Show notes

Episode 295: Today, John and Emily break down the state of the U.S. housing market and why luxury homes are booming while the starter and middle markets are stalling. Then, we dive into Hasbro's earnings, the magic behind one of its biggest assets, and why the toy giant is leaving Rhode Island after more than a century. We also unpack 3M's earnings and its expanded data center partnership with Amazon. Plus, we round up the latest market headlines, including MSG Sport's upcoming split, Best Buy's push into gaming, Amazon's holiday hiring spree, Salesforce's acquisition of Braze and why shares of South Korea's Elice Group plunged in their market debut.
