Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
The Arizona Diamondbacks and Texas Rangers are set to compete in the 2023 World Series, a surprising outcome given their underdog status at the start of the season. A bettor with FanDuel, a unit of Flutter Entertainment (OTC:PDYPY), placed a $25 bet on this outcome, which paid out $4,750. DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG) lists the Rangers as the favorite in the series. The games will be broadcast on Fox, a unit of Fox Corporation (NASDAQ:FOX)(NASDAQ:FOXA). The Diamondbacks' postseason was predicted by a simulation of Sony Group Corp's (NYSE:SONY) 'MLB The Show 23' video game.
