“UNO...the card game…the movie” — Mattel’s 25 schmoovies. Twitter’s DIY blitz. GM’s $2B mistake.

Barbie just enjoyed her best sales quarter in 6 years… Now Mattel is going full Disney with a whole new strategy. Twitter announced earnings, but we’re focused on the 5 acquisitions it’s made in 60 days. And General Motors’ stock fell 5% after admitting it’s not a computer — and admitting a $2B mistake. $MAT $TWTR $GM Got a SnackFact?

“r/Reddit$6Billion” — DoorDash’s robot salad. Hawk/Dove stimulus. Reddit valuation doubling.

Fresh after a 5-second Super Bowl ad, Reddit doubles its valuation to $6B. DoorDash just acquired a sushi and salad-making robot because it hates humans. And we’re about to get another stimulus, but it all comes down to 1 conversation between the Hawks and the Doves. $DASH Got a SnackFact?

“1 Bitcoin = 1 Model Y” — Elon’s crypto-for-cars. Hershey’s s’mores surge. Target’s $1B yoga pants.

Elon wants to trade cryptocurrency for Teslas, popping Bitcoin’s price above $45K. Hershey’s gets some investor love before Valentine’s Day thanks to the great s’mores surge. And Target’s athleisure brand hits $1B in sales because the target logo is nowhere to be seen. $BTC $TSLA $HSY $TGT Got a SnackFact?

“Canada Goose + Yeti + Resto Hardware" — The Goose’s strategic uniform. Snapchat’s augmented everything. 23andMe’s DNA SPAC.

Canada Goose shares surged because it had been forgotten by Wall Street. Snapchat collects less data on you than every other social media… because it’s betting on AR to make more money. And 23andMe is using a Hollywood SPAC to take DNA public. $GOOS $SNAP $VGAC Got a SnackFact?

“The 1st pureplay Super Bowl stock” — Apple’s iCar. Wingstop’s stock pop. End of the S.U.M.O.

Apple and Kia just took their biggest steps yet to make iCar a thing: It’s not a First Mover, it’s a Second Shaker. Wingstop’s stock popped because chicken wing prices are living their best lives for the Super Bowl. And a subtle change may mean you don’t have to be knighted to invest in big pre-IPO startups (no more SUMO’ing - straight up missing out). $WING $AAPL Send us your Black History Month SnackFact here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Hu00HOlQ-qb6S7Jx4CgnGOfzrA67_j_SLFqxvFKinEQ/edit Wa...

“Married or your money back” — Match’s dating lab. Scotts Miracle-Gro’s cannabis. Harley-Davidson’s ride-leisurewear.

Match’s experiments with Tinder in Japan reveal the dating legend’s true competitive advantage. And Scotts Miracle-Gro’s stock doubled because it’s focused on lawns and cannabis. And Harley-Davidson stock fell 20% so we came up with a turnaround plan for them (which doesn’t hate Millenials). $MTCH $SMG $HOG Send us your Black History Month Snackfact here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Hu00HOlQ-qb6S7Jx4CgnGOfzrA67_j_SLFqxvFKinEQ/edit Want a shoutout on the pod?

“Amazon’s 2nd puberty” — Bezos quits. Uber’s $1.1B Drizly drank. Why GameStop stock halted.

Jeff Bezos is stepping down as Amazon CEO because of 1 word: “yawn.” Uber splurges $1.1B for Drizly’s booze delivery because there’s an alcohol arbitrage opportunity. And GamesStop’s stock re-pop dropped, so we’re looking at why trading gets halted on stock markets. $UBER $AMZN Got a SnackFact?

“How ya like dem Apples?” — Short-selling’s Matt Damon moment. Nintendo’s 13-year record. Nike’s artful Zucking.

WallStreetBets just used American Airlines stock to get back at shorting hedge funds (we’re getting Good Will Hunting vibes). Ninendo enjoyed its best quarter in 13 years, but we think it needs to pull a disney. And Nike just pulled off the first artful Zucking: it’s stealing like an artist from Crocs. $NKE $NTDOY $CROX Here’s the Google form to submit your voice-recorded SnackFacts (Black History Month) https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Hu00HOlQ-qb6S7Jx4CgnGOfzrA67_j_SLFqxvFKinEQ/edit Want a sho...

“How the money pipes work” — A stock brokerage’s plumbing. Levi’s kills slim-fit. WeWork’s ReWork.

We’re jumping into the pipes deep within the financial system: Breaking down the plumbing on why brokerages broke down last week. Levi’s is killing slim fit, joining The Comfort Economy, and going into… furniture. And a year after falling apart, WeWork may be reborn for the next trend in your work life. $LEVI $SPY Got a SnackFact? Tweet it @RobinhoodSnacks @JackKramer @NickOfNewYork Want a shoutout on the pod?

“More change in 1 year than 50” — r/wallstreetbets’ day 3. GM’s Netflixification. Facebook’s awkward Apple.

We don’t usually cover a story 3 days in a row, but this is different: We’re looking at how r/wallstreetbets made the industry uncomfortable. General Motors is going 100% electric by pulling a move straight outta Netflix. And the wildest part of Facebook’s earnings report… was Zuck’s focus on Apple. $GME $NFLX $GM $FB $AAPL Statement from Robinhood on yesterday’s events: https://blog.robinhood.com/news/2021/1/28/an-update-on-market-volatility Learn more about your ad choices.

“You too, Tootsie?” — Tootsie Roll’s cyberbulling. Apple’s TBOY. Starbucks’ reimagining.

Fresh after cyberbulling (not cyberbullying) powered up GameStop’s stock, we’re looking at its moves on Tootsie Roll and AMC.

“It’s Cyber-bulling (not Cyber-bullying)” — Beyond Meat’s soda friend. Reddit’s stock pop. Johnson & Johnson’s tortoise vax.

Beyond Meat surged 20% on word it’s partnering up with Pepsi. Reddit’s driving Gamestop, BlackBerry, and Bed Bath & Beyond stocks through “Cyber-bulling” (not cyber-bullying). And Johnson & Johnson went more tortoise, less hare, with a new vaccine that it pre-announced as a “game-changer”. $BYND $GME $JNJ Got a SnackFact?

“You, me, some guy, and Oprah” – Clubhouse hits $1B. Latch’s public key. WWE’s micro-stream fail.

Clubhouse has become the only unicorn you can’t see, only hear. Latch is going public to open your door (literally), but the money is in the software.

We saw a headline about Instacart over the weekend, but we rewrote a completely new one for them instead. To solve the vaccine crisis, we need Amazon Prime Vax. And EVgo went public because electric cars need charging stations. And it’s time for gas stations to be completely reimagined. $CRIS $AMZN Got a SnackFact?

“GameStop isn’t Blockbuster” — GameStop’s 100% week. Poshmark’s IPO outfit. Computer chips’ wild moment.

Poshmark pulled off the double-double IPO, but we don’t think it’s really an ecommerce company. GameStop’s stock (say 5 times fast) surged 100% in the last week, so we’re looking at why it’s no longer dead. And computer chips have never been in higher demand — and the industry has never seen so much drama. $POSH $GME $QCOM Got a SnackFact?

CBS just introduced the NFL and Nickelodeon for the perfect marriage of convenience. After surging 600%, Zoom’s stock has lost almost half its value, so we’ve got an idea for them. And Walmart just whipped up a freaky outdoor cooler to store grocery delivery when you’re not home — because it knows the secret to your subscription heart. $VIAC $ZM $WMT Got a SnackFact?

We’re facing a milestone in the shift to ecommerce: Ecommerce companies don’t want your returns anymore (just keep the socks). After a quick death, Quibi will be reincarnated… as Roku.

BarkBox goes public with a $1.6B SPAC because your dog can, in fact, suffer from subscripturation. Budweiser just launched a spiked lemonade, but it reminds us of the same growth strategy as Apple’s iPhone. And automation is failing on social media platforms. $BUD $STIC $FB $TWTR Got a SnackFact?
