There’s now also moral hazard too with the rise of indexing and retirement. They need to keep the WHOLE stock market up. Many fewer investors now do any research and chose companies based on fundamentals. The companies that exist today m

I have a “prime month” every now and again, just joining then quitting at month end. I subscribe because I want quick shipping on an item then end up ordering a few other things. Full year prime doesn’t make sense unless you’re ordering e

If its built out of a conventional pc, wipe it and install proxmox on an SSD. With that you can virtualize a openmediavault NAS instance then have spare for spare Linux/windows VM instances, Pihole VM, Nextcloud, etc

Yep interesting times. Valuation models at these levels depend on EPS growth where buybacks reduce number of shares = more earnings per share. The side effect is a ballooning balance sheet. Can that go on indefinitely? Are upper manageme

Check out their balance sheet. It’s already at zero! They already have been spending so much on buybacks (9B a year, ~eq to net income) that there isn’t any equity left in the company since their liabilities have exploded. On a side note c

Yes people exchanging their worthless asset (tether) for bitcoin so they can sell it for real USD. BTC-USDT -> infinity BTC-USD -> much lower

There is complacency among the exchanges though. You really believe all that volume and price action is legitimate? Exchanges want tether to be worth what they say it’s worth, 1 USD. The alternative is a massive crash in tether and there

Ive only seen off brand companies test this out. Samsung seems to be jumping headfirst into the bendable tech skipping dual screen.

Not sure if I’m in the minority but I would prefer two separated clamshell screens to one bendy screen. At least until the bendable tech is 100%. Two separate screens would still allow great multitasking when necessary. When not used perh

Of course not. I’m willing to bet it’s an issue with the parents actions over the course of a decade unless the child has severe mental disabilities. It’s impossible to believe an otherwise healthy 14 year old child would die by refusing

You fed him baby carrots and chicken nuggets for 10 years? Why would you enable that? Make him hungry and he will eat with everyone else.

I’m interested in the China/global economy and this is one of the many data points.

I’ve been browsing around satellite view of Chinese cities for a while now. There are hundreds of thousands of high rise apartment complexes without visible activity around them. Literally copy paste buildings surrounded by empty fields.

I think all cars should have red interior lights as a matter of safety. It makes me angry whenever I rent a car and it has blue lights everywhere inside at night. It may be a Sonata or something that has a blue light on all the time just a

Exactly! Microsoft is exploiting the “cloud” buzzword when including Office 365. I’m sure old baby boomer investors/advisors/managers couldn’t tell the difference. They want to be in the “growing cloud space”. Office 365 is ju

The short squeeze in HYG over the past few weeks is insane, up nearly 6%. It had moved +/- 1% all year up until then. You’d have to hold through price moves like that.

I think at the time they had a better sale price. It was a slight discount vs msrp. I also was able to sign up for a store credit card to get 10% back in rewards on the first purchase. Top that off with like 3+ Best Buy locations within

You really can't beat going into a physical store for a large ticket item purchase. No waiting for shipping, easy to return, viewing the product in store. Recently purchased a MBP from Bestbuy. The first one I received had noticeable

I’ve recently switched most of my old gmail account to ICloud. Extremely easy to use with the iOS and Mac system. I’m (currently) ok with apple handling my email data, much more so than google. Have had no issues whatsoever.

I had a Dell XPS 13 for about 2 months but ended up selling and getting a 2017 Macbook Pro 13 non-touchbar. For the premium you're already spending on an XPS machine, a Mac for slightly more has so much better hardware. The price dif

It’s crazy to me how one judge gets to decide the fate of a 100 billion dollar merger. Humans are fallible.
