Listen "How to invest in companies going VIRAL!"
Episode Synopsis
                            Welcome to Stocktails, your latest excuse to shake (not stir) up your investment ideas. Ally Selby and Armina Rosenberg (aka “Arms”) join forces in a podcast that delivers a healthy dose of investment insights alongside some cocktail chaos. In each episode, we mix drinks, dissect stocks and try not to set the kitchen on fire.In this episode, we're taking a deep dive into the companies that are breaking the internet with TikTok-famous products. Take Pop Mart (HKG: 9992), for example, which has seen its share price skyrocket 589% over the last 12 months as Labubus (check out these fear-inducing monsters in the image below) became one of the scarcest resources on the planet. Or Samyang Foods (KRX: 003230), the creator of Buldak Ramen, which is up five times since late 2023 and is now Korea's biggest food and beverage stock by market cap. So, is there something in investing in companies with viral products? You'll have to watch this episode to find out.
