🎓 “Ivy League fast-pass” — Crimson’s venture-backed tutor. Louis Vuitton’s tariff pain. Butterfinger’s 101-year streak.
The Best One Yet17 Okt 2024

🎓 “Ivy League fast-pass” — Crimson’s venture-backed tutor. Louis Vuitton’s tariff pain. Butterfinger’s 101-year streak.

A college tutor startup is now worth $500M… Because it gets you into Harvard (for $200K).

Louis Vuitton sales fell last quarter… because the trade war is firing up again.

Butterfinger just launched its 1st new flavor in 101 years… and we think that’s a mistake.

Plus, Crocs just launched clogs for dogs… Because we spend more on pets than shoes.

🙃 “Hello, FOMO Rally” — Bitcoin’s $60,000 surge. Beyond Meat’s French lover. Teledoc’s bow & arrow.

🙃 “Hello, FOMO Rally” — Bitcoin’s $60,000 surge. Beyond Meat’s French lover. Teledoc’s bow & arrow.

Bitcoin surged past $60K to its highest point in 2 years — We think it’s a FOMO rally, which can quickly become a NOMO drop.Beyond Meat stock popped 30% on a surprise new customer: Europeans – Because Europeans have a better taste for sustainability than Americans do.And Teledoc, the owner of BetterHelp, just announced bummer news for investors: It’s “well-penetrated” — A small announcement like that makes a huge difference if you look 10 years out. By the way… on leap day, stock markets don’t leap.$BTC $ETH $HOOD $COIN $BYND $TDOCSubscribe to our newsletter: tboypod.com/newsletterWant merch, a shoutout, or got TheBestFactYet?

🍦 “$18 for a Frosty?” – Wendy’s surge pricing. The grocery store election. Apple’s canceled iCar.

🍦 “$18 for a Frosty?” – Wendy’s surge pricing. The grocery store election. Apple’s canceled iCar.

Inspired by Uber, Wendy’s is adding digital billboards to all locations by 2025 so it can bring Surge Pricing to fast food — How much does a burger cost? Depends on the time of day.Kroger and Albertsons were about to merge in the biggest deal in grocery history, but the government just sued to block it — Because this year’s election will be decided in the grocery aisle.And after 10 years of developing a secret iCar, Apple is quitting — But we think Apple already owns your car (we’ll explain).Intro: Gen Z is making landlines cool again.

🇸🇪🛋️ “IkeaWëWørk” — Ikea’s coworking launch. Dutch Bros’ Starbucks dunk. Warren Buffett’s special letter.

Ikea’s got its own malls now, and is adding a branded coworking space to them — Ikea just launched a rival to WeWork because coworking isn’t a product, it’s a feature.The #3 coffee chain in America? It’s Dutch Bros — The Broistas at Dutch Bros are catching up to Starbucks by obsessing over the drive-thru.And Warren Buffett just wrote his annual letter to shareholders — It reminded us of Warren’s legendary “20–Slot” mindset of patient investing.Plus, Pitbull is opening a restaurant inside a Walmart (true story) — What celeb do you think should open a restaurant… and in what retail chain?$BROS $SBUX $BRK.ASubscribe to our newsletter: tboypod.com/newsletterWant merch, a shoutout, or got TheBestFactYet?

🌝“The company building moon city” — Intuitive Machines + Nasa. Pork’s “other meat” problem. Reddit files to IPO.

5 countries have landed on the moon, now 1 company has: Intuitive Machines — Nasa was barely involved, because sometimes to grow, you have to let go. Pork demand is down in America for the last 20 years, because Chicken is taking over — The real problem? “The Other White Meat” marketing campaign.Reddit was one of the first social media companies, but will be the last to IPO — But the biggest risk to the company? Revolt. Literally.$RDDT $LUNR $TSNSubscribe to our newsletter: tboypod.com/newsletterWant merch, a shoutout, or got TheBestFactYet?

🧳 “Cancel the Carry-on” – American Airlines’ new fee. Liquid Death’s tiny billboard. Nvidia’s Hermès handbag chips.

American Airlines increased their checked bag fee by 33%, but economics shows they should do the opposite — Airlines should kill overhead compartments… kill the carryon.Liquid Death is selling the space on their boxes as an ad to Coinbase – It’s a “tiny billboard” and it’s the dumbest idea you can think of (and that’s the point).Nvidia just announced that revenues nearly quadrupled last quarter — Because they price their chips like Hermès prices their handbags.And Apple debunked the “rice will save my phone” theory — So we dug into the origin of the rice myth, and explain what to actually do if your phone gets wet.$NVDA $AAL $COINSubscribe to our newsletter: tboypod.com/newsletterWant merch, a shoutout, or got TheBestFactYet?
