This week we dig into the very viral Ben & Jerry’s saga - Jerry stepping away after 47 years, the Unilever peace-deal-gone-fraught, and what it really costs to put values ahead of vanilla. We unpack the “independent within a conglomerate” merger setup, the Gaza/Israel flashpoint that turbo-charged tensions, and why brave exits can still break your heart (and your P&L). Then it’s a rapid-fire news: TikTok staying in the U.S. via a new consortium and a licensed algorithm (hello, governance plot twist), China easing up on Google, chatter about shifting U.S. company reporting to twice-yearly, Klarna’s float and first-week vibes, Tesla’s big rebound plus a hefty insider buy (cue our “ethics vs returns” debate), and Sophie’s surprise portfolio hero, SharkNinja. Share, rate, and drop your thoughts - would you invest in Tesla or is that a hard pass?
