"Shark Tank" is full of success stories and failures with investors like Kevin O'Leary and Mark Cuban investing in companies that appear on the popular investment <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41271567/mark-cuban-reflects-on-shark-tanks-enduring-success-the-american-dream-is-alive-and-well">pitch show for entrepreneurs.</a>
A $1.9 billion acquisition by PepsiCo (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) announced Monday traces its roots back to an appearance on "Shark Tank" and both Cuban and O'Leary passed on investing in the company.
"Shark Tank" Success Story: On Monday, PepsiCo<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44358047/pepsico-bets-big-on-prebiotic-sodas-with-1-95-billion-poppi-acquisition-details"> announced the $1.9 billion acquisition</a> of fast-growing prebiotic soda company poppi.
The company has grown over the years and grew increased national attention with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43598736/super-bowl-commercials-2025-complete-list-of-super-bowl-lix-ads-and-companies-behind-them">Super Bowl commercials</a> in both 2024 and 2025.
Monday's acquisition put a spotlight back on the company's 2018 <a href="https://x.com/darrenrovell/status/1901625038542966893">appearance </a>on "Shark Tank," when the company was then known as Mother Beverage.
Husband and wife co-founders Stephen and Allison Ellsworth appeared on the "Shark Tank" episode seeking $400,000 for a 10% stake in their company.
The duo may have scared away early interest having the sharks take shots of an undisclosed beverage, which turned out to be apple cider vinegar. The taste test was done to highlight how Allison had concocted beverages that included apple cider vinegar and tasted good.
While the sharks agreed that many of the samples tasted good, they quickly exited and left only one guest shark to make an offer.
Guest shark Bethenny Frankel said it was a disaster to manufacture the beverages themselves and couldn't believe they didn't have a partner.
"You're still in the kitchen," Frankel said before she said she was out on any deal.
O'Leary said every beverage company comes into "Shark Tank" and says the future is so bright that you have to wear shades.
"The valuation is insane," O'Leary said, announcing he was out on the deal.
 Cuban told the couple his fear was they would have to raise a lot more money.
"As much as I would like to help a Dallas company, I'm out," Cuban said.
Shark Lori Greiner also exited telling the couple that she would be a customer, but not a partner.
The last remaining shark was guest shark Rohan Oza, who had experience in the consumer products sector.
"Beverage is savage," Oza said.
The investor said the mathematics for a company that's done $250,000 in sales in three months would have to have a different equity stake that they probably wouldn't like.
"For $400k for me to get interested, it's got to be like 25% stake," Oza said.
The other sharks encouraged the couple to take the deal.
"We'd love to do business with you," Stephen Ellsworth said.
You may not be a billionaire like Mark Cuban, but you can uncover hidden gems in the stock market using our proprietary data and pattern recognition — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/03/44209284/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet-56">check out five stocks flying under the radar that deserve your attention.</a>
Fast Growth: Allison Ellsworth told a portion of her <a href="https://drinkpoppi.com/pages/our-story?srsltid=AfmBOoqQPkfTVvBqH9eS4MEuCrBYS-LRe34A1luWJg5ZzUoPvYEAahsV">story </a>of struggling with weight and turning to apple cider vinegar during their "Shark Tank" pitch. She mixed fruit juices with apple cider vinegar in her Dallas kitchen to create tasty products.
The products were later bottled up and sold at local farmers' markets. At the market, a Whole Foods buyer helped them land a regional deal with the retailer.
While on "Shark Tank," the couple also said they had signed a national deal with Albertson's.
A "Shark Tank" <a href="https://www.sharktankblog.com/business/mother/">update </a>on the company revealed that since their episode aired, the team scrapped the idea of a bottling plant and went with co-packers, a strategy that would likely make Frankel proud. The company also launched cans alongside their bottles.
In 2000, the company was in over 2,000 stores including Walmart and Whole Foods, alongside online sales on Amazon.
After appearing on "Shark Tank," the couple took part in a rebrand to poppi. The brand eventually landed more nationwide retail space and was able to partner with some top celebrity names such as Post Malone, Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, Billie Eilish, Russell Westbrook, Jennifer Lopez, Olivia Munn and more.
As of April 2024, the company had annual revenue of $50 million. Oza said over the years that poppi would become "Shark Tank's" first billion-dollar brand.
Pepsi Acquisition: A <a href="https://x.com/darrenrovell/status/1901625038542966893">tweet </a>from Darren Rovell says Oza's VC CAVU Consumer Partners put in $25 million over the years before the sale to Pepsi.
The appearance on "Shark Tank" gets credit in the deal <a href="https://www.pepsico.com/our-stories/press-release/pepsico-to-acquire-poppi03172025">announcement </a>by Pepsi Monday saying the brand was "discovered" on the show by Oza and funded by CAVU Consumer Partners "from their initial seed round to today."
"poppi is a true testament to the American Dream! From the kitchen to Shark Tank to becoming an iconic brand, this couldn't have been done without the amazing founders Allison and Stephen Ellsworth, the incredible team in place led by CEO Chris Hall, the unmatched support of CAVU's Uncommon team led by Stevie Clements, and the extraordinary poppi community," Oza said.
Oza said the PepsiCo partnership will help even more consumers around the world enjoy poppi.

Despite his massive charitable contributions, Gates has repeatedly pledged he&#8217;ll eventually disappear from the ranks of the world&#8217;s wealthiest individuals. &#8220;I will drop down and eventually off the list altogether,&#8221; he said confidently in a <a href="https://www.gatesnotes.com/the-year-ahead-2023">2022 GatesNotes blog post</a>, further emphasizing his belief that excessive wealth has its limits.&nbsp;
His philosophy? After a certain threshold, money doesn&#8217;t significantly improve life. As he said back a 2011 Q&amp;A at the University of Washington, &#8220;I can understand wanting to have millions of dollars, there&#8217;s a certain freedom, meaningful freedom, that comes with that. But once you get much beyond that, I have to tell you, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43562104/bill-gates-was-the-richest-man-in-the-world-for-a-record-18-years-he-says-money-brings-freedom-but-beyond-that-its-the-same-hamburger">it&#8217;s the same hamburger</a>.&nbsp;
While Gates may never match his grandmother&#8217;s standards for saving wrapping paper, his legacy of generosity suggests he&#8217;s aiming for a very different kind of standard altogether—one measured in global impact rather than frugality.

Universa Investments hedge fund, led by billionaire investor Mark Spitznagel, posted a 4,144% return in a single quarter during the COVID-19 market crash in early 2020. Here's a look at<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39870083/black-swan-investor-says-greatest-bubble-in-human-history-is-on-the-verge-of-bursting-calls-stoc"> how he did it.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: Spitznagel is known as a "doomsday" investor who correctly predicted the Great Financial Crisis in 2008 and specializes in profiting during broad market crashes caused by "black swan" events.&nbsp;

Spitznagel's Universa Investments fund's massive COVID-19 gains were revealed in a letter to clients that was leaked and <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/black-swan-fund-universa-investments-4000-percent-return-hedging-coronavirus-2020-4-1029076165">seen by</a> Business Insider. In the letter, Spitznagel highlighted the gains the fund had achieved through its tail-risk hedging strategy, while the broader markets and indexes suffered sharp declines. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What Is Tail-Risk Hedging? </h1>
Tail risk refers to the risk of extreme events occurring at the far ends, or tails, of a probability distribution. Tail-risk hedging is an investment strategy that aims to protect portfolios from extreme market downturns and frequently use a combination of financial instruments and strategies.&nbsp;
It is common for a tail-risk hedging strategy to use put options, credit default swaps, Volatility index futures, U.S. Treasuries or a combination of any of the above.&nbsp;
Investors can find convenient exposure to a tail-risk hedge through the Cambria Tail Risk ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAIL#BATS">TAIL</a>) which holds a portfolio of out-of-the-money put options on the S&amp;P 500 Index, as well as U.S. Treasuries in order to mitigate risk. 
The ProShares Trust Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UVXY#BATS">UVXY</a>) provides 1.5x leveraged exposure to the daily performance of the S&amp;P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures Index and can also be part of a tail-risk hedging strategy.

Discover Financial Services Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DFS#NYSE">DFS</a>) shares are trading lower Monday as concerns over antitrust scrutiny weighed on the company&#8217;s proposed merger with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44353947/trumps-cfpb-overhaul-leaves-consumers-exposed-heres-what-it-means-for-your-money">Capital One Financial (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COF#NYSE">COF</a>). </a>
What To Know: The drop followed reports the U.S. Department of Justice is reviewing the $35.3 billion all-stock acquisition over potential anti-competitive risks, particularly in the subprime lending sector.
According to<a href="https://za.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/discover-and-capital-one-stocks-tumble-amid-antitrust-concerns-93CH-3611620"> Investing.com</a>, Capital Forum reported that DOJ staff may oppose the deal, raising concerns that it could limit competition for subprime borrowers. 
A Bloomberg Intelligence analyst noted that while regulatory opposition does not necessarily mean the deal will be blocked, the DOJ's stance could create significant hurdles. 
Capital One defended the acquisition, stating the deal complies with the Bank Merger Act's legal requirements and remains well-positioned for approval.
The merger, if completed, would strengthen the companies&#8217; ability to compete against Mastercard, Visa and American Express. However, the heightened regulatory scrutiny has cast uncertainty over its approval, leading to a selloff in both stocks.
DFS Price Action: Discover Financial Services shares closed down 6.86% at $152.99 at publication Monday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Discover Financial Services Shares Are Down Today: What's Going On?

A special purpose acquisition company connected to Global Client Advisory Group applied for a $175 million initial public offering with U.S. regulators, setting its sights on emerging technology sectors.
The SPAC, named Renatus Tactical Acquisition Corp I, aims to secure capital to pursue investment opportunities in the cryptocurrency, blockchain and data security industries, <a href="https://www.crowdfundinsider.com/2025/03/237448-crypto-focused-spac-rtac-i-files-for-175m-ipo/">according </a>to Crowdfund Insider.
The IPO, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, outlines plans to issue units that combine a Class A ordinary share with a half warrant, allowing future share purchases.
RTAC-I's strategy involves identifying high-growth U.S. companies in digital asset sectors and dual-use technologies. 
The company intends to harness GCAG's experience across media, financial services, and technology to spot promising acquisition targets.
The SPAC is chaired by Devin Nunes, CEO of Trump Media &amp; Technology Group, and led by Eric Swider, a TMTG director.

The company also stated it would provide no additional updates unless necessary.

Elon Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43504134/elon-musks-mom-says-its-degrading-when-people-call-her-son-wealthy-or-a-billionaire-instead-she-prefers-the-genius-of-the-world">has been called a genius</a> so many times that it's practically part of his name at this point. But according to his second ex-wife—yes, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43680809/elon-musks-ex-wife-whom-he-was-engaged-to-only-2-weeks-after-meeting-joked-he-invited-her-to-his-hotel-room-just-to-watch-rocket-videos">woman he married and divorced twice</a>—some of that mystique might just be a case of people misreading social cues.
In a resurfaced BBC clip from "The Elon Musk Show," <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2q5MNcd/">shared on TikTok</a>, Musk's second ex-wife, Talulah Riley, recalled a time when they were catapulted into high-profile social circles. The couple found themselves at elite events, rubbing shoulders with world leaders, including Bill Clinton. The assumption? Musk was always the smartest guy in the room. The reality? He was often just really bored.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The ‘Genius' Assumption</h2>
Riley described how people at dinner parties would be in awe of Musk's quiet, distant demeanor. "I've had people say to me, ‘Oh, I met Elon and I could tell he was a genius because he seemed incredibly distracted and was clearly thinking great things,'" she recounted.
Knowing her husband so well, she would hear this and think, "Really?! No, he probably just didn't like you—or he was just bored."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Awkward Truth About Musk's Social Battery</h2>
One of the most viral moments from the clip is Musk's own blunt take on his interactions with strangers. Riley recalled a dinner where Musk spelled it out:
"The great thing about being famous is that when you sit next to somebody you don't know at a dinner party, they think the bad conversation is their fault."
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
In other words, if the conversation fell flat, people assumed they weren't interesting enough to hold Musk's attention, rather than considering that he simply didn't want to engage.
And apparently, he wasn't afraid to be blunt about it in private. Riley shared that after some of these interactions, she would text Musk to tell him about the person she'd just met. His typical response: "Oh yeah, really boring."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk's Relatable Dislike for Small Talk</h2>
For a man who <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40799246/elon-musks-ex-wife-and-mom-of-5-says-he-was-willing-to-give-up-his-fortune-for-space-goals-even-">regularly talks about colonizing Mars</a> and integrating AI with human brains, mundane dinner party chatter might just not cut it. And according to his ex-wife, people mistook his silence for deep contemplation rather than just a lack of interest in the topic.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Musk's reputation as a visionary entrepreneur is undeniable. But this paints a picture of someone who, despite his larger-than-life public image, still experiences the same social fatigue as the rest of us.
Is he an intellectual powerhouse lost in thought, or just a guy who hates forced conversations? According to Riley, the answer might be a little of both.

Chinese equities are on track to deliver their strongest quarterly performance relative to the S&amp;P 500 in nearly 15 years, as investors rotate out of overvalued U.S. stocks into battered Chinese shares, betting on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/china">a policy-driven recovery.</a>
The iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NYSE">FXI</a>) has surged 26.6% year-to-date through March 17 close, heading for its best quarterly performance since early 2009. Meanwhile, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) is down 3.2% year-to-date, pushing Chinese stocks' relative outperformance to nearly 30%, the widest margin since mid-2007.
Value Partners Group expressed optimism about the Chinese equity market, stating in an email Monday that "the China A-share market is close to the bottom. Valuations are low, and so are market expectations, which means downside risk is limited." 
The firm anticipates an upward market trend in 2024, albeit with volatility due to uncertainties surrounding Trump-related tariffs, geopolitics and China's domestic policy focus on demand versus supply-side measures.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Chart: Chinese Stocks Outshine S&amp;P 500 In Best Quarter Since 2007</h1>

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">China's Policy Push To Stimulate Consumption</h1>
On Sunday, China&#8217;s State Council announced a &#8220;special action plan&#8221; to boost domestic consumption. The initiative includes policies aimed at raising incomes, expanding social safety nets, improving product quality and lifting purchase restrictions to spur spending.
Goldman Sachs' economist Yuting Yang acknowledged the direction of the stimulus but emphasized that "both funding and implementation matter for the effectiveness of China&#8217;s consumption stimulus." 
China has struggled with weak consumer confidence, exacerbated by a troubled real estate sector and sluggish labor demand. 
&#8220;Stabilizing property prices, improving labor demand and establishing a better social safety net are necessary to improve household income and facilitate a more sustainable consumption recovery,&#8221; Yang added.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Tech Giants Lead The Market Surge</h1>
Alibaba Group Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) soared 4.6% on Monday, extending its year-to-date rally to a staggering 74%. 
Meanwhile, Baidu Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) surged over 9% after unveiling Ernie X1, its latest AI model. The company claims Ernie X1 delivers performance comparable to DeepSeek's AI at half the cost, reinforcing China&#8217;s AI ambitions in the global tech race.
For now, the numbers tell a compelling story: Chinese equities are mounting an extraordinary comeback, outpacing U.S. stocks at a rate not seen since 2007. Whether this rally is a temporary repricing or the start of a longer-term trend depends on Beijing's ability to sustain economic growth and investor confidence.
