We’ve got a great lineup for today’s Fortune Live, our weekly business show hosted by assistant managing editor Leigh Gallagher.

Senior editor Stephen Gandel and writer Phil Wahba start things off discussing the week’s top news: the Fed’s decision not to raise interest rates, AB InBev and SABMiller’s proposed merger, and Target’s (TGT) new game plan. Tom Gimbel, CEO of LaSalle Network, will also be joining us.

Today’s The Exchange segment features Chris Terrill, CEO of HomeAdvisor.

Gallagher and writer Erin Griffith then delve into the competitive market of New York ridesharing apps. Daniel Ramot, co-founder and CEO of Via, and David Mahfouda, founder and CEO of Bandwagon, join us for this discussion.

The full show and breakout segments will be available to watch on demand after the show concludes. You can find them at fortune.com/fortunelive.
