Episode 227: Today, Ann surveys Stripe and private equity firm Advent International's $53 billion bid for PayPal - and whether going private could help revive the payments giant after years of struggles. Then, we dive back into earnings with reports from Johnson & Johnson, Conagra Brands and Cartier-owner Richemont. We also unpack the latest macro developments, including the newly released Producer Price Index and key takeaways from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's second day on Capitol Hill. Finally, we answer a listener's question with a deep dive into entertainment company Cineverse and its bet that a string of acquisitions will fuel future growth. www.brewmarkets.com Subscribe to the Brew Markets newsletter: https://www.morningbrew.com/brew-mark...Follow Brew Markets on social:Instagram: instagram.com/brewmarketsTikTok: tiktok.com/@brewmarketsX: x.com/brewmarketsFollow Ann Berry on social:Instagram: instagram.com/annberry_nycX: x.com/AnnBerry_NYCListen to Brew Markets Here: swap.fm/l/9Qk4z73Z2nEwFiCB4qeeWatch Brew Markets Here:⁠ https://www.youtube.com/@BrewMarketsStocks mentioned:$CNVS $PYPL $JNJ $CAG $CFRUY $CNVSThe content shared on this podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only and should not be considered financial, legal, or investment advice.
