❤️ “Elmo the Influencer” — Sesame Street’s Instagram strategy. Uber’s new Costco run. Google is killing Google Search with AI.
Elmo, Big Bird, and Mr. Snuffleupagus are trending on social media because of Sesame Street’s new strategy — Sometimes you’ve got to do things that don’t scale.
Uber just launched its newest form of transportation: A bus — Because public transportation can’t take you to a 10pm concert or a 6am Costco run.
And Google’s new artificial intelligence announcement is actually going to kill Google Search — Because technology can retire an entire industry.
Plus, the hot new place to work these days? It’s not your home or your office… its Disney World — Disney’s become the new productivity coworking space for Millennial techies, lawyers, and finance folks.

🩲 “Kim’s gravitational force” — Skims WNBA win. Made In China’s 100% tariff. Pizza Hut’s burger strategy.
Kim Kardashian’s Skims just announced a WNBA partnership — Because Skims is competing where Victoria’s Secret and Spanx won’t play.
Pizza Hut is launching its first… hamburger — But 30 years ago, McDonald’s tried launching a pizza. And it’s a case study in getting out of your comfort zone.
And the White House just quadrupled tariffs on EVs, batteries, solar panels, and chips from China — Because “Made in China” doesn’t mean cheap anymore.
Plus, Utah is getting its 1st NHL team and fans get to choose the name — What would you name Salt Lake City’s pro hockey team (our money’s on “Yeti”)? Vote here: https://nhlinutah.com/

🏒🏀 “New York Sports, Inc.” — Madison Square Garden’s playoff stock pop. GameStop’s return of the kitty. OpenAI’s ease-of-use.
With the Knicks and Rangers deep in the playoffs for the first time in decades, MSG Sports stock is winning right now — But it suffers from the Diva Discount (we’re talking James Dolan).
Sam Altman and OpenAI just announced their newest AI breakthrough: GPT4o — But this isn’t about how smart it is, it’s about how easy it is to use.
And GameStop’s stock ended the day 74% higher because Roaring Kitty tweeted a meme after 3 years of silence — We’re talking meme stocks again.
Plus, the biggest Solar Storm in 20 years is messing with America’s economy — Tractors can’t navigate for the same reason that brought us the Northern Lights.

🧊 “Buy a North Pole Condo” — 15k acres of Arctic real estate. Warby Parker’s perfection. Chevy Malibu’s extinction.
The world’s most-northern piece of real estate just hit the market for $300M — We predict who will buy Svalbard, and what kind of wild polar park it will become.
Warby Parker’s stock surged 18% last week because of a wild retention stat — 100% of Warby-wearers buy a 2nd pair within 4 years.
And General Motors just announced it’s killing the Chevrolet Malibu, which was GM’s last sedan — turns out, all American sedans are no-more, not just because consumers want huge cars.
Plus, Sriracha is pausing sauce production due to green chili peppers — They think it’s a problem, but we think it’s a missed marketing opportunity.

🇨🇭 “Swiss Army Knifeless” — Victorinox’s blade pivot. Disney & HBO’s Stream Team. The $400 red pineapple.
Victorinox’s legendary Swiss Army Knife faces an existential challenge: knife bans — So it’s offering a knife-less swiss army knife that’s actually more like a steak knife.
Disney and Warner Brothers Discovery are launching a streaming bundle this summer that includes Disney+, Hulu, and Max — People say this is like a cable TV all over again, we show how it’s not.
And Del Monte Foods has created a ruby red pineapple through cross-breeding that sells for $400 apiece — It’s a “halo product” designed to sell regular products.

The New York Times just passed a wild milestone — The NYT has more gaming & cooking subscribers than news subscribers.
