Well yes you have to read the axis, it's not any less impressive that a >$2T company shrunk outstanding shares by 40% this late in it's history.

Apple's buyback program probably has no equal, it's a sight to behold which demonstrates the power of sustained share repurchases. Sure, there are the Teledyne stories, but to do it at this scale is something else. https:/&#

It's trained on Twitter data so I assume Reddit data as well. Honestly feels like they're both pretty important datasets to ingest if trying to build a model on human speech, I reckon social medias, comment sections and co have th

Well yes they leveraged the enormous brand recognition of Coca-Cola, tho it took them 20 years to figure out they were not diluting it as the product line was previously branded as Tab [1]. The first ever ad, AFAICT, for Diet Coke introduce

You're implying that Diet Coke is not meant to have a distinct (aspartame) taste. Coke Zero is the one meant to be an imitation, and it is much closer.

That's silly. While you can't directly monetize your Twitter account, it can expand or straight up create your reach which you can use as a funnel to whatever monetizable content you have. That probably makes it less valuable for

They did heavy handed repurchases during the quarter where they saw the first active user dip, before announcing it, then barely did any in the following quarter after the stock took a 40% dive. I'm still bullish Meta, but their capita

You're gonna invest that 10k somewhere in all likelihood, a risk free 10% is pretty much unbeatable, it's higher than most high-yielding (and vice) stocks, but without bearing the risk of capital loss. Seems silly to me not to use
