📈Our WYNDEX update for today:

After two weeks in the red, the WYNDEX is back in the green, with 3.3% growth, outperforming both S&P and NASDAQ. After a rough stretch, PANW and CARK are back in the green with 6% gains each. But the big story of the week is a massive drop in one of Israel’s golden digital innovators, Monday.com, which shed 29% this week despite posting strong Q2 earnings. 

🎯Our Big Shorts for today:

  • Israeli marketing analytics platform Appsflyer is reportedly in talks to be acquired by a PE firm at a valuation at or above $3.5B

🔎And our Long Play today is an interview with Netta Barak-Corren, a legal scholar and cognitive scientist, law professor at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, about her work combatting Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) targeting of Israeli academia.
