Mornings on 2: The Super Bowl Ad Gamble & Diamond Rings Crane Game

from Dollars & Sense with Pam Cook

In today’s Dollars & Sense, Pam discusses the high-stakes world of Super Bowl advertising and ask if those multi-million dollar slots are a savvy investment or merely expensive vanity projects. While the marketing world braces for the big game, Wall Street is seeing a significant shift as tech stocks slide due to heavy profit-taking and a rotation into blue-chip stability. We also highlight a historic moment at the New York Stock Exchange where Citi CFO Mark Mason rang the opening bell to honor Black History Month. The tech landscape continues to shift with a major satellite partnership between Amazon and AT&T, while Netflix faces intense Senate scrutiny over its massive $83 billion bid for Warner Brothers Discovery. Closer to home, Bay Area theme parks kick off a massive hiring spree, and Dave & Buster’s is raising the stakes for Valentine’s Day with a "human crane" game featuring diamond rings worth thousands of dollars.
