Prof G Markets: The Failure of FTX, Why HBO Will be Acquired, and the Cannabis Industry



On this week’s video of Prof G Markets, an unfiltered cut of our podcast Scott shares his thoughts on how Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto exchange FTX came crashing down like a house of cards. He then explains what Disney’s earnings reveal about a streaming market headed for consolidation, and why HBO makes for an appealing acquisition target. And in this week’s Unpack, we check in on the cannabis industry after the recent midterms, and learn where the investment opportunities might be.
