“Earth’s biggest IPO is MIA” — Ant’s $310B ghosting. Reef’s $700M parking lot. The Right to Repair in Massachusetts.

Ant Financial is the biggest finance company on the planet that was ready for the biggest IPO on earth… until the Chinese Government got involved. Reef Technologies is trying to do something kind of WeWork-y, but with parking lots instead of glamorous offices. And The Right to Repair would hurt corporate profits, but help just about everyone else. $BABA $AAPL Got a SnackFact? Tweet it @RobinhoodSnacks @TBOYJack @NickOfNewYork Want a shoutout on the pod?
