@davideborall loved the movie

Love the analogy

@keithmclachlan Right now ...

Crypto is funding it a bit I think

[Chapter11 @Chapter11Wealth]

How is this even a thing?

How does humanity and society accept football hooliganism as something we should just put up with.

CRAZY

🇫🇷 Toulouse is near 700km from Paris and these clowns still turned it into a smash-and-grab zone

Bros traveled farther than most Euros go on holiday just to wreck the place...

The third world is playing Mad Max. Deportation speedrun when?

@mommy_moneyza Retailing is tough

I notice most people just look at stories from THEIR very specific point of view

A business owner may cry 'but I cant raise my prices & I should get unlimited time to lose money'

A customer gets outraged if they pay 50c more for their cremora or baked beans!

@TraderFrans Its a cash shell right now and should be valued as such.

The small holdings it currently has are barely material.

So its a bet on cash with the opportunity to have that cash deployed by someone you either trust (or dont trust) with your money

@ShareSquare2 Is this a 'Trump' alternative facts moment ?

The man either owns shares in Microsoft or he doesn't.

You don't get to have an opinion on it.

*shrug*

[Chapter11 @Chapter11Wealth]

@mommy_moneyza @CheetahPlains @Walmart Ask all the South African businesses about that!

Most tried and failed. Some MISERABLY SO!

[Chapter11 @Chapter11Wealth]

@DilBradly This was written by a BLU spokesperson

LITERALLY

I'm not commenting either way on the content or narrative of BLU

I've heard Trump spokesperson talk about Iran and the Straits of Hormuz too. ONLY FACTS!

IRAN DEFEATED
IRAN BEGGING FOR DEAL
STRAITS OPEN
ETC

Pinch of salt

[Chapter11 @Chapter11Wealth]

Financial and economic literacy at a literal zero.

This right here is why populism works in most countries.

Frightening to see such influential people can have such low understanding.

Boggles my mind this. Race to the bottom

Joe Rogan: “I talked to Tim Dillon today… He told me that gas is $7.90 a gallon in LA right now.”

Brendan Schaub: “And that's down from what it was. I was out there a month shooting a commercial and it was up to $8.40 something.”

Joe Rogan: “Here's what I don't understand. Are we getting oil from Iran?... So are they just f*cking us in the a$$?”

“Or is it global prices went up because some of the gas can’t get to where it needs to go, and so they need to make that money so they just f*ck you. Isn’t it funny? They’re like, we’re going to make money no matter what. The American people are going to lose money so we make the same amount of money. F*ck you, you need oil.”

“[Oil executives are] a bunch of crooks. We should have a national oil company and only sell in America. Keep it in house so no matter what foul sh*t we do outside the in the world [prices don’t go up].”

“Even though U.S. is the largest oil producer, companies can sell oil on the global market to whoever pays the highest price. High world prices still translate into high domestic gas prices.”

“Hey, Mr. President, please fix that.”

@FinanceGhost WMT unlikely imo.

They burned their fingers badly with Massmart.

I can't see them buying into another struggling retailer here

Also MSM was basically the same concept as WMT. PIK is a bit different

Unlocking value with PIK isn't easy. I don't know how they turn the ship
