Sam Adams owner Boston Beer shockingly doubled profits last quarter, but it’s not thanks to Boston Beer. Disney, Apple, and Netflix have made moves that just killed the summer blockbuster biz. And the biggest Special Purpose Acquisition Company ever just went public, officially making this the “Summer of the SPAC” (fun to say).

17:13
Roblox jumped 21% because kids want Robux for their birthday. Macy’s was so close to bankruptcy it should be nursing itself back to health, but instead it’s going BIG in New York City real estate. And stocks just dropped because of inflation worries that can all be explained by a chicken and a rooster. $RBLX $M $TSN Got a SnackFact?

🎸 “Mom, you take the James Taylor ticket” — Live Nation’s slingshot. Darkside’s hacking Inc. Blind’s gossip app.
18:00
Concert legend Live Nation has become a slingshot stock with a new calling: Make concerts make money like sports. Darkside is the cyberhacking ransomware crew that may have just jacked up your gas prices. And Blind raised $37M for an office gossip app that your HR team hates so much… they just might pay for it. $LYV $NET $PANW $UL Got a SnackFact?

Wondering what happened to Quibi? Roku bought ‘em... and now the little dongle that could is in 54M homes. Papa John’s just defied every carby expectation thanks to Epic premium-ized pizza (literally).

17:53
If you thought your 1st Uber ride in a year felt more expensive… it was (Uber’s $20B in quarterly bookings were its best ever). Honest Co jumped 44% on its IPO, but influencers have become its greatest strength... and its greatest threat. And Moderna was told it may have to make an unprecedented move: Share its vaccine recipe with other chefs. $HNST $UBER $MRNA Got a SnackFact?

17:55
We have 2 ideas for how iRobot can make itself over, because its Roomba vacuum isn’t living its best life. The Cadillac Escalade borrowed a strategy from the airlines (and that’s why GM’s stock jumped 4%). And Facebook’s mysterious Oversight Board just made a no-decision on the Trump ban, so we’re examining the Board. $IRBT $GM $FB $TWTR Got a SnackFact?

Ferrari doesn’t want to dilute its brand, so it whipped up a (literally) hidden profit puppy. Bitcoin’s dropping, Dogecoin’s surging, but Ethereum is now the most actively used crypto of them all. And Pfizer revealed a shocking ~$1B profit in the vaccine, but it’s all because of its First & Fancy strategy. $ETH $RACE $PFE Got a SnackFact?

We noticed a funny thing about Estée Lauder’s cosmetics earnings: It’s not a makeup company anymore. Yahoo and AOL just got dumped by Verizon for $5B, so we’re doing a relationship autopsy.
