Hello and welcome back to Equitythe startup business podcast, where we reveal the numbers and nuances behind the headlines.
Our Monday show covers the latest tech news from the weekend and what’s making headlines earlier in the week. Here’s what we discovered this beautiful morning:
- Stocks and cryptocurrencies: Stocks are higher in Asia, lower in Europe and almost stable in the US. Even more interesting, cryptocurrency prices continue to rise. NFTs are too catching up a little!
- It’s another busy week on the earnings front, which means we’ll be hearing from Uber, Lyft, and HubSpot, among others.
- On the artificial intelligence front, TechCrunch is tracking 01.AI in China, which is now a unicorn, and the latest offering from Elon Musk’s X.AI service. The latter will have some sort of tie-in with X, formerly known as Twitter.
- There is a former Sequoia group in India achieving impressive results.
- Elsewhere in the land of technology, OpenSea cuts staffand the Chinese government is still writing big checks to chip companies. Let’s see how the latter plays out this time.
Stocks return on Wednesday! See you then!
