Summary
Would you pay $900 for a pair of new sneakers that were already dirty? Golden Goose is selling that, branding it “pre-distressed” — And they’re about to IPO at a $3B valuation.
Hollywood had its worst summer opening weekend at the box office since 1995 — But the “theater of the summer” is gonna be big: 4D movie theaters that you can smell, taste, and even feel.
