“Sephora doesn’t have 40 shades” — Facebook’s no news down under. Sephora’s Fenty Effect. Nestle’s cat cappuccinos.

The biggest food company on Earth, Nestle teaches the power of the Zillennial pivot. Sephora fell to #3 in US Beauty sales partly because it ignored Rihanna’s Fenty Effect. And Facebook just shut down news in Australia... aka Zuck pulled the nuclear option.$LVMH $NSRGY $FB $GOOGOur Editorial Principles: https://robinhood.com/us/en/support/articles/our-editorial-principles/Got a SnackFact?

“Just rub some Cheetos on it” — SpaceX’s space wifi. Applebee’s influencer kitchen. Texas’ emergency stocks.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is reportedly worth $74B, but it’s not about rockets… it’s about Starlink internet wifi. Applebee’s is launching a virtual brand that we think sets the future for Influencer Kitchens (spoiler: Cheetos chicken wings). And the brutal freeze in Texas reveals a sector that doesn’t get any attention — emergency preparedness. By the way, Lone Star Snackers, we’re sending you warmth and love.$DIN $WMTGot a SnackFact?

“The greatest deal that never happened” — Pinterest’s rejection. Universal’s secret profit puppy. Goldman’s $1K club.

It’s the greatest deal of the year… that never happened: Apparently Microsoft tried (and failed) to acquire Pinterest (so we’ve got a plan for them). Goldman Sachs drops its minimum to become a client from $10M to $1K because Zillennials are its 10-year goal. And the third and final record label is about to go public.$GS $PINS $MSFT $WMGGot a SnackFact?

“FantaZillowing” — Zillow’s dating app. Fluor’s nuclear (stock) option. Disney’s athleticism+.

Zillow owns so much of the homebuying relationship, we think you should compare it to Match Group. Fluor knows nuclear plants are ridiculously expensive, so it’s whipping up a mini version that could help us fight climate change. And Disney’s already built ¾ of Netflix in just 15 months — But live sports is the ticket to beating Netflix. $Z $FLR $DISGot a SnackFact?

“Bumble pulls an Oprah” — Bumble’s IPO. Clubhouse’s Black community. Archer’s flying robo-taxi.

Women-first dating app Bumble pulled off the double-double IPO before Valentine’s Day (but don’t call it a dating app). Clubhouse gets Kanye on-board, but we’re looking at its earliest Black community. And flying robot taxi Archer (sounds scary) shows why big companies keep their enemies close.$BMBL $ACIC $ACHRGot a SnackFact?

“UNO...the card game…the movie” — Mattel’s 25 schmoovies. Twitter’s DIY blitz. GM’s $2B mistake.

Barbie just enjoyed her best sales quarter in 6 years… Now Mattel is going full Disney with a whole new strategy. Twitter announced earnings, but we’re focused on the 5 acquisitions it’s made in 60 days. And General Motors’ stock fell 5% after admitting it’s not a computer — and admitting a $2B mistake.$MAT $TWTR $GMGot a SnackFact?

“r/Reddit$6Billion” — DoorDash’s robot salad. Hawk/Dove stimulus. Reddit valuation doubling.

Fresh after a 5-second Super Bowl ad, Reddit doubles its valuation to $6B. DoorDash just acquired a sushi and salad-making robot because it hates humans. And we’re about to get another stimulus, but it all comes down to 1 conversation between the Hawks and the Doves.$DASH Got a SnackFact?

“1 Bitcoin = 1 Model Y” — Elon’s crypto-for-cars. Hershey’s s’mores surge. Target’s $1B yoga pants.

Elon wants to trade cryptocurrency for Teslas, popping Bitcoin’s price above $45K. Hershey’s gets some investor love before Valentine’s Day thanks to the great s’mores surge. And Target’s athleisure brand hits $1B in sales because the target logo is nowhere to be seen.$BTC $TSLA $HSY $TGTGot a SnackFact?

“Canada Goose + Yeti + Resto Hardware" — The Goose’s strategic uniform. Snapchat’s augmented everything. 23andMe’s DNA SPAC.

Canada Goose shares surged because it had been forgotten by Wall Street. Snapchat collects less data on you than every other social media… because it’s betting on AR to make more money. And 23andMe is using a Hollywood SPAC to take DNA public.$GOOS $SNAP $VGACGot a SnackFact?

“The 1st pureplay Super Bowl stock” — Apple’s iCar. Wingstop’s stock pop. End of the S.U.M.O.

Apple and Kia just took their biggest steps yet to make iCar a thing: It’s not a First Mover, it’s a Second Shaker. Wingstop’s stock popped because chicken wing prices are living their best lives for the Super Bowl. And a subtle change may mean you don’t have to be knighted to invest in big pre-IPO startups (no more SUMO’ing - straight up missing out). $WING $AAPLSend us your Black History Month SnackFact here:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Hu00HOlQ-qb6S7Jx4CgnGOfzrA67_j_SLFqxvFKinEQ/editWant a shoutout on the pod?
