This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit downround.substack.comSports betting. It's an enduring part of Australian culture, where having a flutter on your sport of choice is as natural as breathing oxygen, or putting your paycheque through the pokies, or having a flutter on something else like the dishlickers at Wentworth Park. But sports betting is even more topical now that it has swept through the US in the wake of a Supreme Court decision back in 2018. Now it looks like Australia's obsessive sports betting culture is hitting the global mainstream.To dig through the detritus of the tech-enabled sports betting universe, we're joined by Down Round repeat guest Mark Di Stefano, a reporter at the Australian Financial Review.

With the arrival of the pandemic, and the implementation of lockdowns all around the world, investors and founders seized on the idea that this would permanently transform our lives - with a sharp focus on the way we shop and pay. The E-Commerce giants certainly agreed. Amazon's famous forecasting tool told them to build, build, build, and Shopify told investors they believed pandemic E-Commerce gains will stick because quote “convenience is habit-forming”. Venture capitalists followed, injecting $78b into E-Commerce companies in 2021 - and it was reflected in the hot stocks of that time - Afterpay, Peloton, Etsy. Three very different companies, but all pandemic powerhouses. Fast forward to 2022, this has all changed. Venture Capital funding for eCommerce is down 42% from the same period last year. Share prices have fallen, staff are being laid off, and companies are declaring bankruptcy.

Entre los 34 países en crisis que distingue la IRC están Colombia, El Salvador y Venezuela. “Estamos lidiando con una crisis global, pero antes existían otras crisis humanitarias. No significa que con el covid-19 pararon, y no podemos suponer que todos los países tienen la capacidad de responder usando las recomendaciones de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS)”, explicó a CNN en Español Meghan López, directora regional de América Latina para el IRC.
