“Wall Street Week” relaunches next week

Anthony Scaramucci, the Wall Street investor who is bringing back the television show “Wall Street Week,” writes Friday about his reasoning.

The new show debuts April 19.

Scaramucci writes, “Each week, Wall Street Week viewers will have access to the world’s leading investors, CEOs, policy-makers and other top names in finance and government. Instead of minutia and inside-the-Beltway talk, the show will provide a platform for people who have made money – and helped others make money – to share critical insights on the biggest stories impacting the global capital markets and economies. We will aim to break down complex topics and issues, and provide practical takeaways.

“There is a sharp divide in this country, and many people assume, not unreasonably, that Wall Street and Main Street operate according to two separate sets of rules. I want to do my best to change that dynamic and highlight the nexus between the two. In addition, I want all investors to feel the excitement that their lives can and will be better.

“I work on Wall Street, but I’m not from Wall Street. I truly believe that every person, regardless of economic status, should have access to the smartest financial advisers and the ability to tap into the resources that drive long-term wealth creation.

“By re-launching Wall Street Week, We want to start a new national conversation that will reverberate throughout this country – from Manhattan to Levittown; Los Angeles to Bakersfield; and everywhere in between.”
