Summary

Hello and welcome back to Equity, a podcast about the business of startups, where we unpack the numbers and nuance behind the headlines. Don’t forget that the code “EQUITY” can save you money on Disrupt tickets and TechCrunch+ access. And it makes us here on the show look good! Markets: Stocks are largely down around the world, yet set to rise here on American exchanges. Perhaps the domestic selloff is pausing? Elsewhere in the world of money, cryptocurrencies are boring in the last week. Startups: Big news from TikTok, including notes on how quickly it has been adding revenue in Europe and the fact that the social network is forging ahead with a new social shopping effort in the United States. And, Talk360 added even more dosh to its recent funding round, which TechCrunch dug into here. Quick Hits: Kim Kardashian is in trouble for crypto promotions past, to the tune of a seven-figure settlement. That's a lot of capital, frankly, and we're curious who will be next under the SEC's hammer. Oh, and Tesla delivery numbers are in, and the markets are not happy. Don't Forget: Equity is kicking off Disrupt in just a few weeks. Come hang out! Woot! We are out of here for now. Catch you soon! Equity drops every Monday at 7 a.m. PT and Wednesday and Friday at 6 a.m. PT, so subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Spotifyand all the casts. TechCrunch also has a great show on crypto, a show that interviews founders, a show that details how our stories come together and more! Credits: Equity is produced by Theresa Loconsolo with editing by Kell. Bryce Durbin is our Illustrator. We'd also like to thank the audience development team and Henry Pickavet, who manages TechCrunch audio products. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:28.8

2022. We are moving on and that means a lot of data is coming our way more on that in just a second but before we do don't forget if you use the code equity you can say 15% off your disrupt tickets that show is coming up in like two weeks, not that I'm nervous at all,

0:44.6

and I think the Code Equity still works for Tech Ranch Plus if you want to save some money.

0:48.4

Whoo, all right now, to work.

Let's start with a look at the global markets and as to work.

0:52.6

Let's start with a look at the global markets and as always we're going to kick off with my

favorite thing in the entire world, stocks.

In Asia, Japanese stocks are up, Korean and Chinese shares are sharply down this morning,

because they're going to be flooding in. They will give us a final and I think better look at what happened in the most recent quarter.

1:37.0

We're always curious where there was strength and of course what we can glean from late stage valuations.

1:42.0

Also note that we should see at least one S1 filing this quarter from a company that we care about.

1:46.9

Kof Kof, Instacart.

1:49.2
