Sobre este episodio
Investors weren’t exactly wrong to be excited about the companies trying to make meal kits and plant-based meat cool. But they sure haven’t made any money from those bets. So … what went wrong? Patrick Badolato is an Associate Professor of Instruction at the McCoombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin, where he teaches Accounting. He joins Ricky Mulvey for a conversation about companies that have opened the door for genuinely exciting opportunities, but haven’t yet been able to figure out a workable business model. They also discuss: Expanding your definition of competition. Why Blue Apron and Beyond Meat haven’t taken off like their IPO investors hoped. Whether Coca-Cola is at risk of becoming a “Cabbage Patch concept.” Companies/tickers discussed: KR, ACI, BYND, MCD, KO, NVDA, CELH, PEP, YETI Host: Ricky Mulvey Guest: Patrick Badolato Producer: Mary Long Engineer: Dan Boyd, Rick Engdahl Learn more about your ad choices.
