Put into perspective, Nvidia has a larger market cap than the GDP of:
🇮🇳 India
🇯🇵 Japan
🇬🇧 UK
🇫🇷 France
and every other country in the world other than the 🇺🇸 U.S & 🇨🇳 China. Nvidia and 🇩🇪 Germany are very similar
Comparing a market cap with GDP (one year of economic output) isn’t exactly a like-for-like comparison tho
If you scroll slightly down - there will be a clear example of how your cash or position will change
You will either receive the cash payment in your account or you’ll be given X number of new shares at a calculated market price
** HOLDING A STOCK THAT WILL PAY A DIVIDEND BUT DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENS - EASYEQUITIES EXPLAINS
Props to whoever from @EasyEquities thought of this
If you hold a share that will soon pay a dividend on EasyEquities, you could receive an email like this 🧵
Note if you ignore the email it’s not a train smash - your dividends get paid out to the setting you have in account preference’s
Love when my smallest holdings knock it out the park, while some of my larger holdings think they’re on holiday
Guess that’s the consequence of conviction
**NASPERS RALLIES 10% FOLLOWING TENCENT’s GAINS
Tencent is getting closer to launching an AI assistant built directly into WeChat, according to the *Financial Times*. Since WeChat is China’s go-to "everything app" with 1.4 billion users, this is a pretty massive deal.
Instead of tapping through menus, users will be able to just chat with the AI to get things done. It will hook into WeChat’s massive "mini-app" ecosystem, letting people order food, book reservations, handle payments, and hail rides using normal, everyday language.
