Mark Zuckerberg is painting Meta Platforms, the company formerly known as Facebook, as an underdog facing an existential crisis. There are lots of reasons for pessimism. The Covid-era trends that played so well to the company's strengths may not last. Apple's privacy changes may cost it around $10 billion in revenue this year. And its reputation isn't improving despite attempts to rebrand it for the metaverse. All of this has sent the stock down 50% since February. Yet, it's not time to feel sorry for the social media giant. Click the link in the bio to find out why. (Via businessweek)

When Chelsea FC play their first home game of the season on Sunday, one of the most closely scrutinized performances will be that of an American billionaire with links to baseball and basketball. Todd Boehly is no stranger to the big leagues: He already holds minority interests in the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Lakers. Now he's added football to the list, leading the group that purchased Chelsea for an eye-watering £4.25 billion ($5.2 billion) after Roman Abramovich's links to Vladimir Putin forced the Russian billionaire to sell the club. Boehly, with his floppy hair and cheerful demeanor, is a stark contrast from his predecessor: more Ted Lasso than brooding oligarch. But having installed himself as the club's interim sporting director, the 48-year-old has shown he's ready to take an active role — and fans are watching. Tap the link in our bio for our profile.

A merchant ship under US sanctions passed Turkey’s Bosphorus Strait on its way from Syria to Russia late last month. It's cargo, according to European intelligence officials: military vehicles for Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine. Russia's supply chains are straining under the pressures of a military campaign now into its sixth month. While Ankara has closed the strait to warships, commercial shipping can still pass through; the Sparta II's journey to the Black Sea underlines the Kremlin's efforts to draft in reinforcements. There are indications the Kremlin has looked elsewhere for additional resources, too — including Iran and North Korea. Tap the link in our bio for the full story.
