Today, I’m talking with Zillow CEO Jeremy Wacksman. Zillow is one of those apps that really exemplifies what you might call the smartphone era of software: the company built a great mobile app for looking at real estate listings, and it turned into not just entertainment for so many of us, but what has become a vertically integrated platform for buying, selling, and renting real estate. Verge subscribers, don’t forget you get exclusive access to ad-free Decoder wherever you get your podcasts. Head here . Not a subscriber? You can sign up here . If you’ve been listening to Decoder lately, you’ve maybe already guessed why I was so eager to talk with Jeremy — a popular mobile app like that is really the front-end to a big series of databases, and the politics of who gets access to databases and how much that access should cost is newly up for grabs if you think the next era of software will be defined by AI. After all, you don’t need an app like Zillow if your AI agent can just go look at the multiple listing service, or MLS, database directly. Or maybe you do — maybe you need an app like Zillow more than ever, which is of course the case Jeremy made in this conversation. And the politics of Zillow’s database access are as complicated as it gets — the company is involved in big lawsuits over when and how houses get listed in MLS versus Zillow, and realtor groups have an uneasy relationship with the platform as a whole. Jeremy’s argument is that the future of Zillow looks a lot like an end-to-end business platform for real estate agents, and we spent a lot of time talking about whether a business as local and as relationship-driven as real estate can benefit from platform-level scale in the way he’s proposing. Yeah, there’s a lot of Decoder in this one — it’s going to surprise you, I think. Okay: Zillow CEO Jeremy Wacksman. Here we go. This interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity. Jeremy Wacksman, you’re the CEO of the Zillow Group. Welcome to Decoder ....
As a kid, I went door to door collecting cans to earn some pocket change. Today, I still take pride in recycling. I slice cardboard boxes down to size each Sunday, and make sure every viable plastic container winds up in my family's recycling bins. Sometimes I even pull cellophane windows out of paper envelopes, just in case it'll save a tree someday. In other words: I'm nearly the perfect custome...

Iranian Drones Strike EU Country In War First The Iran war has just for the first time, and rather quickly given it's only the third day of the conflict, expanded to include an EU nation in the Mediterranean. Iranian-made drones have reached Cyprus and at least one has made ground impact . But they may have been launched from nearby Lebanon . The British Royal Air Force (RAF) base in Akrotiri, Cyprus came under attack Monday morning, with an Iranian drone striking the runway in the early hours, several reports say. This comes as Britain has mulled directly joining Trump's Iran operation , but now appears to be pulling back from the prospect. General view of RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, via PA/The Independent "Our force protection in the region is at the highest level and the base has responded to defend our people," a British Ministry of Defence spokesperson has told international media. Hours after the initial salvo, two more unmanned aerial vehicles were successfully intercepted while inbound over the same base. "Our armed forces are responding to a suspected drone strike at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus at midnight local time," the MoD statement continued. "Our force protection in the region is at the highest level and the base has responded to defend our people." The RAF is now taking emergency precaution measures is at least partially evacuating the base after a prior build-up : The attacks on Akrotiri, a British sovereign base area , comes after the RAF recently moved additional defensive capabilities to the location—including radar systems, anti-drone defenses, and F-35 jets—as part of ongoing efforts to support stability in the Middle East. Showcasing the widening impact of the Iran conflict, an airport in Paphos, Cyprus, was later evacuated after a suspect object was picked up on radars. Cooper spoke of the “international” threat Monday morning and expressed the importance of recognizing “the responsibilities we have around defensive support for areas where there are B...

Wall Street expects a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when Oracle (ORCL) reports results for the quarter ended February 2026. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company's earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates. The stock might move higher if these key numbers top expectations in the upcoming earnings report. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower. While management's discussion of business conditions on theearnings callwill mostly determine the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations, it's worth having a handicapping insight into the odds of a positive EPS surprise. Zacks Consensus Estimate This software maker is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.70 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +15.7%. Revenues are expected to be $16.89 billion, up 19.5% from the year-ago quarter. Estimate Revisions Trend The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period. Investors should keep in mind that an aggregate change may not always reflect the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Earnings Whisper Estimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core. The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising thei...
