Welcome to Tuesday, Daily Money readers. It's David here, with our top business and tech stories. |
The nation remains on edge after another night of protests and clashes over the death last Monday of George Floyd, a black man who died while under arrest by a white Minneapolis police officer. The demonstrations and looting that followed have resulted in injuries, deaths and damage to businesses.
