Topics
Neil Freiman: 我关注到Apple TV+ 每年亏损 10 亿美元的新闻,这引发了人们对Apple TV+商业模式的质疑。虽然对于苹果公司整体来说,这笔亏损微不足道,但它仍然是一个值得关注的问题。此外,我还关注到迪士尼真人版《白雪公主》票房失利的消息,这或许反映了市场对真人版迪士尼电影的疲软需求。 关于经济衰退的讨论,我认为网络上的迷因反映了人们对经济的焦虑情绪,但经济硬数据显示经济状况相对健康。我们讨论了各种经济指标,包括“口红指数”和“内衣指数”,这些指标都反映了人们的消费行为与经济状况之间的关系。虽然这些指标并非完美无缺,但它们提供了一种观察经济状况的补充视角。 我还关注到零食消费下降的趋势,这可能预示着经济放缓。总的来说,虽然经济硬数据显示经济状况良好,但软数据和消费趋势的变化值得我们关注。 最后,我还关注到波音公司获得了一份价值 200 亿美元的国防合同,这将对波音公司产生积极影响。关于这份合同,也存在一些争议,例如有人质疑是否应该更多地投资无人机而不是有人驾驶飞机。 Toby Howell: 我同意Neil的观点,Apple TV+的巨额亏损确实令人担忧。虽然苹果公司财力雄厚,但这笔亏损仍然表明他们的流媒体战略存在问题。他们或许需要重新评估其内容策略和商业模式。 关于经济衰退的讨论,我认为网络迷因反映了人们对经济的焦虑情绪,这与一些经济软数据相符。但正如Neil所说,经济硬数据显示经济状况相对健康。我们讨论了各种经济指标,包括“口红指数”和“内衣指数”,这些指标都反映了人们的消费行为与经济状况之间的关系。 关于零食消费下降,我认为这是一个值得关注的趋势,它可能预示着经济放缓。 对于波音公司获得的国防合同,我认为这是一个积极的信号,这将有助于波音公司走出困境。但是,关于这份合同也存在一些争议,例如有人质疑是否应该更多地投资无人机而不是有人驾驶飞机。 此外,我还关注到IPO市场的复苏迹象,Klarna、CoreWeave和StubHub等公司的IPO申请表明投资者对风险资产的兴趣正在回升。这将对整个市场产生积极影响。最后,我还关注到美国职棒大联盟在日本的开幕日取得了巨大的成功,这表明棒球运动在日本的普及程度很高。

  • Use of soft data (consumer surveys) and hard data (jobs numbers) to assess economic health

  • Historical use of behavioral indicators like the Lipstick Index and Men's Underwear Index
