“The Un-zuckening” — Facebook’s InstaExit. McD’s toy drama. Quantumscape’s 40-year invention.

McDonald’s is facing its biggest fight of the year, and it’s because of… Happy Meals. Quantumscape’s stock jumped because it’s a patent puppy, not profit puppy. And Zuck’s being forced to sell Instagram and Whatsapp — we’re calling it the “ACDC” problem.$QS $MCD $FBGot a SnackFact? Tweet it @RobinhoodSnacks @TBOYJack @NickOfNewYorkWant a shoutout on the pod?

“Jack Daniel’s trilogies” — Brown-Forman’s blockbuster strategy. Stitch Fix’s 40% pop. Uber’s self-drive ditch.

Liquor legend Brown-Forman is borrowing a movie strategy for its top-shelf-ification of Jack Daniel’s. Stitch Fix stock surged 40% because it’s pulling a move straight outta Netflix. And Uber’s selling its self-driving biz… which completely changes our calendar of when self-driving actually arrives.$SFIX $BF $UBERGot a SnackFact?

“Did you just double-dip that chip?” — Spotify’s little secret. David’s Bridal’s dress pivot. Cheesecake Factory’s fib.

Weddings are off, but David’s Bridal emerged from bankruptcy because weddings haven’t changed. We’ve got our 1st publicly-traded company charged with lying in the pandemic: Cheesecake Factory. And Spotify’s stock is up 20% in the last week… and Spotify’s app is up 20 spots in the App Store in the last week.$CAKE $SPOTGot a SnackFact?

“They Macchiato’d a sugarplum” — Dunkin’s experiential thing. Microsoft’s eSports binge. Boeing’s stunt marketing.

Dunkin’ whipped up a color-changing drink and it’s the opposite of every other food chain’s strategy right now. Microsoft just acquired an ecosystem for eSports (still sad it couldn’t buy TikTok). And Boeing stock jumped 8% because stunt marketing works, whether you’re the Brooklyn Bridge or a tainted airplane.$BA $MSFT $AALGot a SnackFact?

“BlackBerry’s back, alright” — BB’s 30% stock u-turn. Sephora’s Inception retail. Zoom’s shrinkage.

Instead of hibernating, BlackBerry’s turned from smartphones to smart cars… and its stock just shot up 30% on an Amazon partnership. Sephora heard our story on Inception Retail, so it’s whipping up its own store-within-a-store. And Zoom’s earnings continue to dominate the Year of Zoom, so we’re looking at why the stock fell 15%.$BB $ZM $KSS $LVMUY $AMZNGot a SnackFact?

“I will protect this Peloton” — Under Armour’s shoe deal. Kustomer’s Facebook love. S&P Global’s $44B splurge.

Probably because they watched that Michael Jordan documentary, Under Armour is launching a Steph Curry shoe brand (but we’ve got a long-term solution for them). Facebook is reportedly dropping $1B for Kustomer because it’s the cherry on Zuck’s 2020 strategy sundae. And S&P Global whipped up the biggest deal of the year at a cool $44B.$UA $PTON $FB $SPGIGot a SnackFact? Tweet it @RobinhoodSnacks @TBOYJack @NickOfNewYorkWant a shoutout on the pod?

We’re gonna call it as we see it: Black Friday is dead, long live Cyber Daily. Pinterest is secretly working on a new project that we think is the future of education. And Slack put up its “Out Of Office” away message last week – but was busy trying to sell itself.$PINS $WORK $CRM $FDXGot a SnackFact?
