Spirit Goes Bust; Walmart Is The New Target; AI Poaching

Welcome to Snacks Mix! Nia Warfield and Jack Raines run through the week’s market maze, as crypto goes crazy; the reckoning over mass deportation begins; and an AI chip war looms. The Story Everyone IS Talking About: Spirit goes bust. Why can't a low-cost airline cut it in America? The Story Everyone SHOULD Be Talking About: Target vs WalMart. Surprising earnings indicate where American consumers are headed. The Story Everyone WILL Be Talking About: It's not just chips and infrastructure that will determine whether the US or China emerge in the AI wars -- human capital plays a huge part too. Plus: Another taste of our new Sherwood show -- The Sherwood Ten. Check it out wherever you get your podcasts! Wanna get in touch?
