So, not the 50% CAGR noted by the CFO on an actual earnings call? The same call they bragged about 4680, btw.

They offered partial recission as indicated in the ruling. Chancellor opted to do full, and now Plaintiffs get 1 whole dollar for a proven clear breach of fiduciary duties while the lawyers get paid anyway.
The ruling benefits insiders/rich people while screwing the ordinary shareholders again.

Further to this point, the underlying problem with identifying an alternative remedy rests with the sheer enormity of the self dealt package itself, which is how we got here in the first place. Still, Plaintiffs DID offer partial rescission as an alternative remedy. It’s right there in the ruling.

Exactly. It’s related to about 35% of the S&P 500. ORCL alone is almost 1%.

His legacy is “cutting” the debt by nearly a third in 8 short years, putting him in 4th on the all time inflation list while constantly saying he cares about inflation being 2% for the good of the American people.

The real tell is when he said we need to let inflation run hot to “make up for” a period of relative affordability. When we hit 9%, did we make up for that? With 2 job openings for anyone unemployed?
30% cumulative inflation since 2018. That’s the legacy. The tilt in the index curve is obvious.

I was admittedly being a little flippant there, because I’m frustrated.
We’re cutting at 2.8% core and total PCE. Sept CPI is 3%.
Prices are 30% higher across most measurements since Powell took the Chair. That’s just fact. He hasn’t seen the 2% target post-COVID and doesn’t seem to care.

Technology capital projects have been the largest beneficiary of what appears to be underpriced corporate credit risk—the same conditions we saw forming in prior periods like 1997-99 and 2005-7 and 2022. We know how these all ended, with 2022 less severe because fed let inflation run higher longer.

Ample evidence exists showing the relationship between risk appetite and monetary policy, even if we haven’t studied the transmission mechanisms sufficiently. Technology has just positioned itself through (often BS) narrative construction to be the biggest beneficiary of the risk taking.

Further, one of the reasons birthright citizenship was codified with the very high bar of a Constitutional Amendment was to clearly make it the law of the land. Want to end birthright citizenship? Pass a Constitutional Amendment.

Ironically, if these dimwits would bother to read the Senate debates during the ratification of the 14th Amendment (1866) and note how the Senator from CA said the children of Chinese immigrants were already clearly citizens (that was 10% of Californians at the time, btw), they’d know how they felt.
