Equity Monday: Robotaxis hit a speed bump and IPOs are back on the menu

Listen Later

Our Monday show covers the latest in tech news from the weekend and what’s making headlines early in the week. Here’s the rundown from this morning, with real news from the crypto-front, and even a neat startup round to round it out!

  • Stocks are up in most of the world, China apart. The Chinese economy is a real topic of conversation lately, mostly centered around concerns regarding credit appetite, debt levels, housing costs, and government activity.
  • In the crypto-world, prices are sharply lower compared to a week ago, and Recur is no more.
  • The partial retrenchment of Cruise in San Francisco is a bummer, but given how poor human drivers are here's hoping that progress doesn't slow on the self-driving front.
  • IPOs are back? Kinda, maybe, and perhaps. The good news is that recent data from Instacart and Databricks indicate that we could see some filings soon.
  • And to close out, Threads is coming to the desktop web while Enough put together a big round for mushroom-based proteins.

    • For episode transcripts and more, head to Equity’s Simplecast website.

    Equity drops at 7 a.m. PT every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, so subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotify and all the casts. TechCrunch also has a great show on crypto, a show that interviews founders and more!
