We speak to Michael about his proposals and how he thinks Israel can continue to grow in the future.

In the red we have ZIM, which continues to lose steam as it struggles to find a suitable acquirer, and eToro, which closed the week down 11.76% (40% below its IPO number). 🔎And our Long Play today is a conversation with Natti Ginor, head of Israel Investment Banking at Jefferies.

Find us on:📺 YouTube📸 Instagram💼 LinkedIn𝕏 Michal on X𝕏 Yonatan on X📩 Write to us here📈Our WYNDEX update for today:The WYNDEX is back in the green for a second week in a row, up 3.29%, to be exact. That puts it ahead of both the S&P and NASDAQ (0.69 and 1.39%, respectively). Monday.com made a 9.09% jump back up after December 4th Guggenheim report with a Strong BUY ($250 target price). In the red is ZIM, which shed ~2% with a takeover bid by German Giant Hapag Lloyd competing with the Unger/management buyout offer which seems to lowball the market perception. Two cyber companies, Varonis and Sentinel One, were also down.🎯Our Big Shorts for today:German Chancellor Friedrich Merz visited Israel this week. The European leader met with Prime Minister Netanyahu and other senior Israeli officials, and also spoke about that temporary & partial arms embargo on Israel, which Germany lifted last month once the ceasefire was in effect. We unpack the visit from this key partner.Eurovision decision: A decision has been made to allow Israel to stay in the 2026 competition. But several countries (including Spain, Ireland, the Netherlands) subsequently said they would boycott the competition as a result. What does this mean for Israeli isolation vs. integration as we move forward, and beyond the Eurovision itself?🔎And our Long Play today is focused on Israel’s 2026 budget, which was passed by the cabinet just a few days ago. We’ll go over what you need to know - what’s in, what’s out, what’s controversial, etc. And what the next steps are for the budget. 📅 New episodes drop every WednesdayWhat’s Your Number? is hosted from Tel Aviv and Silicon Valley by Yonatan Adiri — Israeli entrepreneur and former advisor to President Shimon Peres — and Michal Lev-Ram, Israeli-born Silicon Valley-based tech journalist and contributing editor at Fortune.

Notable stocks were Palo Alto Networks, which bounced back almost 4% alongside ZIM (+20%) and Lemonade (16%). The most interesting mover in this week’s WYNDEX was pharma giant TEVA with 11.07%. This was thanks to clinical approval of two biosimilar drugs the company can now bring to the market.🔎Our Long Play today is an interview with Seth Siegel, a guest whose work has become essential reading for anyone trying to understand the future of water in the Middle East. Seth is a leading voice on water policy and innovation, and the author of several best-selling books, including Let There Be Water, the definitive account of how Israel became a global model for water management. He recently wrote an op-ed in the WSJ about Iran’s escalating water crisis and the role its hatred of Israel has played in bringing it to this moment. We talk to him about how water - perhaps more than any other resource - plays a critical role in the Middle East’s economic trajectory, and new innovations coming out of Israel. Here is the link to Seth’s recent op-ed in the WSJ: https://www.wsj.com/opinion/hatred-of-israel-caused-irans-water-crisis-4e566bacAnd here is a link to his book, Let There Be Water: https://www.amazon.com/Let-There-Be-Water-Water-Starved/dp/1250115566📅 New episodes drop every WednesdayWhat’s Your Number? is hosted from Tel Aviv and Silicon Valley by Yonatan Adiri — Israeli entrepreneur and former advisor to President Shimon Peres — and Michal Lev-Ram, Israeli-born Silicon Valley-based tech journalist and contributing editor at Fortune.

While the S&P and NASDAQ were also in the red last week (1.65% and 2.2%, respectively), the WYNDEX shed 7.7%. Some highlights: Palo Alto Networks lost 10.8% as the market did not react well to the cyber player’s acquisition of Chronosphere, and WIX and Monday.com shares were also down… no big moves in the green, sadly. 🔎Our Long Play today is… a panel conversation that took place at the recent Z3 conference in Palo Alto, a one-day event that delves into world Jewry and Israel and the relationship between the two. There were lots of important conversations that took place at the conference… this one was about the economic relationship between the U.S. and Israel and how it’s changed over the last couple of years, plus of course what comes next. Speakers were: Omer Fein, Chief Economic Consul to the Western United States; Joy Sisisky, president and CEO of the Jewish Community Federation Bay Area; and Shaun Maguire, partner at Sequoia Capital. 📅 New episodes drop every WednesdayWhat’s Your Number? is hosted from Tel Aviv and Silicon Valley by Yonatan Adiri — Israeli entrepreneur and former advisor to President Shimon Peres — and Michal Lev-Ram, Israeli-born Silicon Valley-based tech journalist and contributing editor at Fortune.
