About this episode

In this episode, we dig into some big moves across markets. Spotify is shaking things up with Daniel Ek stepping down as CEO and a new co-CEO model taking over. Nike finally posts sales growth after a tough stretch, but margins remain under pressure as rivals like On and Hoka keep gaining ground. Algoma Steel gets a $500M government loan as tariffs hammer its U.S. exports, raising questions about its future. We also break down Air Canada’s revised guidance following its labour dispute, and take a look at Costco’s strong results and what its valuation means for investors.
