Episode 120: Today, Ann explores what’s happening at Monday.com that caused its stock to drop 20% today - even on the back of a slight earnings beat (hint: the software company pulled guidance amidst the sector “choppiness” introduced by AI like Claude). Then, in the wake of a record number of bets placed on the Super Bowl and significant dips in their stock prices, we look at the bets “traditional” sports gambling apps like DraftKings and FanDuel are making on recently de-regulated prediction markets.  Finally, we zip through market headlines: Novo sues Hims, two offshore drilling services companies unite and Kroger snags a new CEO with a history at a grocery rival.
