Price-Check — Spider-Man's $927M Weekend, Microsoft's $450B Day & Waymo's Parking Problem

from Wit & Grit Podcast · host Wit and Grit Podcast

Spider-Man: Brand New Day had the second biggest opening weekend in movie history. Microsoft gained $450 billion in market cap in a single day — more than Nike, McDonald's, and Starbucks combined. A glass bottle of water is LA's new status symbol at $4-6. Waymo's self-driving taxis racked up $9,325 in parking tickets in Austin with nobody disputing them. A Scottish runner broke the mile world record that stood for 27 years. And YKK has a near-monopoly on the global zipper market and most people have no idea. Ian Price and Sean Duiser run the numbers on Wit & Grit Price-Check.New episodes every week at WitAndGritPod.com.
