  • Why Reebok’s founder is taking on the new footwear trade war
    Reebok co-founder Joe Foster and young entrepreneur Ben Weiss are looking to disrupt the status quo in the footwear industry by creating the Syntilay brand. The footwear brand began making AI-created sneakers earlier this year with no sizes and a $150 price tag, and is attempting to use its learnings to scale up its business model. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with Reebok co-founder Joe Foster and Syntilay CEO Ben Weiss. Foster co-founded Reebok in 1958 and exited the business in 1991. That’s after a stretch creating some of the world’s pre-eminent running sneakers, going toe to toe with the likes of Nike (NKE) and Adidas (ADS.DE). Reebok found initial success in female aerobic gyms following its shoes being worn by Jane Fonda. In the years since Foster’s exit, Adidas purchased Reebok for $3.8 billion and sold it to Authentic Brands Group for $2.5 billion in 2022 after years of underperformance. Today, the brand is aiming to reestablish itself in the basketball sneaker market amid the backing of NBA greats Allen Iverson and Shaquille O’Neal. Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid Unfiltered brings you a high-octane take on the freshest analyst calls, wildest stock moves, and shrewdest commentary in the business world. Executive Editor Brian Sozzi puts Wall Street's finest through their paces in this essential conversation for every investor, before the stock market opens.

  • US debt surge: CEO of the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund weighs in
    The Trump administration is still reportedly keen on starting a sovereign wealth fund. But details have been scant since initial news hit the public in early February. Even if a US sovereign wealth fund gets developed, it will have a hard time amassing the size of Norway’s. Norway has the largest sovereign wealth fund in the world with more than $1.8 trillion in investments spanning stocks, fixed income and real estate. It owns close to 9,000 stocks. Looked at another way, Norway’s sovereign wealth fund owns almost 1.5% of all shares in the world’s listed companies. Some well known holdings include Tesla (TSLA), Nvidia (NVDA), Google (GOOG), among many others. In charge of managing this fund - which was established in 1990 to diversify from Norway’s oil revenue – is Norges Investment Management CEO Nicolai Tangen. Tangen joined as CEO in September 2020 after a successful run as a top hedge fund manager. He gained another five year term as CEO earlier this year, extending his run atop the fund at least until 2030. Yahoo Finance executive editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid podcast with Tangen about how he invests and what’s next for markets. Tangen is also the host of the In Good Company podcast, where he interviews other CEOs usually of companies the fund is invested in. Some headline grabbing interviews have included with Twitter founder and Block (XYZ) CEO Jack Dorsey, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, and Elliot Management founder Paul Singer.

  • Inside the pre-July 4 stock market melt-up
    In case you missed it, summer is here, judging by the extreme heat gripping the United States. While many power players on Wall Street often use the summer months to hang out on their gas-guzzling yachts or to go on lavish vacations to faraway lands, we are doing anything but here at Yahoo Finance!

To that end, we want to highlight some of the most actionable points from our recent chats on Opening Bid Unfiltered. Consider this your guide to understanding the economy and the reasons for the market’s pre-July 4th melt-up.

  • Ochocinco lived at work, Diplo sells his catalog
    Some celebrities are as savvy with their money as a typical Wall Street money manager. The only difference is that oftentimes these celebrities have more money than the money manager! Two examples of financial savviness come from NFL great Chad Ochocinco and renowned DJ and producer Diplo. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid podcast from Cannes Lions with both celebrities about how they manage their money and why. Ochocinco — a former star wide receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals — says he slept in his team’s training facility for two years to save money. Diplo says he has sold 75% of his music catalog to fund investments elsewhere.
