Sport

Past performance does not predict future returns. You may get back less than you originally invested. Reference to specific securities is not intended as a recommendation to purchase or sell any investment.

In this episode of Global Infusions, Tom and Tom look into the business of sport. Who is making all the money, and how? They explore why football clubs are often bad businesses, why TV rights are worth so much even as viewership falls, and how endorsements have grown into an industry of their own. They also discuss a hotdog that has defied inflation for almost 40 years, chips designed by AI, military preparedness, and extreme weather in Europe wreaking havoc on food production. Finally, they reflect on press articles from the 19th century showing that some things never change.
