as the United Auto Workers union prepares to strike.
In Smart Money’s new weekly personal finance news roundup, hosts Sean Pyles and Anna Helhoski take a look at recent developments in the world of money and then go in-depth on an issue that could be important to your life — and your bottom line.
Today’s topics include rising home prices, the latest statistics on household wealth and debt, the rise in poverty from 2021 and 2022, and high-yield savings accounts. Plus, Sean and Anna take a deep look at the United Auto Workers' (UAW) threatened strike against the three largest automakers: Ford, General Motors and Stellantis. Learn what the workers want and what it could mean for your car shopping prospects if their demands aren’t met.
