Uber (UBER) is a global mobility and delivery platform that connects consumers to transportation, food, groceries, freight, and increasingly, autonomous vehicles.

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers McDonald’s (MCD) Q2 2025 earnings call.
McDonald’s (MCD) is the world’s largest fast-food restaurant company, operating in over 100 countries under a largely franchised model, with more than 95% of locations operated by franchisees. McDonald’s is not just a food brand; it’s a global cultural icon and a bellwether for consumer behavior, pricing power, and economic sentiment across income levels. In Q2, McDonald’s reported 3.8% global comp sales growth, driven by strong execution in international markets, particularly Germany, France, and Australia. While US traffic remained weak, especially among low-income consumers, franchisees backed national pricing moves, like the $2.99 Snack Wrap, to reinforce value. The company discussed tech transformation, including AI and IoT via Google-powered Edge computing, now in hundreds of US stores. Loyalty members in the US visit 2.5x more frequently, and globally McDonald’s reached 185M 90-day active users. MCD shares rose roughly 3% on 8/6 in reaction to EPS and a revenue beat…

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Rivian’s (RIVN) Q2 2025 earnings call.
Rivian (RIVN) designs and manufactures electric vehicles, including the R1T pickup, R1S SUV, and commercial delivery vans (EDVs). It’s known for vertically integrating its software, battery, and autonomous tech stack, giving it full control over product innovation. The company primarily serves high-end consumers seeking rugged EVs with premium performance as well as commercial partners like Amazon, which has committed to tens of thousands of EDVs. What sets Rivian apart is its ambitious scalability plan, anchored by the mid-priced R2 platform, and its push into autonomy, micromobility (via its “Also” spin-off), and in-house software licensing, highlighted by a $5B partnership with Volkswagen. Rivian stayed focused on the upcoming R2 launch, confirming it has already sourced 100% of the vehicle’s components at a bill of materials 50% lower than R1. The company plans to begin production in early 2026 from its Normal, IL, plant. Autonomy was a major theme, touting its AI-driven sensor fusion platform and teasing hands-free, eyes-off capability by 2026. Regulatory headwinds, like the loss of $140M in expected credit revenue, forced Rivian to revise its 2025 gross profit and EBITDA guidance. Yet optimism remained high, with management reiterating confidence in achieving breakeven EBITDA by 2027. RIVN shares fell as much as 5% after the close on 8/5 in reaction to mixed results…

Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Caterpillar’s (CAT) Q2 2025 earnings call.
Caterpillar (CAT) is the world’s leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, diesel and natural gas engines, industrial gas turbines, and diesel-electric locomotives. Its products help power infrastructure, resource extraction, and energy development across the globe. The company serves construction contractors, mining firms, energy producers, and governments. Its performance gives deep insight into infrastructure spending, commodity cycles, and economic health across regions. Caterpillar posted a mixed Q2 as it managed strong demand but warned of mounting tariff headwinds. Despite a 1% YoY sales decline to $16.6B, adjusted operating margin reached 17.6%, beating internal expectations thanks to cost controls. Tariffs are now expected to reduce 2025 profits by $1.3–$1.5B, yet management is holding off on longer-term mitigation until the trade environment stabilizes. The backlog hit a record $37.5B, supported by robust orders in all three segments. Power generation, particularly for data centers, surged 28%, with Caterpillar planning years in advance with hyperscale clients. North American construction remained strong, and dealer rental loading is expected to rebound in the second half of the year. On mixed results, CAT shares headed into the close flat on 8/5 after an up-and-down session…
