How expensive is the S&P 500 right now? Four ways to count.

- Price/Sales: 3.5x (all-time high, higher than 2000)
- Price/Book: 5.5x (all-time high)
- Forward P/E: 26x (at the 2000 dotcom peak)
- Dividend Yield: 1% (near a record low)

Three of these are at levels last seen at the dotcom peak.

The fourth one is the price you're paying for the privilege.

OpenAI could have used a PROOF report before acquiring the TPBN podcast 🤔

the @ApplePodcasts charts are so broken with people spamming web plays on apple, overlaying reviews and ratings shows you an interesting network

Acast looks like the only one with HLS ad markers in their apple video. Pre, mid, and post-roll all in the asset list

Art19 doing something interesting where they use signed URLs so no one can tell difference between content and ads (smart since the HLS is DRM-free)

[Ken Beyer @KenBeyer309]

Videos are live in @ApplePodcasts and they look great! Very excited about what this opens up for creators and advertisers.

Apple Podcasts is the first platform to move away from the walled-garden model for videos, letting creators programmatically monetize their own videos.

@YahooSports I'd hire a Big 10 grad over an Ivy League grad any day. The midwest integrity and work ethic can't be taught.

@johnspurlock according to youtube, people love to re listen to the host-read ads over and over again! 🤔

[Ken Beyer @KenBeyer309]

@johnspurlock it's in podcasting too. bad actors use bot network, limited to 1x per day for IAB, so they create a ton of AI shows

fortunately we're doing a good job at identifying them and blocking them, but they are filled with ads from Libsyn, Simplecast, etc.
