Put $312M in perspective 👇

Toy Story 5's opening weekend beat:
— Toy Story 4 ($244M)
— Inside Out 2 ($294M)
— Every other Pixar film ever made

This is the same year box office
is up 16% overall.

The takeaway? When the product is right,
people absolutely still show up
to theaters.

Did you see Toy Story 5 yet? 👇

🎬 ENTERTAINMENT

Toy Story 5 opened, last weekend, to $312M worldwide —
the biggest opening in Pixar history.

$160M domestic. $250M budget.
The plot? The toys vs a tablet, Lilypad.
Taylor Swift's song for it hit #1 globally.

Toys vs Tech — on screen and off.

☕ A data story.

The real reason behind this (proposed) deal 👇

Right now, nearly all of Apple's most
advanced chips are made by ONE company:
TSMC, in Taiwan.

That's a staggering single point of failure —
geopolitically and logistically.

Nvidia and AMD are fighting Apple
for the same limited TSMC capacity.

Partnering with Intel isn't about chip design.
It's about not betting your entire $3T
company on one island.

Should more chips be made in the US? 👇

[Daily Stats & Coffee @StatsCoffee]

💼 BUSINESS

In 2020, Apple dumped Intel chips
to build its own.

Now they may partner again — reports say
Apple will make US chips with Intel
to cut reliance on TSMC. Intel stock +9%.

Note: preliminary, not yet confirmed.

The quiet shift in how we use AI 👇

For two years, "AI" meant ChatGPT.
One app. One habit.

Not anymore. Studies show 1 in 5 AI users
now use multiple platforms —
ChatGPT for quick answers,
Gemini for Google tasks,
Claude for long writing and code.

We don't pick one AI anymore.
We pick the right one for the job.

Are you a one-AI person
or a multi-tool user? 👇

[Daily Stats & Coffee @StatsCoffee]

⚡ TECHNOLOGY

For the first time, ChatGPT fell below 50%
of the AI assistant market — now 46.4%.

Gemini: 27.7%. Claude: 10.3%.

ChatGPT still leads with 1.1B users —
but its share fell from 65% to 46%
in 18 months.

There's strong competition now.

☕ Every stat has a story.

The trend of hours of daylight on select cities.
Summer should never end. 😎

[Daily Stats & Coffee @StatsCoffee]

☀️ LIFESTYLE

June 21 was the longest day of 2026 —
~15 hours of daylight at mid-US latitudes.

Now the slow fade begins. The Northern
Hemisphere loses daylight daily until December.

Summer's light peaks the day it starts.

☕ Data hits different at 7am.

The bittersweet truth about summer 👇

Summer officially begins on the solstice.
But that's also the day daylight peaks.

So from the very first day of summer,
the light is already retreating.

By the time it FEELS like peak summer —
late July, August heat —
we've already lost 30+ minutes of daylight.

The warmth lags. The light leads.
We just don't notice until September.

When does summer feel like it peaks
for you? 👇

The Father's Day vs Mother's Day gap 👇

Father's Day spending 2026: $27.9B
Mother's Day spending 2026: ~$34B

Moms still out-earn dads by ~$6 billion
in gifts every year.

The gap has been remarkably consistent
for decades — though Father's Day
is closing it slowly.

Why do you think the gap exists? 👇

[Daily Stats & Coffee @StatsCoffee]

💼 BUSINESS

Father's Day was on June 21st, last Sunday.
Americans were forecasted to spend a record $27.9B.

$226.58 per person — up 16% from
last year's $24B record.

77% are celebrating.

📊 WEEKLY ROUNDUP ☕

1️⃣ Nvidia made $193.7B from AI chips — vs $16B from gaming. The chip that ran games now runs AI.

2️⃣ A World Cup goal every 28 min — highest-scoring group stage in a generation.

3️⃣ 70M eat at McDonald's daily — more than all of France.

☕ See you Monday.

⚽ SPORTS

A World Cup goal is being scored
every 28 minutes of play.

89 goals in 28 matches — 3.18 per game.
The highest-scoring group stage in a generation.

Just 1 scoreless draw in 24
(there were 4 in 2022).

☕ Data doesn't care about narratives.

[Daily Stats & Coffee @StatsCoffee]

This scoring rate (as of June 18)👇

A goal every 28 minutes of play.

That means in the time it takes to:
— Watch one sitcom episode → ~1 goal
— Cook dinner → 2-3 goals
— Commute home → a full scoreline

The 2026 World Cup isn't just high-scoring.
It's relentless. Barely a stretch
of play without something happening.

of the tournament so far? 👇

Why did WiFi stop chasing speed? 👇

For 25 years every generation
doubled the maximum speed.

Then engineers realized something:
almost nobody uses the speed they have.

Your phone rarely exceeds
half its WiFi capacity.

The real problem isn't peak speed —
it's 30 devices in one house
fighting for the same signal.

WiFi 8 finally solves the right problem:
not faster, but more reliable.

How many devices are on
your home WiFi right now? 👇

[Daily Stats & Coffee @StatsCoffee]

⚡ TECHNOLOGY

WiFi went 5x faster in 5 years.

WiFi 6 (2019): 9.6 Gbps
WiFi 7 (2024): 46 Gbps
WiFi 8 (~2028): same speed, built for reliability

After 25 years chasing raw speed, WiFi 8
changes the game: consistency over peak Gbps.

Why does one park crush all others? 👇

Great Smoky Mountains: 11.5M visitors.
More than double the #2 park.

The secret isn't just the scenery.
It's the price: $0 entry.

When the park was established in 1934,
Tennessee and North Carolina transferred
the land on the condition it stay free forever.

Free + breathtaking + within a day's drive
of a third of the US population.

Which national park is on
your bucket list? 👇
