It''s time to accept the fact that there are too many publicly traded companies right now that are either not viable businesses models or are too closely overlapping with similar ones that would make more sense as a combination. Yes, that includes Peloton. I have never seen the rumor mill churn out speculation as quickly as in the case of this stock. Wow. Who decided Peloton was Too Cool to Fail? I get it, the instructors are hot and the bike feels like the real deal. But what does Apple want with a bike? One of the two in my building is already broken after 18 months. Are these things even meant for multi-person use? Maybe Apple would like to have its original programming on the Peloton screen, but why''s it need a warehouse full of exercise equipment that no one''s buying right now? Why would Nike want it? Lululemon''s Mirror purchase is doing Full story available on Benzinga.

S&P 500, Nasdaq slip as Pfizer, megacap stocks drag
04:22pm, Tuesday, 08'th Feb 2022 Business Recorder
The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq declined on Tuesday as disappointing earnings from Pfizer and declines in megacap technology names added to jitters ahead of inflation data this week that could spark bets on quicker interest rate hikes. Pfizer Inc fell 5.3% after the drugmaker''s full-year sales forecast for its COVID-19 vaccine and antiviral pills fell short of Wall Street estimates. Facebook-owner Meta Platforms fell 1.4% after billionaire investor Peter Thiel decided to step down from the company''s board. The stock is down for a fourth session after its bleak forecast wiped out billions of dollars in market value last week. Other high-growth stocks like Google-owner Alphabet Inc and Amazon.com Inc fell 1% each, while big banks like Bank of America Corp and JPMorgan Chase & Co jumped 2.5% each. "We''ve got a rising interest rate environment which we haven''t seen since 2018 and there are a lot of investors in high growth names that continue to see weakness," said Dennis Dick, a trader at Bright Trading LLC in Las Vegas. "You''re going to see money rotate to lower multiple names and more value-oriented market." Seven of the eleven major S&P 500 sectors declined, with energy leading the fall.

12:26pm, Tuesday, 08'th Feb 2022 Zero Hedge
Peloton Tumbles After CEO Steps Down, Company Fires 2,800 Making Imminent Sale Unlikely Peloton Chief Executive Officer John Foley will step down and become executive chair in a victory for activist investor Blackwells Capital which had campaigned for his departure/// and in a loss for all those who were hoping the company would quickly sell itself to Amazon, Nike or some other potential acquiror. As the WSJ first reported, Barry McCarthy, former CEO at Spotify, will become CEO and president, Peloton said in a statement Tuesday. Peloton also said about 2,800 global jobs would be cut, affecting around 20% of corporate positions as part of its dismal earnings release posted earlier today. In order to position itself for sustainable growth - which again means no immediate sale - the company is reducing its owned and operated warehouses and delivery teams, although Peloton’s roster of instructors and "breadth and depth of its content" will not be impacted by the initiatives. The company will also reduce its planned capital expenditures in 2022 by approximately $150 million.
Peloton is replacing its CEO and cutting around 2,800 jobs
11:15am, Tuesday, 08'th Feb 2022 Engadget
Peloton grew massively during the COVID-19 pandemic, but now that things are opening up, it has struggled to maintain growth. Now, the company is shaking things up by replacing its CEO, overhauling the board and laying off around 20 percent of its corporate workforce, according to The Wall Street Journal . CEO and co-founder John Foley is stepping down as CEO to become executive chairman and will be replaced by former Spotify COO Barry McCarthy, the company told the WSJ . McCarthy will reportedly bring his understanding of content-driven subscription models to Peloton. "I have always thought there has to be a better CEO for Peloton than me," said Foley said. "Barry is more perfectly suited than anybody I could’ve imagined." On top of that, the company is cutting around 2,800 corporate positions. On top of its financial struggles, Peloton has been hit by bad press over equipment safety , unpaid employees and even not-so-positive mentions in recent TV shows. With the value of the company tumbling from a peak of $50 billion to around $8 billion last week, it has been a subject of takeover rumors from the likes of Amazon, Nike and even Apple.
