May 16, 2026

What To Watch For On The Catalyst Calendar:

As discussed in more detail below, this week is busy on the product front. GOOGL’s I/O developer conference

will begin on Tuesday with a keynote at 1pm ET (link) – see Page 4 for more details on our expectations.

Additionally, ABNB's Summer Release on 5/20 should highlight the progress the company is making on the

product front and shed light on the strategic focus for the remainder of FY26E. Meanwhile, we expect SPOT

to provide updates on product strategy / financial targets at the company’s investor day on 5/21 (Page 6).
