Tel Aviv Stock Exchange

I think that time may be coming back.

I'm hoping it's going to come back on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

as the place where these infinotics companies go public, maybe with a little more revenue, even adjusted for inflation.

So at 20, the university I went to where I edited the college paper was one of the first places to get desktop publishing, which no one knows what that is anymore, but PageMaker.com. Aldous Pagemaker and Quark in the days where the real newspapers, like the ones you did business with, wouldn't let desktop publishing because that's not the way you lay out a newspaper.

Some talk previously of Russo-Cypriot interests.

The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange is considering a bid.

I'm overall not sure who wants this asset.

It's difficult to see which big exchanges it really helps fit.

Yeah.

Elbit Systems on NASDAQ and Israel Stock Exchange.

But then also you've gotta look at the covert funding with Trump, um, which is a lot of attention's coming to it now.

There's, um, the Affinity Partners, which is his fund that's funded by the Gulf countries to the tune of about five billion.

Yes.

I think the best measure of that is the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange index.

Mm-hmm.

Uh, that's actually up 120% since October 6 until today, so more than doubled in value.

Lieberman managed to contact the Tezeva Shaha, or Black Flag group, which then mobilized supporters to his location, providing him with strength and solidarity.

In economic and business news, the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange has been honored with the Kong Innovator Business Impact Award Twenty Twenty-Six at the International API plus AI Summit.

The award recognizes the exchange's development of digital products based on capital market data and its use of API infrastructure for secure financial information services.

Separately, Somaliland is reportedly seeking to deepen security cooperation with Israel, including the acquisition of air defense systems.

So that's a business we like.

We did an initial public offering on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange a little over a year ago, which was a very interesting experience.

Our first foray into the capital markets, the public markets.

You know, that was definitely an interesting experience and a good one.

And then when they had a bunch of wars in the Middle East, everybody was like, this country is going to zero.

Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, same thing.

Like, actually, no, this is like a temporary dip in a ridiculous mega trend.

Let me just hop on that.

Twenty-four hours later, the UN did something that got almost no attention outside of the Israeli press.

It expanded its settlement business blacklist from one hundred and fifty-eight companies to two hundred and fifteen companies, including companies like Tnuva, a dairy products Israeli company headquartered in Ramat Gan, listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, and which is the largest exporter and supplier of kosher dairy products around the world.

Also companies like Electra, which is an Israeli construction company, and dozens of others.

It's not a sanction, it's not binding, but it is, as my next guest predicts, exactly how things start.

[gentle music] And we're back with Marc Dubowitz.

Okay, I want to talk about the, what I would argue that a layer of protection that, that Israel has, which is the strength of its economy, which against all odds, predictions, forecasts, and now sanctions or threat of sanctions, has held strong, including after three years of war, multi-front war.

I mean, the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange has been on a tear.

More and more Israeli companies are being funded not by only the usual suspects, but major US venture capital firms that actually weren't doing business in Israel before October seventh and now have made the decision to make very big bets on Israel.

Now, we have many events happening around the world.
