Turkey lira: Ankara to boycott US electronic goods

Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said his country will boycott US products.

Also in the programme, amid fears that Turkey's currency crisis is spreading to other emerging markets, our regular economic commentator, Roger Bootle of Capital Economics considers the likelihood of wider contagion. We also hear from Aaron Klein, a fellow in Economics at the Brookings Institution in Washington. Plus we talk to Zack O'Malley Greenburg of Forbes magazine, about his list which ranks the top ten richest country music stars.
