BREAKING NEWS

🎮 eBay Said No. And They Were Not Polite About It.

"Neither credible nor attractive." That is a corporate rejection letter written by someone who was genuinely annoyed.

eBay's board officially rejected GameStop's $56 billion takeover bid Tuesday morning, citing serious doubts about how Cohen planned to actually pay for it. The board also flagged concerns about GameStop's corporate governance, executive pay structure, and the sheer amount of debt the combined company would carry. It was not a soft no. It was a door slam.

The market had already sniffed this out. $EBAY never traded anywhere near the $125 offer price, sitting around $107 the entire time. Today it fell another 1% on the news. $GME dropped 4%. Nobody is surprised. The deal was always priced for failure.

Here is the problem Cohen faced from day one. GameStop had $9 billion in cash and a $20 billion commitment letter from TD Bank. That still left a significant funding gap to close a $56 billion deal. eBay's board found that gap and used it as the primary reason to walk away.

But this is not necessarily over. Cohen had already said publicly he was prepared to take the offer directly to eBay shareholders and call a special meeting, bypassing the board entirely. That is a proxy fight. Expensive, messy, and very Ryan Cohen.

The Munch Take: We said from day one this was a long shot. Offering to buy a company four times your size, with half the payment in meme stock, without telling the target company first, is not a traditional acquisition strategy. Cohen is smart and has surprised people before. But eBay's board just called his bluff in writing and put it on the record. The next move is his. If he walks away, this was the most expensive press release in recent memory. If he goes hostile, things get genuinely interesting. Either way, his autographed pizza slice probably is not going to close the funding gap.

Next Trillion-Dollar Computing Empire? (Ad)

The shift from the PC to the iPhone minted trillion-dollar empires for brands like Apple, Google, and Microsoft.

But today, the "old guard" of mobile dominance is facing a new successor: The light-weight AR/VR Glasses platform.

One company is positioned to own the entire market.

Immersed conquered the software layer as the Meta Quest Store's #1 work app. 1.5M users depend on it, many up to 40-60 hours a week.

Now, they're launching the hardware layer to complement it. It's why execs from Sailpoint, Intel, and more have invested.

The company has officially reserved their NASDAQ ticker $IMRS.

CHART OF THE DAY

🍫 Your Chocolate Is Getting More Expensive. Here Is Why.

I checked my credit card statement last week and nearly fell off my chair at what I had spent on chocolate. I was ready to have a serious conversation with myself about my habits. Turns out it wasn’t me. It was cocoa prices. I feel much better now.

Cocoa just had its fourth-best day in history, ripping over 12% in a single session.

Three things hit at the same time:

• 💵 The US dollar weakened, which automatically makes commodities priced in dollars more expensive. A massive number of traders had been betting cocoa would fall, and when it ripped instead, they all rushed to close their losing bets at once, sending prices even higher. Classic short squeeze.

• 🌦️ El Niño is threatening next year's harvest in Ivory Coast and Ghana, which together produce over 60% of the world's cocoa. StoneX just cut its global surplus forecast nearly in half. Less supply coming means higher prices now.

• 🛢️ The prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz is raising shipping costs, fuel prices, and fertilizer costs for cocoa farmers in West Africa. The Iran war is now showing up in your chocolate bar.

For context, cocoa futures hit an all-time high of nearly $13,000 per tonne in late 2024 before crashing back down to around $4,700 today. So while today's move feels dramatic, we are still well below the peak.

Can traders take advantage? Yes, but carefully. Cocoa futures trade on the NYMEX and ICE exchanges in contracts of 10 metric tonnes each. Retail investors can get exposure through commodity ETFs that hold agricultural futures. But this market moves fast and hard in both directions. Today's 12% gain can become next week's 12% loss if El Niño fears ease or the Iran situation resolves.

The Munch Take: Your chocolate bar is not getting cheaper anytime soon. The head of Lindt said publicly that cocoa prices will never return to where they were before. That is a man who makes chocolate for a living, telling you this is the new normal. The Iran war is now affecting everything from gas stations to grocery stores to your afternoon Kit Kat. It all connects. My wife told me to stop buying expensive chocolate last month. I told her I was hedging against commodity inflation. She was not impressed. She is rarely impressed.
