"1 app to rule them all" — Google zucks Venmo. TJ Maxx's final treasure hunt. GM's in-car-surance.
Google’s new finance app is straight up Venmo, with all privacy perks you expect from Google. TJ Maxx is 100% focused on the treasure hunt experience of physical shopping, but then yesterday happened. And General Motors realized it knows more about your driving skills than your insurance company does, which led to an idea... $TJX $GOOG $GM Got a SnackFact?

“We’re in a Baby Bust” — P&G’s diaper problem. Tesla joins the club. Duolingo translates $2.4B.
When a pandemic means making fewer babies, Procter & Gamble has to adjust its diaper strategy (spoiler: fancy dipes). Tesla stock popped 20% this week because admittance to the S&P 500 club brings perks. And our “Unicorn of the Day” is Duolingo, which just hit a $2.4B valuation as the translation app tries to pull a Spotify. $PG $TSLA Got a SnackFact?

“The stock ticker should be KEYS” — Airbnb’s IPO. Mars eats Kind Bars. Amazon launches an ePharmacy.
We jumped into Airbnb’s IPO paperwork Snacks Style… and they finally told us who their favorite child is. Candy legend Mars just bought Kind Bar because snacks spring eternal (meta). And if you noticed Walgreens stock fell, it’s because Amazon just whipped up an online pharmacy. $ABNB $AMZN Got a SnackFact?

“We did a 5th thing...” — Casper’s 14% nightmare. Southwest’s frugal-ness. Asia’s epic trade deal.
Casper’s 14% stock drop reveals a self-inflicted weakness that’s been hidden for years. Southwest Airlines stock rose 2% because it’s pulling the opposite move of every other airline right now — expanding. And Asia’s huge trade deal covers 2.2B people & ⅓ of the Earth’s economic activity — but the USA is MIA. $CSPR $LUV $PRPL Got a SnackFact?

“Dip, dodge, dive, duck, Doordash” — DoorDash’s IPO. Disney’s stock defiance. Google’s unlimited strategy.
We ordered some noodles and jumped into DoorDash’s fresh IPO paperwork… but there’s one problem that they mentioned 649 times. DisneyLand shut down, no new movies, and stores closed? Didn’t stop Disney stock from jumping after its earnings. And we’ve finally ID’d Google’s strategy to get you hooked: “The 5-year Free Unlimited.” $DASH $GOOG $DIS Got a SnackFact?

“TSA for Adele” — Live Nation’s 2021 strategy. Sonos’ niche need. Ford’s subscripturation.
Live Nation’s sales plummeted 95%, so it’s already got a plan for your summer 2021 concert game. Sonos’ latest product unveil has us thinking they should find their niche. And Ford’s newest electric van isn’t really a van… it’s a freaky software your boss loves. $LYV $SONO $F Got a SnackFact?

“Lyft is worth only 1 Lyft” — Apple’s horizontal dominance. Hopin’s $125M. Lyft’s non-moment.
We’ve been thinking it for weeks, but now that Lyft’s reported earnings we’re just gonna say it: Lyft hasn’t done anything this year. Apple’s “One More Thing” event shows that it’s not only vertically integrating… it’s horizontally dominating. And Hopin is our “Unicorn of the Day” for snagging a fresh $125M to be the Zoom for events (but ultimately the Zoom for Zoom). $LYFT $AAPL $INTC Got a SnackFact?

“Crazy in love (on a bike)” — Beyonce’s Peloton deal. Spotify’s podcast puberty. Ulta Beauty’s Inception retail.
Peloton snagged a deal with Beyonce because Peloton is not in the industry you think it’s in. Spotify’s latest $235M acquisition is its most important yet, even if you’ll never listen to it. And Ulta Beauty’s quitting on malls to move into Target… which kinda turns Target into a mall. $SPOT $ULTA $PTON $TGT Got a SnackFact?
