Deep Dive: The Cost of Conflict

Since the war in Iran began 6 weeks ago, the world has seen a huge spike in the cost for a slew of things, including gasoline, diesel, plastics, and fertilizer -- all things that relied heavily on the Strait of Hormuz being open. The biggest cost most Utahns have seen is with gas and diesel. And with the amount of goods transported thanks to gasoline and diesel, the costs have or will trickle-down to almost everything we use every single day.

In this Deep Dive -- The Cost of Conflict -- Maria Shilaos looks at the costs of the War in Iran on American families, Utah small business owners, and the job market as a whole.

She's joined in this discussion by:

• Liz Pancotti, managing director of Policy and Advocacy at Groundwork Collaborative
• President Mary C. Daly, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco
• Cory Stahle, economist at the Indeed Hiring Lab
