@volisdead Makes a lot more sense for GOOG to do an ATM with how hard they've run recently, but not Zuck.
That said, their capex spending is going to continue to grow as component pricing increases show no signs of slowing down.
@volisdead I was your exit liquidity. I just don't think they just blindly do an ATM at these levels -- FT article mentioned issuing mandatory converts instead. They went to great lengths to structure that Blue Owl deal; they're not stupid when it comes to raising.
Ignore Sunday night - respect Monday at 9:30AM
There was very little “forced selling” on Friday. Most of that requires the price to close at the levels.
There will be plenty of it on Monday morning.
That will also be when any panic from retail starts to hit the tape.

Mayor Brandon Johnson on the Soldier Field game day traffic: "Let me tell you how bad it is — Bears vs. Packers, I'm at the game, we're losing. I decide to leave to beat the traffic. Before I get out of the footprint, the Bears had come back to win."
the current director of national intelligence is a guy who two years ago received a trophy declaring he “Fucks Only The Young” at an (oddly dildo focused) event he organized dedicated to the conspiracy that Bed Bath and Beyond never actually went bankrupt
@Merridew__ Once you get down 33%, things get interesting as the 3x levered ETFs get liquidated. Not sure there are enough buyers to absorb that sudden rush of supply.
Okay, there are multiple builder baskets, and I (aka Gemini) was wrong -- the CNI one does not govern here. $ONIT has plenty of capacity to authorize further repos well beyond the $30mm announced, which begs the question of why they have not.
$ONIT authorized another $20mm buyback today with the approval of the FOA deal. Didn't see a carveout last time I looked at the docs that would allow this, but below is a refresher on why their buybacks are capped.
The answer is probably two things:
-Buybacks are accretive to TBV but do not help with ROE targets, since total equity does not change
- They're derisking some of their (high-cost) financing facilities
