A key indicator called the inverted yield curve has some economists worried that a recession could be on its way. We unpick the jargon and weigh up how likely it is that the US economy is about to go into reverse. Also, we hear about the secret talks between Venezuelan President Maduro and the Trump administration and we get the latest from Hong Kong. Plus, as President Trump calls the Danish Prime Minister "nasty" for not wanting to sell Greenland to the United States, we take a look back at the long history of purchasing foreign lands. Finally, are your bookshelves a a feature of your home? We hear from a man who curates books for celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow. Presenter Fergus Nicoll is joined by guests Enda Curran and Rhonda Sharpe. PHOTO: Getty Images
