As a small heads up, we had a bonus show over the weekend that is well worth your time! Alright, here’s what’s on the show this morning:
<ul>
<li>Stocks are up around the world: A good note to start the week on, of course. In the meantime, the crypto market is still dragging. We’re back to minimal week-over-week price movements.</li>
<li>Tech IPOs are back: After a drought that will be talked about for years, it’s raining tech IPOs again! Instacart and Klaviyo have filed their Form S-1s to go public, and we are busy digesting the numbers.</li>
<li>On the Instacart front, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/08/25/instacart-s1-five-takeaways/">read our first impressions here</a>. In short, the company’s trailing performance is super solid, but the question is, how much it can scale total transaction volume in the future.</li>
<li>We are still getting our boots on when it comes to Klaviyo, but the business seems strong. Is it the <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/08/21/everyones-talking-about-tech-ipos-again/">champion that software companies have waited for</a>? We’ll have to see. More to come on the site later today.</li>
<li>And <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/08/27/teslas-china-rival-xpeng-buys-ride-hailing-giant-didis-smart-ev-assets-for-744m/">Didi is selling part of its business to Xpeng</a>. This is not the first time we’ve seen a ride-hailing company divest non-core assets.</li>
</ul>
Don’t forget that Equity is opening <a href="https://techcrunch.com/events/tc-disrupt-2023/">this year’s Disrupt</a>. We’ll see you there!
