Happy Cinco De Mayo and welcome to the Monday Edition of the Business News Headlines for this the 5th day of May.  Glad you're here. Topping our newscast is the belief that the Central Bank will defy President Trump and keep interest rates where they are.  We'll know more on Wednesday. In other news shoe company Sketchers has been purchased and will be going private. More tariff news to share with you this time it’s Hollywood and movies. Audi pulls imports the US and tells dealers to sell what’s in stock. The Wall Street Report and an experiment…will American consumers purchase more expensive items if they are made in the USA?  You might be surprised. For the interview I visited with four entrepreneurs last week at the Valley Junction Farmers Market held in West Des Moines, Iowa…and what they had to say might impress you.  Let’s go!
