The Best One Yet - 🥤 “Huge Millennial Water Bottle” — Stanley’s tumbler surge. The Ozempic Effect. Shrek’s music stock.

The #1 trending water bottle right now? It’s not Swell, Nalgene, or Klean Kanteen. It’s Stanley — Stanley sales are up 275% because of one “minnovation”.

Ozempic is already being used by a shocking number of people — It’s not just a weight loss drug. It’s changing the entire economy.

And you can now buy stock in Shrek (literally the music from the movie Shrek) — It’s financial memorabilia for which we’re happy to pay an emotional premium.

Toys ‘R’ Us is back with an ambitious expansion plan that they call “land, air, and sea” — Because location isn’t just a physical place, it’s also a mindset.

The Nobel Prize was awarded to 2 scientists who invented the mRNA platform — But the surprise winner of the COVID vaccine is UPenn.

And the Sphere in Las Vegas just hosted its 1st concert, so the stock popped 15% — This 8th wonder of the world highlights a new phenomenon: “Second-Screening.”

The Best One Yet - 🍽️ “Death of a Meal Kit” — Blue Apron’s autopsy. The Stock Market’s sad September. Porsche’s 1st apartment.

Blue Apron was sold to Wonder for $100M — The problem? That’s 95% lower than the mealkit compay’s peak valuation. We found out why.

The S&P 500 fell by 5% in September — We found the quintuple whammy of economic worries that explain it.

And luxury car brands are moving from car sales to condo sales — Because the cure for a commodity is a brand.

The Best One Yet - 🥇 “Gollllllld” — Costco’s gold bars. Microsoft’s nuclear reactor. Levi’s over-firing strategy.

Ask Nick & Jack (almost) anything with this form.  

The newest and fastest-selling product at Costco? 1 oz gold bars — Because gold is the financial emergency survival kit for money.

Microsoft is hiring for a surprising new role — Microsoft needs someone to build its own nuclear power plant. 

And Levi’s outgoing CEO has one major regret: He wishes he’d fired *more* people — Because you should “fire fast and hire slow.”

The Best One Yet - 💿 “The Last DVD” — Netflix’s brilliant self-disruption. The Electric Cars election. ChatGPT’s physical “chatpod”.

Tomorrow is the last day you can order a DVD from Netflix — For 10 years Netflix was just DVDs, then it made a brilliant pivot… by putting the DVD people in another building.

Detroit is known for making cars, but now for politics too — Because in 2024, EVs are on the ballot.

And ChatGPT is talking to the designer of the iPhone to make a physical thing — Pretty soon, you may be chatting to a “chatpod”.

The Best One Yet - 🤸‍♀️ “Grandpa wears Lulu” — Lululemon’s multi-generational strategy. Amazon’s monopoly lawsuit. Yelp’s hall of shame.

The surprise reason Lululemon enjoys consistent 20% growth every quarter? Cause it’s selling to moms and daughters *and* grandmas — Because Lulu prioritizes function over fashion.

Amazon was just sued by the FTC and 17 states for running an illegal monopoly — But the biggest challenge to this lawsuit… is the law.

Yelp is cracking down on what we’re calling “faux-star reviews” — It’s a fake review Hall of Shame.

The Best One Yet - 🔫 “Super Soaker World” — Nerf’s theme park. Writers’ strike finale. Spotify’s podcast translator.

Hasbro’s Nerf brand was essential to our childhood, so it’s opening its 1st ever Nerf theme park — Because great brands are like a rubberband… they can strettttch.

The writers have reached a tentative deal with Hollywood (spoiler: Sources say it’s fantastic for the writers) — Now the other strikers will pull a Meg Ryan and ask “I’ll have what she’s having.”

And Spotify just launched a feature that translates podcast hosts into different languages — It can translate words, but can it translate chemistry?

The Best One Yet - 🎙️🎙️“TBOY signs with Wondery” — Return of the TV Rerun. Deion’s $5M sunglasses. Snapchat’s surprise+.

Since the writers’ strike began, you’ve been watching reruns (Suits, Seinfeld, and Wheel of Fortune) — the Hollywood Strike has been bad for TV, but great for everything else. 

How did Snapchat hit 5M paying subscribers? It’s because Snapchat is like a telephone — and every other social media is like a phonebook.

And Deion Sanders just caused one sunglass startup to experience a $5M sales surge — Because the best PR is personal.
