The Best One Yet - 🏋️‍♀️ “Open gym relationship” — ClassPass-quisition. GitLab’s radical IPO. America’s super strike.

Ex-unicorn ClassPass was just acquired by MindBody because the future of working out could look like dining out. GitLab surged 35% on its IPO and it’s so radically transparent that they let the competition crash their meetings. And America is living through a Super Strike because you’re making more dough, but what’s the price of bread? $GTLB $DE Got a SnackFact?

The Best One Yet - 🏖️ “The Host Economy” — Airbnb’s home-fluencing. Vuse’s approved eCig. The Government’s grand intervention

The Creator Economy gets all the attention, but Airbnb thinks a new thing will get just as big: The Host Economy. For the 1st time in history, an ecigarette just got FDA approval because Vuse is Moving Slow & Asking For Permission. And chips, ships, and ransomware are messing with markets worldwide, so the government just kicked things up a notch this week. $ABNB Got a SnackFact?

The Best One Yet - 🏒 “NHL = 44X < NFL” — Zale’s proposal-palooza. Starbucks’ 50th. Hockey’s renaissance.

The owner of Zales, Kay, and Jared’s isn’t just selling more jewelry than ever, it’s selling pricier jewelry. Is Starbucks 50 years old or 50 years young? And the NHL is kicking off its renaissance season — but it needs Disney’s marketing magic. $SIG $SBUX $DIS Got a SnackFact?

The Best One Yet - 🩲 “Who wears short shorts?” — Chubbies’ frat IPO. Southwest’s hangover. Nobel’s burger-flipping prize.

The artist behind Chubbies’ shorts is going public, but it’s really a fraternity. Southwest Airlines just canceled so many weekend flights that its stock dropped (and the mysteries began). And the Nobel Prize for economics just tested an ancient theory: Would a $15 minimum wage make McDonald’s lay off their burger crew? $DTC $LUV Got a SnackFact?

The Best One Yet - 🦇 “Keep Elon Weird” — Saudi’s soccer cinderella. Tesla’s Austin move. Asana’s CEO secret.

Asana’s stock is a top stock of 2021 - and their CEO has been buying more and more of his own stock all year. Tesla just quit California to move to Austin, but the real story here is every company *except* for Tesla. And Saudi Arabia’s national royal fund just dropped $400M to buy a professional English football club — which instantly transforms it into England’s richest soccer club. $TSLA $ASAN Got a SnackFact?

The Best One Yet - 👖 “Cotton Catastrophe” — Levi’s chain. Perfect Day’s meat ice cream. Gen Z’s Nike-fication.

Levi’s stock surged 8% not because of jeans it’s selling, but because of what it’s buying. Perfect Day hit a $1.5B valuation for pioneering a new phase in the Future Food industry: Meat-Based-Meat-Without-The-Meat. And the annual report on Gen-Z just revealed we’ve got a brand new brand king of the generation (Snapchat is out, Nike is in). $LEVI $BYND $NKE Got a SnackFact?

Cruise’s robo-taxis are already driving through the streets of San Francisco, which could deliver GM an extra $50B in sales. Masterworks hit a $1B valuation by letting you buy a piece of a Picasso.

The Best One Yet - 🍷 “Hey Alexa, pour Pinot” — Napa’s audio wine. Twitter’s tipping. Oil’s $5 per gallo

Duckhorn Vineyards just IPO’d as a pure-play pinot stock, but its latest move isn’t drinking wine, it’s listening to wine. Oil prices just hit record highs worldwide — and that’s really a tax on the entire economy. And while Facebook was down Monday, Twitter wasn’t.

Squid Game has become a market-moving Netflix show messing with stocks. The latest move in digital cryptocurrencies is physical crypto stores. And a 470-mile undersea electric cable by National Grid is solving the biggest problem of renewable energy: Inconsistency.  $NFLX $BTC $ETH $NGG Got a SnackFact?

Merck jumped 16% on word it may have created a Covid-crushing pill, then its stock created a Corporate Conga Line. The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Vegas sold for $5.7B and the winners are bach parties and Blackstone Private Equity.
