The Best One Yet
đ˝ âThe monster in your sinkâ â InSinkEratorâs $3B sink. Chipotleâs love-flation. Microsoftâs video game duty.
Ep. 958
â˘
Remember when we told you 2 out of 3 acquisitions fail? Well we found one that didnât: Insinkerator and Whirlpool. Chipotle stock just hit an all-time high because they raised prices on your burrito⌠but you ate it anyway (we call it âLove-flationâ). And Microsoft was about to make the biggest deal in its entire history for video games⌠but then someone pulled the power cord.
