  1. Everyone who wants a Tesla, has a Tesla.
    772
  2. Dogecoin is considered a joke, not a security.
    502
  3. The crazy part is 3d printing has a niche profitable application (custom parts), but gamblers can turn anything into a ponzi scheme
    401
  4. You know it's a bubble when the existence of an industry drains others of capital
    387
  5. Spirit's customers were people taking trips they couldn't really afford. That ended with low interest rates
    269
  6. Should show how out of whack startup valuations were in the era of low interest rates. Imagine valuing a YouTuber with a million subs at 10 million bucks. Anyone who gets paid in shares get stupid rich for a short time, and everyone else gets paid according to reality.
    244
  7. First thing to know about Arabs: They value the prestige of titles and the appearance of power over the reality of either.
    203
  8. You know it's a bubble when there's money to be made in pretending to be in that sector
    201
  9. There's something you're missing: Most lottery winners resume previous living standards within a few years, with many reapplying at their old jobs. They simply blow all the money away on stupid stuff.
    200
  10. The crypto ban makes a lot more sense when you think of it.
    193
  11. The bulk of Macau's GDP is from money laundering. The casinos will allow you to trade chips for any currency you want, and China severely restricts movement of capital out of country. Ergo, a VIP pass means that if you spend a weekend gambling you can move fortunes out of country. Given near two thirds of casino revenue are from VIP gamblers...
    190
  12. I think the ultimate winner is the bank, because while Twitter might fall Mr. Musk can still pay back that loan.
    189
  13. Step one: Announce going all EV. Step two: Sell all shares at absurd highs. Step three: Run.
    174
  14. It's almost as if Evergande's frauds were the norm.......
    152
  15. It sounds like Cathy's team cooked the books for these companies in order to delude themselves it was a good idea.
    152
  16. I think Mr Cuban is right that his success is down to dumb luck. So many millions of young men trying to make it big, it should not surprise anyone that some get to the top without any particular skills.
    150
  17. "Buy state owned land." Correction: The Chinese government in China owns all land. They lease it to people for 30 to 70 years at a time.
    135
  18. They went from not having crypto, to being the biggest bitcoin miner, to banning crypto in a few years. And that should tell you just how volatile CHinese markets are.
    128
  19. Correction: Hedge funds don't necessarily try to beat the market, but try to stay 100% uncorrelated to the market (hence the name). Of course, the ones that do beat the market see massive capital inflows so...
    126
  20. A major factor is Chinese people have higher regard for American brands than Americans do. Office workers are known to put tea in old Starbucks cups just so people will think they're modern and sophisticated. Apple's success in China is just because for many years they were the top brand in America even though most Americans opt for lesser known brands with acceptable performance and lower profit margins.
    125
  21. Stop advertising art as blue chip. There is no such thing.
    117
  22. Let's take a moment to recognize how awesome the name Hindenburg Research is for a activist short selling hedge fund.
    115
  23. The defendant has a very unfortunate name...
    115
  24. Where I'm from we call this the Stupidity Tax.
    100
  25. Correction: Many gas stations operate without staff present while the convenience store is closed at night.
    98
  26. How can it be worse? We all knew the company was a total scam
    96
  27. Oddly enough, Melvin's investors have more faith in management than the management does. Loss depression is real... Also greed, since everyone involved wants the other guy to swallow the bill.
    94
  28. Traditional radio has a similar fate. We still have all the equipment so they might as well use it for something.
    93
  29. I love the "told you" moments like this in markets. It shows how many systemic problems can be anticipated and corrected, but aren't.
    92
  30. To be fair, most of these AI companies are still fundamentally profitable electronics manufacturers and R&D firms. While they aren't worth what people are paying, they aren't zeros like crypto and collectables.
    91
  31. Parts are hard enough to find with mature firms.......
    86
  32. Private equity has grown exponentially over the last couple decades, but it has collapsed in the last year with most funds making no new investments. Turns out the returns, risks, and fees were identical to crowdfunding.
    78
  33. I already pay for YouTube Premium, I am not paying extra for what is mostly the same channels
    77
  34. Very ponzi
    76
  35. Mr Patrick Boyle on his channel pointed out that realizing this gain would be impossible for Mr Hwang. The same trick that allowed him to pump the stock would also crash the stock if he tried to sell. In the end, it seems Mr Hwang wanted the "high score" in some kind of game.
    73
  36. Finance YouTubers aren't your friend either, but here we are.
    73
  37. Retail traders... Institutional traders... The only difference is if you're betting your money or someone else's.
    71
  38. You're not a very good fraudster if literally all your schemes get busted before you cash out....
    70
  39. A ban on chemical fertilizer reflects the degree of incompetence Sri Lanka is dealing with.
    68
  40. I doubt many people genuinely believed in his charity. By the time he came around, the only people that hadn't muted crypto scammers were other crypto scammers
    68
  41. Correction: Qatar's GDP per capita are misleading simply because a large section of the country does not officially exist.
    67
  42. Japan doesn't count as foreign ownership.
    66
  43. 7:20 To elaborate on why hydrogen is expensive, due to the laws of physics it will always take MORE energy to separate oxygen and hydrogen than you get from combining them back together. On top of that it's the lightest gas ever and becomes liquid only near absolute zero, so you need big and heavy gas tanks to hold it. This is why we don't even use hydrogen to launch space rockets anymore as a highly refined jet fuel will do and it's cheaper and much more energy dense.
    65
  44. SBF bailed them out so he could seize their assets for his own purposes.
    65
  45. NFT were never a real world use case
    63
  46. Something the video left out: At trial it would come out the politician managing this wasn't very bright. He was personal friends with an investment banker and would buy any product offerred. The investment banker assumed the politician knew what he was doing because of his office.
    63
  47. Narrow profit margins, lots of established competition... What were they expecting?
    62
  48. Absentee management appears to have been an issue. The travelougues the producers made were great, but who was doing the mundane stuff?
    60
  49. Daughter of a Stamford Professor working for an investment bank? Yep, fraud.
    59
  50. That's ultimately what market bubbles do
    59
  51. We will all remember his name... Because there's no way you get it mixed up with anything else with incompatible consonants. :)
    59
  52. Or DEI quotas.
    58
  53. This is what you get when you put politicians at the head of bureaucracies.
    58
  54. The crashes everyone sees coming... Never happen.
    57
  55. If you're going to commit a pump and dump that obvious you'd better have a means for leaving the country before the SEC finds out.
    57
  56. Invideo AI sounds like it's directly involved in counterfeit content on YouTube
    56
  57. Correction: Wallstreet wasn't necessarily fooled, but those companies were priced according to the return on T-bills plus a suitable risk premium. When T-bills were returning near zero, these growth companies were valued at or near their projected fair value decades in the future. That's why everything growth got slaughtered in 2022.
    55
  58. Speaking of North Koreans in Russia, VICE founder actually went to Siberia and found North Korean loggers at work, shared a beer and asked them about their lives. "Do you like it out here?" "There's nothing out here to like."
    54
  59. Fraud giveaway #1: "Low risk way to dramatic growth."
    54
  60. Most wouldn't care. The only people who'd want my DNA are archeologists
    52
  61. "Over 150 locations worldwide" is a pretty big business but nothing compared to the giants like Mcdonalds and Wendy's
    51
  62. I've been paid to do nothing. It never lasts long because even without layoffs it becomes a toxic workplace full of warm bodies.
    50
  63. Two words. Mean reversion. Even if the current split proves permanent, people will just find alternative sources eventually.
    49
  64. Or being a successful African businessman
    48
  65. 50 bucks says you've been saying that every week for years.
    48
  66. 2:00 "Massive raptor engines." I have a feeling you're counting in the nozzle as contributing to the size of the engine. Nah, those simply have to be bulky when in a vacuum. The two engines in the picture are the same, one just has a nozzle for space and the other has a nozzle for takeoff. It's the plumbing on top that counts.
    46
  67. This why interest rates needs to stay where they are
    46
  68. The tech immediately caught up with the idea
    45
  69. For comparison, the 75 largest cities in the US have a combined debt of over 300 billion, which accounts for most of the municipal debt in the US. The US government is not known for its prudent fear of leverage.
    44
  70. Simply not the case. Small businesses are on Amazon, and beating the competition is not a sign of monpolies. If they have to aggressively cut margins to maintain their position, they are simply not a monopoly.
    44
  71. For a time city centers were dominated by factories, then mass transit was invented. For a time city centers were dominated by office buildings, then the internet was invented. Only a handful of industries (like law) need to be centrally located these days.
    44
  72. To be fair, YouTube finance channels are no different from these newsletters, just cheaper. It took me some time to find a few that appear to be honest men.
    43
  73. Largest we know of. There was another case where a full third of the country's social security was "misused" in unspecified ways. It is thought pension funds that are suppose to be kept safe are being diverted to high risk investments like state owned startups, massive loans, and Belt and Road related projects.
    43
  74. "If I die, it won't be a suicide." That's proof he committed suicide.
    43
  75. The industry was never profitable. Now they can't borrow anymore
    41
  76. Long-time VICE watcher here: The quality of their work ranged from trash editorials regurgitating liberal consensus with zero reporting, to the absolute legendary like with Hamilton's work or Shane's interview with North Koreans. Add to that the tweekers they hired ramming "legalize drugs" down our throats. There was no loyal viewer base.
    41
  77. Fully diversified stocks mean you get average returns with less risk. Fully diversified corporation mean no one person knows how it all even works.
    41
  78. Most of Cathy's team is very young. As in, she recruited them while they were in college kind of young. Of course they don't seem to understand business math.
    40
  79. Proof that "entrapaneurian succeess" is mostly dumb luck
    39
  80. That's not how stock based compensation works. Paying with stock options makes the books look better because it is not an operating expense, but the pay is at shareholder expense.
    39
  81. A general rule is there is never a lot of money in selling things to children. It must be a freemium service to get any business at all. You will get limited amount of money from merch sales and sponsorships because parents are buying this stuff, not kids. You must constantly acquire new customers as old ones will inevitably lose interest in a few years or months. And there are zero barriers for entry so there's constant competition from a sea of persons. Also, kids don't like souless corporations and will devote most of their attention to people they want to be friends with. This is why Minecraft servers rarely make it to the 10 year mark. People just simply stop playing, and the less money comes in the poorer quality the server will be which will in turn drive more kids out.
    39
  82. It sounds like they never bothered making a bank account because it was always just a game to keep investors busy while they YOLOed the money as they saw fit.
    38
  83. Don't think that. The results are skewed by featuring all the epic gains/losses.
    38
  84. Muddy Waters Research. These short selling vigilantes really do know how to pick good company names....
    38
  85. Frankly, I think the perverse employee incentive structure creates this. It cutthroat
    37
  86. Zoom growth is like this: Everyone downloaded it during quarantine, used it for a handful of glitchy meetings, then forgot their passwords within a month.
    37
  87.  @samdis1890  I'm literally a military historian specializing in the Levant. There's nothing inherently wrong with this trend, it just flavors their politics and business decisions.
    37
  88. Companies selling frivolous products always come and go with the decades.
    37
  89. 1:40 that's a highly misleading chart. Perhaps intentionally so.
    37
  90. Any long only strategy works during quantitative easing.
    37
  91. It actually isn't clear if the baby powder is a carcinogen, and even if it is we're talking a marginal statistical correlation. If there was a clear connection, the matter wouldn't have gone to court.
    37
  92. During low interest rates all you had to do was say you would become someone big and you would get a market cap near the big dogs. The reason was investors were discounting future values at insanely low rates, so the easiest way to push up stock prices was not to make money but to announce growth plans even if you don't follow through
    36
  93. 5:20 Your argument assumes lots of people will buy brand new Teslas even in a Recession. But in reality there's no way they could make enough cars to justify their share price any time in the next 30 years. Edit: Burry is buying puts because a short position can blow up in your face when dealing with meme stocks.
    36
  94. This sort of exotic contracts used to hide debt and lower interest payments was Evergrande's favorite antic too.
    35
  95. Losing 100 times revenue but management keeps pouring in cash. Advertising a production line they don't have whilst only making spare parts... You may have stumbled on an embezzlement scheme, WSM.
    35
  96. 35,000!?!?! Where are they putting these? I never heard of them before just now.
    34
  97. Rising interest rates crushed all these firms
    32
  98. Remember that scene from Superman Returns where the Daily Planet had two front page news pieces ready to go: "Superman Lives" and "Superman is Dead." It's played for laughs in the movie, but those types of pre-written pieces are totally a thing when the editors are just waiting for confirmation.
    32
  99. The whole country is uninvestable, frankly.
    32
  100. That's why he was running a family office, as he was banned from giving financial advise.
    32
  101. The remaining firm appears to be legit, but to make vehicles profitably you need robots that are expensive. Maybe they should just sell parts rather than completed trucks
    32
  102. Chinese steel is actively diluted. There are videos circulating of construction workers breaking inch thick steel with their hands. The worst steel is sold locally in China where no one cares, but the stuff they export is still not up to specification
    32
  103. How can you talk so much but say so little?
    31
  104. The ultimate problem with gig economies is there's simply very little money in it for the workers. Also, for many online gigs you're competing with people from turdworld states who are content with grocery money.
    31
  105. Get real. There's definitely a lot of weed hidden in there.
    30
  106. Not in Nigeria. For instance, their oil exports are a fraction what they could be because people often risk their lives to steal buckets of oil. Most of the refining is in unlicensed open pits and the government simply fines foreign firms for the pollution created by criminals. You have to fight to stay profitable in Africa.
    30
  107. Quite the clickbait title.... And it's not a transfer of poor to rich. It's a transfer from the gamblers to the racketeers... Like a literal casino.
    30
  108. You can fake GDP statistics, but you can't fake the return of a broad passive index.
    30
  109. It's called a bubble within a bubble.
    30
  110. Fun fact: The Russian "Cossack" comes from "Kazakh," meaning "nomad." Eventually Cossack came to mean something like "cowboy" and many Kazakhs are Cossacks.
    30
  111. 4:00 Shorting volatility is like picking up change from railroad tracks. Super profitable, as long as you can evade the oncoming train.
    29
  112. Chinese stocks are like Detroit real estate. It's cheap for a reason.
    29
  113. Guys, it's the same "Move fast and break things" approach to technology that it has always been. It's just this time it's cars.
    29
  114. It's a winner-takes-all business. Any tiny hiccup in the early days could make them lose to the competition
    29
  115. When you try to disrupt economics, usually the only thing disrupted is your payroll.
    29
  116. "Inflation reduces the value of their long term debt without them having to do anything." I just realized Inflation is a net positive for me and my student loans...
    29
  117. It's pronounced Raik-YAH-vik. In Icelandic the J makes the Y sound and the Y makes the J sound.
    28
  118. Japan's bubble had a lot to do with how unrealized capital gains could count as corporate income. Combine this with how Japan is a nation of savers with most companies owning shares in other companies. So people bought based on good earnings, which made everyone else's earnings rise, and repeat.
    28
  119. Correction: Hundreds of thousands of views doesn't mean tens of thousands in revenue. It depends on donations, sponsorship, and merch sales which varies as wildly as views do. Frankly, this is why YouTubers aggressively monitize because there's high risk even if you are making money
    28
  120. Napoleon Bonaparte once said, "Do not ascribe to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence.
    28
  121. Argentina was always like this
    28
  122. To be fair, it's the same waste of money that real sports are.
    28
  123. Cramer wasn't a ponzi schemer
    27
  124. Can we all appreciate how ironic that a guy who grew up in Soviet Union is running a company called Robinhood?
    27
  125. Ancestry makes money
    27
  126.  @davidanalyst671  bagholder detected
    27
  127. I have a hard time understanding why some people compulsively spend tens of millions a year. What costs that much that you'd risk jail time or bankruptcy to get it? Maybe I'm just too use to living modestly...
    27
  128. Most of it is going to the grunts. Until this year, wages did not keep pace with inflation for obvious reasons.
    26
  129. Anyone else notice Buzzfeed behaves eexactly like a really bad YouTube channel?
    26
  130. It's called incompetence
    26
  131. Shorts cost money and SPACs are volatile.
    26
  132. It's office space war tactic. If you don't like one office and can't get rid of them, you form another with overlapping duties stuffed with cronies.
    26
  133. Never trust a CEO under 40!
    26
  134. Yes, this is the same Andrew Left that shorted GME.
    25
  135. Insider trading is like weed. It's fast money until you get caught.
    25
  136. I think that guy has a professional photoshop those glamor shots of himself. His chest and arms are bigger in the photos than in the live interviews
    25
  137. Not necessarily. An earlier ruler once threw away a truckload of silver at a random construction worker who did a hilarious stunt. That construction worker was Mohammed Bin Laden.
    25
  138. This isn't a matter of sophistication. The SPAC sponsor is incentivized to make a deal, any deal, and investors are really trusting.
    25
  139. A major flaw in the business models of these new restaurants is they assume Americans will like the new exotic foods they're selling. In the real world, Americans are naturally more inclined to Mexican food than Greek food.
    24
  140. I've met some of these guys. Their defense is delusions of organized priced fixings. They'll tell it to all sorts of people without being asked as if it doesn't look suspicious at all
    24
  141. They closed that many stores and only had a 1% sales drop? A lot of stores were really boring places to work, apparently. Then again, even videogame reviewers like Gameranx said they rarely ever visited the place and when they did they realized they could have bought it all online.
    24
  142. Saudi Aramco is foreign operated and is losing money
    24
  143. I wouldn't call ponzi schemers corporate welfare, but yes he did get subsidized by fools.
    23
  144. Is it just me or are old rich dudes too eager to go all in with companies seen as young and hip?
    23
  145. 3:10 Correction: A lot of people besides hedge funds were shorting GME. The whales were simply a handful of hedgies.
    23
  146. They have a Roaring 20s and Great Depression cycle every decade or two.
    23
  147. Ha! The politicians totally took their money and gave them nothing
    23
  148. There's no price point you can sell those at and make a profit
    23
  149. If you look at the competition you want to displace and see it is mostly highly local owner/operators, there might be a reason for it
    23
  150. With fridge renting the seller is pricing in all the people that can't/won't pay/return
    22
  151. Politics is bad for business. Doesn't matter who you're affiliated with.
    22
  152. You got to be frank about Africa: It's highly unlike that any piece of the continent will reach even Mexico's standard of living and corruption is just an overhead cost of business. Keep that in mind when investing.
    22
  153. @Charlie97-r2f  HE was charged, the COMPANY was not and is trying to use the scraps to build trucks but no surprise the bosses not charged are simply lesser assholes.
    22
  154. Theft is mostly pathological. Thrill seeking, envy, or just greed. Some people are never happy unless they own more than others
    22
  155. That doesn't say very much
    21
  156. Yeah, these megacorps that no one person controls all need trends like that to explain major issues.
    21
  157. Correction: The FIFTH largest banking crisis in US history. The Recession, Depression, and Railroad Mania were all bigger. The Banking Collapse of the 1830s was bigger in proportion to the US economy at that time, too.
    21
  158. Somehow I doubt that. They'd get sued immediately for punitive damages. It's more likely whoever is making that allegation simply has debt they refuse to pay for some reason
    21
  159. It's worse inside China. Aggressive competition between carmakers mean they have all become ponzi schemes and cars are sold below costs to gain market share
    21
  160. It's like becoming an actor. It's easy to learn, a lot of people do it for fun, and a handful of people at the top make all the money. On average, streamers lose money.
    21
  161. Just a new coat of paint on payday loans I say
    20
  162. In America, Daigou is known as "straw purchasers" and is heavily associated with cartels.
    20
  163. Consul exclusive games aren't new. Over a decade ago I'd see my friends buy several gaming consuls to play different games they didn't need. Eventually one game platform must win out just to remove redundancy... And it's going to be PC.
    20
  164. I had to explain this to my mother by saying the government doesn't want people to gamble with stocks but there's always ways around it.
    20
  165. Everyone here totally saw this coming.
    19
  166. What would you think of the idea that the explosive growth of venture capital in recent decades is driving all these micro-bubbles? There's 100 times more private equity now than in 2000 and volatility is strangely high even during good times recently. And VC firms and angel investors have there hands all over literally every major fraud and bubble in recent years. Kathy is no exception, as s sizeable portion of her fund's investment are venture capital into "disruptive" firms.
    19
  167. @John S  you're assuming a single journalist could do one major piece every couple months like Hamilton. But at these idiot tech startups you often have separate marketing, research, film crew, writing, accounting, HR, correspondence, PR, and so forth. Managing work takes as much time as doing work with routine meetings, repetitive training session, and nothing happened if it wasn't documented. Oh yes, you can trust them more because dozens of 23 year olds pitched in to make those garbage editorials. It's like what Zuckerberg said about his own company. "It's just managers managing managers."
    19
  168. Spamming the word grift will not absolve you of trading losses nor will it make evidence of fraud magically appear.
    19
  169. Don't buy trash
    19
  170. @WhatSmellsLikeToast  how much did you lose?
    19
  171. The mildest most boring pyramid scheme evar....
    18
  172. And driven upward by insiders trading with each other.
    18
  173. Dude, most private equity funds have rich chumps as investors. And a bigger issue with pensions is that most of them aren't fully funded.
    18
  174.  @davidanalyst671  did you copy paste that not knowing you replied to the same guy twice?
    18
  175. Actual Chinese car makers couldn't copy Tesla even when they had the blueprints.
    18
  176. I'm pretty sure WSM is subscribed to Patrick Boyle...
    18
  177. Found the shoplifter.
    17
  178. They're battling fraud lawsuits and already promised to return some of the money.
    17
  179. Correction: The South Sea and Mississippi and Dutch East India Companies each had market caps in excess of all the current tech stocks combined.
    17
  180. 3:50 Brags about predicting a crash, fails to mention he always predicts crashes, failed to profit from said crash. It's almost as if he doesn't believe half the things he says.
    17
  181. Who said anything about cons? He's definitely addicted to risk, IDK if he's a fraud.
    17
  182. Yes, but it is a cheap way to make custom parts if you need them. I've seen guys use them to make stylized upper receivers for their guns

  185. Robo taxi profit potential is wildly overstated since it is based on current uber prices. If robo taxis were widespread they'd be dirt cheap as taxis available would exceed demand.

  187. Inflation isn't just caused by increasing money supply, but decreasing labor supply and decreasing consumer goods. You may have the same amount of money, but if there's nothing to buy with it....
    16
  188. Lebanese banks are also basically loan sharks as what rules there are in Lebanon are never enforced and most banks are ma and pa ventures (literally). The banks don't trust each other and refuse to cash each other's checks because the only thing more common than hot checks is paranoia about hot checks. This forces people to rely on expensive wire transfers, and they are generally unable to withdraw money as the banks are systemically insolvent and even if there was bank insurance the government would not be able to pay since they are also insolvent. Banking in the turdworld...

  193.  @kapilchhabria1727  they will never turn a profit outside New York Megaopolis. I bet my life upon it
    15
  194. Town squares? Odd thing to think that's where politics was argued. It use to be taverns, cafes, farmers markets, and guesthouses (travelers would swap news while passing through). In fact, a lot of early derivatives trading happened in taverns, and back in the day a lot of people would attend church just to socialize.
    15
  195. 7:50 That doesn't count as fraud, because the deal offered by the SPAC doesn't really change if management knows ahead of time what they're buying. It does pose regulatory issues, though

  206. Chinese exchanges have a lot of blanket bans about who can list and trade, but once you're in it's basically a free-for-all. Very few accounting rules, few limits on leverage, few trading rules.

  207. No juror is going to prejure themselves just to save their shitcoins

  208. It's game theory. As soon as the risks/rewards of a dirty industry become widely known, it has to get reinvented in order to get honest people involved to keep the scheme going.

  209. Americans drive big vehicles because vehicles and gas are relatively cheap there
    14
  210. I've heard people often talk about the unofficial statements investment bankers will say on the cellphones off the recorded lines. That's how rumors spread among market movers. Didn't realize that wasn't entirely legal.

  219. Correction: He was the world's richest man briefly a few years ago due to absurd stock valuations.
    14
  220. Ukraine's pre-war poverty is misleading as the cost of living was dirt cheap (Russia likewise has low wages and extremely low cost of living).
    14
  221.  @audiquagaming  and no one forces anyone here to invest in Wall Street

  222. I first heard of Netflix when they were still delivering movies by mail. I wondered even then why Blockbuster hadn't thought of that...

  224. ​ @LizardSpork  the merger means most of the big games in existence would be owned by a single company. I'll wager everyone on this thread all plays at least one game regularly that Microsoft or Activision owns

    13
  229. There's a clear negative selection bias. These are the companies that would fail a normal IPO
    13
  230. That's usually a sign they don't know anything at all about the topic at hand, but are pretending otherwise.
    13
  231. These idiots don't hire lawyers because lawyers will tell them all the rules they're breaking.
    13
  232. I think they assumed everyone calling in sick to work was both A) seeing a doctor and B) was actually ill.
    13
  233.  @cubicj  like it's possible for one company to upend several completely unrelated sciences. Most of Elon's ideas will go nowhere.

  241. The SEC wouldn't allow an IPO to save a company from bankruptcy.
    13
  242. Interest in free-to-play drifts month to month and year to year as player's interest drifts to things they haven't tried before. Are we sure these guys can CONTINUE to make popular games?
    13
  243. Did he pump it or did he simply have the CEO on the show? Because I got a feeling XL isn't the only liar here.
    12
  244. These companies are also a case in point about the negative selection bias in IPOs. These are the companies whose management don't care about losing the bulk of future profits, ergo many of them are simply not profitable.
    12
  245. About that St Petersburg bottling plant, a lot of fortunes were made ironically during Russia's most severe depression following the fall of the USSR. People who could buy up defunct state run ventures and get them back on their feet usually walked away with major profits. In fact, Russia's current wealthy people are all people who had some money saved during the Soviet days and bought state ventures. How ironic it is that most Russian corporations are run by people who grew up in Soviet Union...

  246.  @jurgenrosmarion7342  The Feds credit is better than your will ever be. Get over it.

  265. Most of these crackdown have nothing to do with Lord Pooh. Every government department acts as its own fief and the bosses don't necessarily even talk to each other.
    12
  266. Their core business is still going strong, though. It's back to near fair value so there's no harm in holding it.

  270. Anyone can get scammed. Anyone can be a scammer.

  271. Subscription is associated with the free-money seeking behavior of some firms. Namely software rented on Subscription that isn't being actively supported/updated
    11
  272. You don't know that. Maybe he was getting paid in worthless stock options
    11
  273. "Exorbitant" is a strong word. College is expensive and a lot of people go to more expensive schools than they can afford or get degrees with no job prospects. Part of my 50k debt is because I switched majors.
    11
  274. Yeah, I recall one guy on WSB that was getting really angry at people's pessimism on Alibaba after Jack Ma disappeared. The reason being was he stood to lose a lot if things didn't pick back up.
    11
  275. Unions haven't killed anyone's profitability

  276. Liquidating. Not necessarily destroying.
    11
  277. He sounds like he predicted 50 of the last two crashes.....
    11
  278. People aren't aware of all the dedicated jobs that go with complicated things, so they do not anticipate any problems with that part of production. Ergo, when management all have zero industry experience because MBA and DEI, you get this crap.
    11
  279. "Amortization of intangible assets" is fancy words for "expensive patents that eventually become obsolete."
    11
  280. Investment banks are full of lawful but awful stuff. They're the only business I know of that at least partially fit dirty business stereotypes.

  283.  @joshwondra9821  why don't we draft you while we're at it?
    11
  284. @K0nt4kt  that's not how "golden parachutes" work, but leading up to the crash he may have given himself performance bonuses based on what he knew to be bogus numbers
    11
  285. After they got people in the door, they switch to the old pricing model
    11
  286. There's no private land ownership either. They do not sell the land, they lease it for 30-70 years.
    11
  287. It's not an investment. Social media accounts are expendable
    11
  288. Interesting bubble. But I can definitively say that most people where I am from would rather buy the house outright with a mortgage rather than make a reverse mortgage
    11
  289. How much did you lose on the stock?
    11
  290. If you use YouTube to stream music or in place of TV, it is also worth your time to pay the 20 bucks a month to remove ads
    11
  291. Someone who wants to run a ponzi scheme without risking jail time.
    10
  292. It was a transparent scheme so its of more grayish ethics, though. They were gambling, not stealing.

  293. How much is Moomoo losing with these expensive promos? Those goons are a little late to become Robinhood
    10
  294. I've been considering shorting her for a while now as she's buying into ALL the bubbles. I already got a put on ICLN and NKLA......
    10
  295. Caveat: The tonnage of China's is misleading because it is of inferior quality and must go through further processing before used in batteries. I can't be sure, but this may be why those Dollar General batteries only last a day.
    10
  296. They don't lose until bagholders sell
    10
  297. Speaking of ETNs, I once found one that had a "hodgepodge of assets." (Their word). I couldn't even find what assets they were tracking making me wonder who would buy something with such arbitrary performance.
    10
  298. It is a negative sum game. It cost time/money to make the racket, but doesn't create more stuff to go around.

  299. For that same reason, Warren Buffet reinsurance business offers insurance plans to insurance companies based on hurricane landfall

    10
  306. Or maybe you just refused to hear a kind word about him
    10
  307. That's the price for the deferred repayments and low interest rates. The government still loses money off these loans.
    10
  308. He was always a ponzi schemer
    10
  309. I'm still shorting it too.
    10
  310. It's called greed

  311. @derekcraig3617  not happening. Simple chemistry, we mine ferrous oxide and we have to oxidize something to make iron

  312. Reporters and editors harbor delusions that there are any barriers to entry for theit business.
    10
  313. Because it doesn't exist.
    10
  314.  @qudizzle1  I know, but the point is EV stocks are so ridiculous that such a pump and dump could be easily achieved and be the largest such scam in history.
    10
  315. They might go full retard and hold...
    10
  316. It's probably a matter of a single accountant given the official size of the firm.
    10
  317. He said in the video that it dates back to peasent farmers giving their landlords a cut of their crops.
    10
  318. Dude, it's a Ponzi scheme providing a platform for ponzi schemes
    10
  319.  @Ardarail  Lebanese, maybe. Making shit up, more likely
    10
  320. He's been directly involved in R&D the whole time. He would later remark the whole thing is much more complicated than anyone at Tesla thought
    10
  321. Probably the same guys that have bought into every bubble over the last 20 years.
    9
  322. They're luxury items. Everyone that owns on also owns a second csr

  323. I would hardly call what they do work. Obviously the only people that will moderate for free are people who are deluded they can singlehandedly control public opinion.
    9
  324. Portugal didn't exactly "give Macau back" since it was the warlord period when they showed up. There was no China back then.
    9
  325. ​ @dhayes907 the big indexes all track big companies and/or track thousands of companies. But yes, big actively managed funds like ARK can easily pump the value of select stocks. They have over 10% stake in many of the companies they own.
    9
  326. The family that steals together, jails together.
    9
  327.  @jakelamotta7904  odd thing to say when the whole video is about systemic issues in stocks.
    9
  328. The profitable ones run through the most densely populated areas of the world. I think the math was that for every mile of rail there must be 10,000 people within walking distance that can easily afford the ticket. Ergo, China has more HSR than all other states put together, and is also the least popular. While Japan has the oldest and most progitable HSR.

  329. What subsidies??

  330. You know the CEO is incompetent when she thinks she was buying her own shares at a steal when she has never made money

  332. "Bank error in you favor. Collect $200."
    9
  333. Only if it's in a growing city. Land in the most expensive places in America has been losing value due to the internet removing the demand for centralized office space. Buildings are a depreciating asset that can be repaired and upcycled, land is a commodity that never expires
    9
  334. The +20% interest will do that

  339. Dude, Russia did ok in the iron curtain days, they can survive current craziness.
    9
  340. Individuals stopped using landlines. Businesses still do.

  341. It's decent DD, but yeah. Amateur stock pickers are a dime a dozen. Cuz that's what they make collectively.
    9
  342. Caveat: Cost of living is dirt cheap in Eastern Europe. I.E. housing costs little, gas costs little, wood costs little, food costs little. Man for man Russian living standards are like the rest of Europe. You see this pattern repeated on a less extreme level with the urban vs rural parts of America.

  343. Found the bagholder

  344. ​ @JohnDoe-sc1bm I repeat, there are videos of inch thick rebarb broken by hand. Chinese innovation revolves around counterfeiting, and there's a meme in China that noodles can be used as a filler material for anything
    9
  345. You can actually tell what people steal based on what stores lock up. These are not essential items, they are minor luxuries and fun stuff.

  348. It's for work he did when he was working 80 hours a week at Tesla.
    8
  349. You bring up the two biggest private equity firms, but understand there are tens of thousands of these firms.
    8
  350. The founders were paid in shares and high valuations made them rich for a short time. The reporters were paid according to reality and they were never profitable. This is why Warren Buffet himself objected to payment in stock options because of wealth inequality. You have two men doing identical work but one guy stays poor and the other guy may or may not get stupidly rich.
    8
  351. Although that happens for very different reasons.
    8
  352. Of course they're laughably bad. Gangsters trying to justify their crimes within the law/ethics always boils down to "I'm not a crook, you're the crook." Like how my sister keeps blasting cops for being stupid when the only reason she's a registered sex offender is because she bragged about her "wonderful relationship" with a teenaged girl... At church.
    8
  353.  @adamkares7549  Except we have better things for that already
    8
  354. That'll take a long time to cause major issue. The average commercial jet is older than you are.
    8
  355. Fun Fact: Women didn't start carrying purses until within the past century. Back when women wore elaborate dresses they had huge pockets sewn into them.

  362. If it's massively undervalued, there may be a reason for it you're unaware of. And the shift to computer games might be going as far as it ever will.
    8
  363.  @GoldOxide8463  Not very much. People play games progressively less as they get older and boys play far more games than girls. That's why all videogames target teenaged boys as those are the ones spending 100% of disposable income on games.
    8
  364. Most moderators are actually contractors that work for a company that gets contract to moderate (READ: mods get fired for any reason at any time). They actually don't pay very well, either. And volumes of stuff to sift through means a lot of casual mistakes can be made.
    8
  365. Short dated SPY puts are never a good idea...
    8
  366. Because the crypto heavyweights have no idea what they're doing either
    8
  367. Doing anything at large scale with peak efficiency is more complicated than it sounds but yeah, these guys simply had no idea what they were doing
    8
  368. Ford and GM are Tesla's big rivals. They're building EV's
    8
  369. ​@adrian33161 I don't vote, and the company confessed to race quotas and it doesn't take a genius to figure out how that leads to underqualified people in high places. Like that Secret Service agent who was aggressive to coworkrs?

  374.  @GoblinUrNuts  it won't happen. I bet the lives of everyone on this thread. Science isn't easy. Even with the most brilliant minds in the world and a Afrikaner billionaire throwing his money away they still don't have an EV that competes with ICE on the market. And you mean to tell me they can sidequest into equally daunting tasks without causing delays?

  380. Tesla is the only profitable green company and sells like half the EVs in the US. The problem is profits are still below subsidies.
    8
  381. Uh, no. That's a fact of the dealer's spread. Carvana would have sold your car for 8k to that same buyer. That's how they make money, and people put up with it rather than do all the work themselves finding a buyer
    8
  382. State colleges are subsidized making them cheaper for a given quality of class. And government loans have much better terms and interest rates than what any private lender can offer (I checked).
    8
  383. Not the case. Most major businessmen are required to be due paying party members. Even Jack Ma was a party member.

  396. But that's the thing: They're relatively cheap to set up and generate continuous cash, which is why most brands simply sell the license to their brands to whomever wants to open a store. Cheap restaurants are pretty safe as long as you're selling what people want because in hard times the middle class stops eating at restaurants while richer people simply eat at cheaper restaraunts.

  420. Correction: Chinese real estate bubbles were not concentrated in a few hands, only a few were big enough to generate global headlines. Two eyewitnesses even found land speculation upon land specuation where people would build sham houses on farms so that they could collected compensation when forced to sell to developers.

  469. Tesla's Chinese branch isn't an exception. A couple years ago they faced fraudulent claims of brake failures, and yes we know they're fraudulent because the vehicle data from the one alleged incident showed the breaks working 40 times just before the crash. Nonetheless government censors allowed sensational incidents to go viral with sycophantic comments all saying they should buy Chinese cars instead. The reason? Well, Tesla had already given up its tech to the Chinese government as required, but no one in China was able to produce knockoffs due to technical limitations. In other words, China's indigenous EV industry couldn't possibly compete with Tesla's factories in China.
    6
  470. Also impossible to enforce collection. At least pawn shops will keep personal items as collateral

  471. The thing about private tutoring in China is that primary schools have tight schedules and large class sides, meaning very little one on one teaching. Understandably most parents would pay to get that little extra one on one stuff.

  477. That's silly. First off, Chinese regulators are for political censorship mainly. Second, Chinese mostly makes mobile games because no firm has the money or expertise for AAA games. Third, "the West" in this case apparently includes everyone but China as only Chinese gamers are cut off from every other market (the biggest mobile game maker is in Israel).

  489. A lot of people really do think active management is better than passive. Don't base your arguments about Hedge Funds assuming you already won that other argument. Also, there's 10,000 hedge funds in the US alone each with their own gimmick. This doesn't include whale investors that are individuals and companies using their money in hedge fund style strategies. Also, performance varies wildly within sectors of hedge funds, and even more wildly between individual funds. Thus it is impossible to make any blanket assessment no matter how much you like to gloat and berate people. Although you can say the fees are ridiculous and is definitely the reason for any underperformance

  496. Most of the hardcore conservatives I've known were young women. Those stereotypes you hear about party demographics are really just slight trends. For instance, Kansas has always been a red state but there's a democrat in office at the moment.
    6
  497. Try the other way around. A lot of thieves present makes nations poor.
    6
  498.  @fooboomoo  crimes certainly render the victims poorer than they. But on a macroeconomic level piracy is a wasteful enterprise, as a thief's profession doesn't actually produce anything and often they destroy things/people in order to steal. Also, crime-proofing efforts also cost money that could be spent elsewhere. More importantly, crime can render legit enterprises unprofitable, like in the recent rioting in South Africa that forced many stores closed due to total loss of inventory to looters. Other more qualitative wastes result like in education. I saw one report from the Central African Republic where apparently elementary school teachers get death threats over grades. This produces a clear trend where the most of the few students that get into high school are not the best students, but rather people personally connected to men with guns. The wages of sin...

  506. Anachronistic? You can't get large appliances on Amazon and most of the fancy clothes either don't fit or are knock offs. And who said they cater to old people? The only anachronism I see is the stereotype that old people don't use computers, a trend that disappeared in the 2000's.
    6
  507. Let this be a lesson that yes, sometimes even billionaires lose everything.

  508. It sounds like they failed because they abandoned diversification. During their good years they had as many as 400 unique positions at a time, while their failures were due to allowing blind chance to dictate success.

  511. I once got into a bait-and-switch scheme. I entered into a drawing for something assuming the cost was they'd sell my info to marketers. They called me saying I "won" but within a minute it became clear the prize was conditional on buying something else. I hung up on them.

  516. Security isn't needed where I am, but Walmart asset protection and greeters catch shoplifters while smaller stores don't have them
    6
  517. There were a bunch of factors. 1. Stiff competition. The Walmart Kmart closest to me back then were right around the corner... In a small town. 2. A boycott. Kmart owned adult bookstores which was enough to get my parents to go to Walmart. 3. Good solutions for the wrong problem. As in the video, as Walmart was relying on people going grocery shopping where prices were generally low, Kmart was still acting like a speciality store.

    5
  541. They lived fine during the iron curtain, why would thus be any different? Then again, if you believed all the internet experts, you would have believed Russia would collapse in a civil war over a month ago, that Russians had both useless equipment and were slaughtering indiscriminately, that Russians were both suffering 80% casualties and were seizing ground, that Russia was a third world country with first rate science and factories, and so on and so forth. The bottom line is the internet is full of it.

    5
  552. Benjamin's video on Keith Gill's Investing Formula explains the extreme form of this. Deep Value investing is the practice of finding obscure garbage companies that no one wants and buying them hoping they recover. Note: This is a high risk strategy even if no leverage is employed, but Mr Gill and Mr Mike Burry do it just fine.

  556. A low risk way to speculate on the Feds is to go long on the VBR and short the QQQ. If the Feds keep raising interest, if hi-growth slows down, and if speculative frenzies end, then value will outperform growth, as it has over the past month.

  561. Complaining about American debt-to-GDP is a bit silly since these days many countries and economies fraudulently hide debt while in others personal debt is very high but unrecorded since they are loans between individuals (google Hawala). Also, the US is among the fastest growing developed countries, of course there's plenty of debt, but most of it is not due to "frivolous consumption."
    5
  562. At least some of the victims would have known it was a scam but tried to get early and get out early. Being an early fraud victim can be a low-risk form of fraud, because you can co-scam by being a promoter. Return is less because you don't necessarily get in first, but there's zero risk of jail time.

The children of potheads and thieves are generally so pathological and/or stupid that they treat the crime and the punishment a week later as unrelated matters. One bus driver said that a student said as much because he wasn't suspended immediately, but in that case the principal heard of this and that kid was expelled the next day.

  600. Correction: The alternative to 3d printing is subtractive manufacturing. It's where you take a brick of material and cut it into shape. Most Aluminum parts are made this way, but steel allows forging and plastic can be injection molded. The only real use case for 3d printing is custom parts made on site, like when an engineering firm needs to test to see if their machine works or an astronaut needs a replacement part.

  705. 1:35 "The acting industry is highly competitive and only a small percentage make it." Can confirm. My old theatre professor friend said there were three ways to become an actor: Nepotism, dumb luck, and hardwork/talent. And while universities pump out a lot of industry professionals and minor actors, being hansom is an absolute requirement for being the star.
    4
  706.  @jw8284  that's bull. The "old people don't use computers" ceased to be true nearly two decades ago. People go to Dilliards because most of the fancy clothes on Amazon either doesn't fit or is a knockoff and you can't easily order large appliances online. Also, Sears was Dillard's competitor, meaning the collapse of one leaves a vaccuum for the other. I don't see Dillard's expanding much, but their economic moat is there.

  745.  @harmeharkhanna4225  there are some big skews to that because market bubble. For instance, in the US most of solar power's profitability comes from government subsidies, and even then it struggles to be as profitable as nuclear energy which is the subject of punitive regulations made for the express purpose of reducing their numbers (politicians don't know jack about science or economics). Also, tech problems about "green" energy are far more widely published than those of gas motors and nuclear, so understand that scientific progress has no regard for politics. All the above are cheaper and more effective now than ever before.

This problem is so systemic in the army that it's like a MLM scheme where men pay off their bosses by selling more ranks. On top of that a private tutoring industry will always be big business as China's public schools are lacking in quantity and quality as gradeschool class sizes of 60 or higher is the norm. Schedules are tight, teachers are underpaid, and there's a heavy reliance on standardized tests at all levels.

  798. The weird part is you don't even need to commit fraud to make money trading your own stock. 1. Pay the execs in shares instead of cash. 2. Publicly perform share buybacks. 3. Repeat until the share float is tiny. 4. File with the SEC to sell your shares in block trades.

  847. Really? There's 6500 publicly traded companies worth over a billion in the US alone. Given the US arrests 7 million people a year out of a population of 330 million, it seems statistically speaking corporate execs are just as honest as the surrounding population.

    3
  851.  @justhecuke  Selling things to parents is profitable. What parents want and kids want are not always the same. Obviously parents care nothing about Twitch streamers. My sister once noted that a lot of toys at the store look like things she remembers having as a kid, which is why the sale works because my sister immediately thought her kid would like it. You will also note the most popular kids movies are things that adults don't mind watching with their kids.

  852. @weird-guy  that's silly. Most YouTubers make very little money. Your misconception comes from how the algorithm is a popularity contest with the winners taking most of the views. Mr. Beast and others with mass market appeal are not typical cases and they frankly generate little money per view and have low viewer retention. The other side of YouTube are professional niche channels with lower view counts, high subscriber retention, and higher revenue per subscriber through donations and merch. For instance, the Time Ghost family of channels is run by a handful of historians and YouTube censorship seriously effect their ability to pay rent.

  860.  @GoblinUrNuts  It. Doesn't. Matter. What they do later. They'll still be overvalued. And also go broke, because they're overleveraged as is and depend on sales of currently non-existent tech to pay the bills. Also, the time scale people are dealing with is pure science fiction. If we went full EV tomorrow, the majority of cars on the road will still be gas 5-10 years from now. Because that's how long cars last. But we won't do that tomorrow as the cars and factories haven't been invented yet. If they were invented tomorrow, it would take 5-10 years to build all the infrastructure. But they won't be invented tomorrow, in fact they may be physically impossible but we don't know it yet. Even if Tesla succeeds, you're talking about succeeding in at least 20-40 years. This is a speculative bubble no matter what metric you use.

Their aristocrats make money from taxing them (government revenue belongs to the king), and a few of the Qataris make a decent living working for the foreigners. In Luxemburg their racket is corporate taxes are really low, so companies all across Europe will put their offices there, overall increasing revenue and creating nice office jobs for locals.

  882. I use to work at a US refinery, and US regs certainly have a negative impact.

  891. The excess savings is suspect. Even at the height of the bubble in China people were spending as much as 3/4 wages on mortgages. I don't know how or why that data would be manipulated though
    3
  892. ​@luting3 Come on. We all know you'd say that regardless if it were true. And we know for a fact the majority of Chinese people do not have bank accounts at the moment due to the bank crisis last year. But on second thought, that may explain the skew, as it may be the few people who still use banks have lots of money. For instance, the savings rate of a criminal racketeer may exceed 100% since he must launder ill gotten gains.

  1007.  @evanh9301  there's a story to it. In China all companies must be majority China owned, so Tesla must take on partners and all partners must have the blueprints (this is how Chinese knockoffs have been made for decades). A lot of Tesla's car parts require multi-million dollar machines to make. Like how one piece involves the world's biggest hydraulic press and plastic mold using liquid metal to form one part. Given the need for multi-billion dollar investments and expertise many auto makers don't have, Chinese auto makers are unable to make any knockoff of Tesla. Their cars cost more and do less. So that's why the harassment/libel/vandalism campaign started against Tesla's Shanghai gigafactory.

  1012. That's a bunch of regurgitated rhetoric that means nothing and contradicts basic math. The HSR losses are so severe that railroads raise the prices on freight shipping to the point that it is cheaper to truck across China than to ship it by rail. Raising ticket prices won't help as the target demographic can only pay so much and will simply take a bus if ticket prices are too high. In order for HSR to be profitable, every mile must be surrounded by a dense population within walking distance that can easily afford the ticket. That's why the oldest and most profitable HSR is in Japan. And yes, there were geopolitical strategies involved. But as with the exotic ideas of all politicians it is unclear if the sunk costs did anything at all to prevent the resurgence of warlords. Just as it is unclear if there were ever any significant amount of Islamists in Xingjiang. E

Banks lend to people/companies at a rate of the return of T-bills plus extra to cover default risk. Equity funding, however, has an expected return of debt plus some extra to cover the risk of the venture (more risky your business the less they value your company). If any of these are out of whack from each other, people will simply borrow at one rate and lend at another and make a risk free profit.

  1104.  @TheAlchemist1089  the city's bread and butter was automotive manufacturing and had a substantial inner city with crime and gangs. During the 2008 crash demand for new cars dropped as struggling families bought used cars or more carefully maintained old ones to save money. Many factories closed and people moved away and some reopened elsewhere years later. The crime rate per capita increased as the people who stayed were often the ones with gang connections, or drug addictions, or without college educations that could get them jobs in other cities. Many abandoned buildings exist and landowners will take any price for rent/purchase of property just so they get something out of it.

  1180. Example of how fraudulent China's green energy was. For a little while China boasted the rate their power supply was going away from natural fuel faster than anyone else. However, what they didn't mention was unlike most developed nations they were still building coal plants. The reason the switch appeared fast is because most Chinese power plants don't live long enough to get overhauled, meaning they only lasted 1/10th as long as first world counterparts. Also, they included a bunch of windmills cities put up for show and never worked to begin with. There were also skews in press releases, loudly projecting future successes while occasionally reporting failures. Like when a natural gas pipeline was built to China, regulators banned many uses of coal based on wild speculation. Of course, the pipeline wasn't ready by winter and people had to break the law to stay warm. This appears to be a repeat of that nonsense on a grand scale.

  1182. All you have to do is say what the press wants to hear and threaten people with lawsuits and nobody asks questions.

  1185.  @4lyfMotorhead  come on. We all know you'd say that regardless if it were true
    2
  1186.  @antman7673  you seem to think everyone in the world feels a need to punish Russians
    2
  1187.  @lonyo5377  Trumpt didn't do that either, nitwit. On account the Fed controls monetary policy and the Fed straight up ignored Trump.

  1191. I was in it for a time, closed at a good profit. I'm back to shorting directly, but SARK's fee is well worth removing the infinite risk in shorting.
    2
  1192. Media attention is definitely the cause.
    2
  1193. The idea younger people are more tech savvy became obsolete when the smart phone was invented.
    2
  1194. Those who try to artificially change demographic trends find out why they exist in the first place. The investors should have known she was a fraud just by the statement that she believed there was "unconscious racial bias" which is not possible.

  1195. What?
    2
  1196. Do you got a death wish

  1197. You advertise Moomoo enough that you should disclose how they make money if not by commissions.
    2
  1198. How much in the red are you?
    2
  1199. Lying isn't necessary here. It's just like most startups. Shit management, all risk, questionable rewards
    2
  1200. If it really becomes widespread it'll have to compete with every other car company. Like Uber it would very quickly become a low margin business.

  1204.  @titanicisshit1647  what?
    2
  1205. A Tesla market cap exceeding the market share of the entire auto industry as of 2019? Do you know the meaning of the word bubble? And you can't credit them for inventing devices that don't exist yet as they still haven't made an EV with identical performers to a gas vehicle of the same price. Especially when the other tech and insurance schemes involve massive leaps between industries and branches of science.
    2
  1206. The average firm in China is pretty small. They had a similar issue with their warships because even state backed firms couldn't make anything bigger than a destroyer and they were all relying on temp workers because turnover was absurd.
    2
  1207. ​@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley yeah, high profile crimes generally have zero impact on things like public trust or industry efficiency. A gang can murder a politician for refusing to be bribed but that simply doesn't effect anyone else's lives

    2
  1225. @incremental_failure  selling below costs has the same payoff diagram as a ponzi scheme, and no most companies don't do it because the ones that do don't last very long. There are weird growth schemes involving selling at costs and/or selling below costs and monetizing by alternate means. That is an important bit of wisdom: Most startups are ALMOST ponzi schemes

  1235. Because it's not worth the asking price otherwise
    2
  1236. Yeah. I bit the bullet and sold this stock last month. I have no interest in fake meat but certainly some people do.
    2
  1237. They did. See the heavy fines. Investment banks are pretty notorious for this creative lawful but awful stuff, though.
    2
  1238.  @leadingauctions8440  these aren't the same banks getting busted every time and these aren't felonies. The fines are mind bogglingly large, but that is due to the simply scale of modern banks.
    2
  1239. It's hard to show how much they stole in such frauds as a lot of investors would have bought in anyway.
    2
  1240. I can't tell if you're joking
    2
  1241. God also told him not to lie, which he certainly did.
    2
  1242.  @oiinahgiiusadurrybrahchuck7209  Jail for fraud/theft, fines for anti-competitive behavior. That seems to be the current zeitgeist, and I personally would object to do anything worse to someone who didn't physically hurt anyone. Rather, it seems there are a lot of people with sour grapes on the internet that want mass punishment of the richest people literally no matter what they do. This is why you see Musk, Bezos, and Gates get all sorts of baseless rumors spread against them the instant they become the richest man in the world.
    2
  1243. The board of directors was so bad that Patrick Boyle said they were just a bunch of hippies on shrooms

  1248. No one cares

  1249.  @averystratton999  you are not the average politician
    2
  1250. Every Chinese meme stock counts.
    2
  1251. Yeah, Palantir is making a profit, just not much
    2
  1252. Reverse that logic. How often does the establishment of business monopolies actually lead to artificially high prices? You see? Anti-trust laws don't matter, what matters is the integrity of the average person in a given industry.
    2
  1253. Lose the bull
    2
  1254.  @joncampbell5021  so does my mother. It's irrelevant.

  1257.  @milamarshall7842  Nikola is a real company now that Trevor Milton got arrested. They're trying to build an assembly plant with the leftover scraps.It's still wildly overvalued because many of the victims never sold.

    2
  1262.  @McDLT999999999999999  Do you have a death wish?
    2
  1263. No, major corporations really can fail. You see here there was stiff competition and certain Christian groups were boycotting them because they also owned adult videostores. The nearest Wal-mart to my hometown use to have a K-mart around the corner. This was a rural area, you couldn't have both.
    2
  1264. And yet, just a tiny cog in the US economy

  1267. We literally are one of the biggest chip makers. Just because Taiwan had an issue with their factories does not mean they're all in Taiwan

  1268. Illegal? Lose the bull, governments set their own currency rules, and it is literally their job to keep a currency stable. Trading their foreign currency reserves for rubles, and deleting surplus rubles, they can reverse the effects if the split.

  1269.  @dirtydangler  they're our sidekick, and are virtually indistinguishable from us, so who cares.

  1270.  @dirtydangler  Uh... Is that a joke? Is English an exotic language to you? Do you not know where Canada is?
    2
  1271. The competition were highly localized owner/operators. There was a reason for that.

  1276. A lot of these crowdfunding places are offerring 20% discounts due in half a year. That's four times the return of the market and justifies four times the risk.
    2
  1277. @texchu8331  you will never use AI in a PC
    2
  1278. I was at one hotel while I was a truck driver straddling the Nevada/Utah border (only hotel in town that was not also a casino). I get in and immediately notice the manager is "an immigrant" and the license on the wall is fake. He told me only two bed rooms were available and I took it as I had already been up 20 hours. The guest density of the hotel everywhere I looked proved that was a lie, and I google reviewed accordingly. That idiot must think he's making fast money scamming chumps when he gets zero returning customers and I honestly fear for that lone hispanic cleaning lady I saw.

  1285.  @jnimitzch4738  that's so non-specific an allegation as to be useless. WHO used WHAT info, and HOW do you know this and what happened to the accused
    2
  1286. Your libel is so bad the casual observer you're trying to deceive has no idea what you're talking about

  1292.  @luting3  don't you have an ebike to confiscate?
    2
  1293. No one is failing because their own boycotts
    2
  1294. That flatly conflicts the stereotype.
    2
  1295.  @drek273  that's what the colonists said a century ago. Most of those guys got ethnically cleansed for their property. Do you have any idea how much crime is on the continent?
    2
  1296.  @taylorbug9  yes, they are all former colonies whose GDP has been falling with each decade.
    2
  1297.  @drek273  you misunderstand. The height of Africa's GDP was right at the end of the colonial period and the colonists were no more violent or dishonest than anyone else on the continent. The independence of these states started their fall, like how in Angola all the Portuguese commercial farmers were killed or driven off only for the people to immediately starve since none of them knew a thing about commercial farming. Now, you can still profit from investing in Africa, you just need to be aware of the limits imposed by systemic poverty, the costs imposed by theft, and the costs imposed by the need to import or improvise anything more complicated than a shovel.
    2
  1298. Bloated? How?
    2
  1299. How much did you lose on the stock?
    2
  1300. Could you make it more obvious that you're a thief?
    2
  1301. Applying the "most evil" label to a corporation is a bit silly given serial rapists and terror bombers and mafias exist
    2
  1302. They're so common because literally anyone can do this scam and there's potentially big money. This is also why most of these attempts are silly and have no chance of success because the thieves don't know what they're doing and/or they have no clout whatsoever.

  1307. I find his lack of PANTS disturbing.

    2
  1309. People should have known China, the country, was a scam based on their consumption of luxury goods alone.
    2
  1310. Gingko's alleged business model isn't even new, as there are many contract laboratories. It's a fat margin, high risk business as sometimes you get big orders, sometimes you don't. This is even how "orphan drugs" are made.

    2
  1315. Most don't

  1316. ​@tellyboy17 you'd be surprised how well educated these guys are. Some people plan to rely on charity or defaults to get out of paying.
    2
  1317. Something the board also talked about was converting Musk's shares into founder's shares giving him extra voting power. How much that is worth in dollar terms is debateable.
    2
  1318. Chinese stock and business is so volatile there's never any telling what any one stock will do.
    2
  1319. Morningstar is gave them a fair value of over three times what they're currently trading at, but no economic moat and high risk. Know the risks
    2
  1320. Ha. Consumers will not buy EVs at any profitable price point
    2
  1321.  @christiangonzalez865  no. Actually.

  1322. Adani: Hinderberg is the Madoff of Manhattan. Hindenburg: Madoff was from Manhattan, you idiot.
    2
  1323. I think WSM is mixing up criminal reports from the US with Chinese Commie slander. Many years in China a guy known as Toad Face wanted an excuse to form his private army, and at the time some of these Falong Gong people were rioting over a small matter, so Toadface simply declared them a cult. Since 1 and 5 Chinese were part of this group, including senior officials, Toadface could and did arrest anyone he wanted. That ended a few years ago, but that's why you find these guys everywhere but China now, and of course they're all involved in the same types of crimes that are common in China.
    2
  1324.  @MartinMcAvoy  Or current. No one really knows, and there's a lot of malicious rumors surrounding that fact.
    2
  1325. This is actually why I left Robinhood. I trade enough semi-liquid options I think I actually save money by paying standard commisions.
    2
  1326. 45/month to get expelled from university. What is generated by AI is detectable by AI and humans. One guy I met said he saw two nearly identical history exams.

  1333. Jealous?

  1334.  @rightwingsafetysquad9872  IIRC thehead of research has had no other full time job but ARK Invest. That's how young they are
    2
  1335.  @aaronhpa  Lying about people simply because they have more money than you is textbook jealousy. Do you have any other sins to confess, bro?
    2
  1336.  @aaronhpa  delusions that fortunes are made by piracy is a classic sign of piracy.
    2
  1337.  @aaronhpa  I do not believe you are employed
    2
  1338. Not always, but if they feel the need to say so then there is definitely reason to believe otherwise
    2
  1339. That's a for-profit charity organizer. And that sum is modest compared to how big they were @MexicanWorkEthic 
    2
  1340.  @Old_Jack_Ketch  It works. Andrew Carnegie once said that he was in the business of manufacturing libraries. He made all that money from rails and factory and most of it he used to build public libraries and donate them to the city. That's why many American and Scottish libraries are called Carnegie.
    2
  1341. Mistrust of governments isn't why anyone used crypto. It was always just money laundering and speculation
    2
  1342. +95% of bitcoin are held in -5% of wallets and the coins are thinly traded. There are A LOT of whales that can move the price.

  1357. Ha
    2
  1358. You mind lending me that crystal ball when you're done?
    2
  1359. It's an oversimplification. The MBAs promised the customers conflicting things, saying they could make the plane hi-tech and cross-compatible with older planes so they wouldn't need to retrain pilots. The engies tried, but there was the schedule, the compatibility, or the hi-tech and one of them had to go. Compatibility went, so a safety critical system still worked, just not in the way the pilots thought it worked so it was not used correctly
    2
  1360. Binary options would make a great video. Israel banned them because most traded were from one fraudulent broker.

  1361. No. His show only talks about large caps and I've seen him cut himself off when he mentioned a small cap for this very reason. A lot of small YouTubers will do exactly that, though.

  1373. Is that a joke?

  1387. Because ultimately all costs are labor costs. And when you only need a handful of humans you can afford to pay them better.

  1389. People like to pretend the cost of an existential war is irrelevant, but all the production and manpower of a given nation is both finite and can be quantified in money. There's a point where it doesn't matter how much money you have, there is no one to pay with it because every scrap of labor that can be used for war already is. That's how Napoleon was done in.

  1442. Garbage report. All the alleged incidents were actually debunked. The guys who pulled their money out before the Covid crash weren't acting on confidential info, they simply sat in on detailed reports of the spread and effects. And Mr Peloci made plays on big tech stocks with no known insider info. Allegedly he knew of Biden's orders to government to buy EV before it happened, but no one can confirm or deny that, and switching to EV was Mr Biden's campaign promise so it wasn't insider info. Note with politicians you're dealing with a small sample size of people, where even a crime rate of one felony in 1000 people every year (which is a huge crime rate) means there would only be one Federal hotshot going to jail every two years. This also means that a handful of skilled plays (like Peloci's 5 million dollar gains) will massively offset the average. There is also a very high turnover rate, so it is implausible to say they are more or less honest than the population in general. What these guys definitely have is informational advantages, in the same way professional fund managers have informational advantages over retail traders. Congressmen can guage the mood in Washington much better than ordinary people who are relying on flaimbait editorials (like WSM is right here). Lose the sour grapes, guys.

  1445. @AffidavidDonda  assuming that's true it's irrelevant since lithium batteries are expensive. Pneumatic energy storage and pumped hydroelectric storage are common in power plants simply because it's cheap
    2
  1446. I'd doubt it because the guy taking my money has delusions of systemic and total corruption. If he thinks that's just how the world works why would he be so generous to me?
    2
  1447. That's silly. The biggest buyers are the banks whose bidding sets the price
    2
  1448. That's an oxymoron
    2
  1449. Not exactly. If the guy is lying to them it might be a while before he gets caught (people trust their coworkers). What really needs to be looked at is the crazy incentive structures at investment banks in general. Pay isn't just performance based but so is hiring/firing and every year someone gets sacked and someone else promoted to fill their place. This is what caused that one commercial bank's employees to falsify data because they didn't want their friends to be fired for missing quotas.
    2
  1450.  @rdean150  yeah, but ultimately all the work is done by undervalued employees and someone who knows the system would know what he can get away with.

  1453. You envy his money?
    2
  1454. No. Puts are expensive and these things are crazy
    2
  1455.  @pdorism  they were shorting and had currency positions too, though. That reduces that effect until immediately after the crash when all the valuations change and you must completely revise what you're doing.

    2
  1462. The options are expensive due to the market pricing in +100% moves

  1463. It's also cheap because they're ponzi schemes selling at a loss, they steal from employees, and they dilute the steel.

  1465. With Valve freemium games you also need to make at least one purchase to get voicechat, stats, and other stuff enabled. It's worth the three bucks if you play regularly.

  1480.  @tiararoxeanne1318  Vlad Tenev, Nikola Tesla, Thomas Edison, and Elon Musk were all immigrants. Being an immigrant doesn't make you small fry, and being in government doesn't make you dirty. Besides, there's a whole list on Wikipedia of politicians who've been charged with felonies (none of which had anything to do with stock markets). I also saw a statistic saying 1,000 cops were arrested each year (mostly substance abuse related). I don't know the stats for bureaucrats getting busted, but I saw one case where a Treasury Department clerk was arresting for leaking every classified document she could find simply because she voted for the other guy.

  1481. There's nothing in here to say arrogance

  1482.  @kiklocus4660  he'd spend a lifetime paying it back and would live in an ordinary home forever. The Irish billionaire who lost everything actually ended up moving into a house down the street from where he grew up. I know you're thinking in terms of Nick Cage's bankruptcy, where the solution to the debt was to star in as many movies as possible, but it is possible for super rich people to literally lose all of it.
    2
  1483.  @kiklocus4660  he spent money wildly and ended up having to sell many of his luxuries and work a bunch of shows to pay debts. This is why he starred in so many mediocre movies where he usually played permutations of the same character

  1484. Electricity isn't cheap enough in Salvador for that to be profitable. Remember, you're competing with firms that are abusing government subsidies for energy in many countries

  1535. Mismanagement is not a crime, and you're talking nonsense. If you're referring to the corporate raiding that was because he jumped into Wall Street back when it was dying. It was during the inflationary era when people simply stopped buying paper assets because they lost value with the dollar and they stopped borrowing because banks would charge extra to make up for inflation. Stocks were so cheap that some traded for a fraction of the value of the real world stuff they owned so management simply took their own companies private and the corporate raiders forced this upon fund managers that didn't want to do it because they could simply buy the funds and sell the assets.

After that it works like any other online store, with low overhead, a digital economy, and modest monthly revenue. That's why Valve buys up games with long term player activity amd turns them into freemium games marketed on their store (Steam).

  1600. China's EV mandates are fake. It's just a way to funnel subsidies to cronies who build EVs, sell to affiliated entities who scrap and sell the parts back to the factory. Many just skip the middlemen and sell vehicles back and forth between affiliated entities while the vehicle rots in a field. This is also why Chinese EVs are strangely cheap as many of the fraudsters have to dump their stock and the other automakers cut prices to match, turning the whole industry into a ponzi scheme.

  1601. There were also MBAs and Chinese parts suppliers involved.

  1602.  @gamingweasel4633  Ha. No, people ignore delusions that arms manufacturing is unethical as soon as they get paid. Their managers were mostly MBA majors who did run a DEI program and also outsourced parts to turdworld countries. Remember the exploding door? Those parts came from Malaysia.

  1638. China driving growth of luxury goods? That quite a revelation as the vast majority of luxuries in China are knockoffs or completely fake. At the same time, even Chinese of modest means will buy luxury items just to show off. Chinese influencer culture is also not about fitness and friends like its western counterpart, but about wealth and romance. It should highlight how hollow China's alleged growth is.

  1677.  @hill160881  That's false on multiple levels and IDK where you're getting this besides your butt. Mr. Musk hired a lot of industry experts but did have to learn some things the hard way and he did invent a few new machine tools. Tesla's profitability is less than the net subsidies they're receiving for being an EV company and all the conventional car makers generate far more revenue per car and per share. It's just another car maker.

  1709.  @TimeToGetIntense  I'm not overthinking interest rates, I'm simplifying the whole market. That is, assuming all else is equal, the return of a stock is the return of a T-bill plus a suitable risk premium. Does that not sound fair from a simple economics perspective?
    1
  1710.  @egal1780  IDK, the volatility and often absurd valuations come down to expected future value. The companies in the video were pitched as "the next Chipotle" and by all accounts that COULD be true but it is difficult to assess the chances of that being true. The insane part is that all these different growth companies can't all become the next big thing, so the average return is actually pretty low... In fact, the average return should add up to the return of T-bills plus a risk premium.

    1
  1784. Misleading, as rich Romans had homes that included rental houses, offices, and amenities. The custom was the whole bottom floor would be the landlord's area and 4-6 stories worth of rooms to rent out with shared living areas. The bottom floors were most desireable since that was where the running water and sewar pipes were.

  1785. @jacobkyle4573  lying isn't necessary in this instance. The shift was simply one that favored small business to big business after industrialization.

  1789. Most convictions in the western world involve some sort of whistleblower or 911 caller.

  1790.  @j3i2i2yl7  did they declare that? These SPAC sponsors like managers saying "they have a target company in mind" because that means there's a high chance of deal closing

  1794.  @dangerouslytalented  I saw videos where thick rebarb and concrete was broken with bare hands. It's all being actively diluted and most new projects demolish old one. There's some convoluted reasons for this.
    1
  1795.  @dangerouslytalented  not to half this extent. One report from an anonymous real estate manager said fierce competition meant profit margins rarely exceeded 10%, but some spend as much as 30% on bribes. Blueprints are often straight up ignored just to scrape out profit. One racket is for a local official to give the contract to a shell company owned by a relative. This company will subcontract all the work to someone else, and split the difference with the official.
    1
  1796.  @dangerouslytalented  if you're receiving any. Most of the time builders simply scalp on building materials (like adding bottles to concrete). Defaults on payroll are frequent.

It stands there's not a single known instance of insider trading among politicians and the cases you're thinking of right now have been debunked.

  1864.  @davidbryant3532  You assume it would be built outside the US, and the law says they must let a US firm bid
    1
  1865. @davidbryant3532  No such law exists, but there are rules which nudge in that direction like the one I mentioned. The main guns on M1 Abrams are actually German. Also, there's for lack of a better term discrimination where the Pentagon and Congress preferencially choose US companies unless they need to butter someone up. Like how 5.56mm became NATO standard because a US colonel argued in favor of a US made cartridge and Churchill let the US have its way on small matters

  1866. @davidbryant3532  you're 17, aren't you? The CIA definitely bought several thousand untraceable Uzzies from Israel. There's no law saying we can't put a woman in charge of an army in the field we just don't because that's rerarded

  1890. The problem being ETFs do block trading, meaning the cost per share bought for them is a tiny fraction as it is for you. Ergo, you will likely get the same performance as a passive ETF. Meaning active ETFs and closed end funds are often invested in exotic or illiquid assets (like private equity and swaps) that you simply don't have access to. Although it is worthwhile to assemble your own ETF if you want.

  1958. There's a bit of a conflict with journalism: The best journalism is slow, payouts irregular and uncertain, and overheads high. The cheap journalism might not be as good but can easily make enough money to justify the price. For instance, VICE's One Star Review series might have been nothing special, but it easily got enough clicks to turn a profit. Still, they definitely didn't pay that reporter enough.

  1969.  @nickhiggins9807  could get that much, not guaranteed. Some very popular videos are demonitized and directed at audiences that don't buy stupid stuff. Porn stars can get impressive amounts for a short time when relatively small numbers of assholes compete to show off how rich they are. Shows like WSM rely on donations from channel regulars to stay afloat even if they have large audiences.

  1970. Oddly specific whataboutism. Who said they're paid in options? And this is public info so... Nope, Larry Fink receives most of his pay in shares, not options.

Porche owns 32% of Volkswagon, but the state of Lower Saxony has passed three measures: That corporations need 81% majority for major actions, Lower Saxony will never sell their 20% stake in Volkswagon, and they will never allow the company's main production plant to leave Lower Saxony (hence the comically oversized factory).

  1991.  @kenxiong6830  Most of Iran's work has been sabotaged to oblivion already, but that's still unclear as it is still an ongoing clandestine war.

However, they also get 30% tax cut on money made from selling EVs as do the dealers and buyers not including state specific subsidies. It is more accurate to say that without all these government incentives, Teslas would be far too expensive for the consumer market.

  2123. 4:00 Covid deaths depend how you count and how well you count. If you have a mild case of Covid and have another ailment, some countries will count that as a Covid death and others won't, a major skew when Covid deaths are mostly those of frail dispositions. Also, turdworld countries like Sri Lanka generally lack the technicians and the equipment to accurately diagnose the bulk of Covid cases, and given the poor sanitation the real number is likely much higher than the provable number.

Mr. Beast and others with mass market appeal are not typical cases and they frankly generate little money per view and have low viewer retention. The other side of YouTube are professional niche channels with lower view counts, high subscriber retention, and higher revenue per subscriber through donations and merch. For instance, the Time Ghost family of channels is run by a handful of historians and YouTube censorship seriously effect their ability to pay rent.

  2290. Dear Wall Street Millennial: I'm sure a lot of your views would love to hear about the Albanian Ponzi Scheme Bubble. It was very similar to this story, but there were a lot of major scams in a very small country. Mamy of the scammers were caught, but the country went bankrupt and general rioting resulted and looting of government buildings. This was part of the start of the Kosovo War, but that's prolly beyond this channel's scope.

  2338.  @Prizax  that's a gross exaggeration. Tesla has big factories all over and supply chains are insanely complicated. And again, a lot of Chinese people don't want Tesla competing in their markets, and Mr Musk ain't a commie so the idea anyone could give him orders is absurd.
    1
  2339.  @wamnicho  most Chinese people don't own cars. They rely on public transit or use bikes, ebikes, scooters, etc. Even when they own cars they're little cheap cars. This is due to both poverty and how congested most Chinese cities are.
    1
  2340.  @wamnicho  there's still a car market in China just as there's one in Mexico. Also a lot of car makers and investors have unrealistic expectations for the Chinese market due to the commie's... Creative accounting. And Chinese state run news have made all sorts of outlandish predictions. At one point it was stated as fact human cloning would be a thing in a few years, once it was announced 300 nuclear reactors were announced, recently it was announced that a thorium reactor was being built, once it was announced a giant space mirror was being built fir artificial daylight and so on and so forth. Most of these predictions are never attempted, and most of those fail in the attempt.

Like one PC assembler who had no cash and more PCs in back order than they had parts. This meant they were taking money from current buyers and using it to make the PCs of past buyers who had been waiting for progressively longer to get their stuff
    1
  2371. @incremental_failure  you say that because firms exposed as ponzis are bankrupt. The thing is the men involved all know it's unsustainable and they'll need to become profitable, but greed takes hold. And how long a firm can sustain losses depends on how much they're losing and at what rate they borrow

    1
  2485.  @marcwood2741  how much DD does the average retail stock picker do? Right, and you can expect the average retirement account holder to do less. People who hold such accounts do so because they do want to dive into the convoluted world of investing.
    1
  2486.  @marcwood2741  and you expect granny to know which is safer statistically? It's something a lot of traders like us don't grasp: What the average person is, where you are relative to the average person, and what the average investor is relative to both.

  2730.  @wpaia  The source of your whining is mostly down to global economies and lots of industries with huge minimum buy-ins like oil drilling, chip production, and large aircraft.

  2731. That's not how that works. More investors = share dilution, as in Bezos owns less of the company and hence profits less. They profit as long as stock VALUATIONS keep going up, and employees as low as shift managers were being paid with free stock options (they profit at investor expense).

Back when he was a kid he was doing YouTube stuff all day everyday except when he had to go to school. By the time he got out of high school he was making fast money and he just spent it all on making more videos. Across his entire lifespan, he has talked to cameras far more than he has talked to people. The real risk of the video is that someday he will simply stop. Maybe he will get married, maybe he offs himself, maybe he will be kicked from YouTube for stupid reasons. In any case, not worth investing in.

  2911. That statement is fraud and you will be doxxed if you do not remove it

  2914. Only if you don't mind going to jail. Besides, you can use publicly disclosed legal insider trading to trade. There is use to be an ETF that tracked the 100 companies with the most insiders buying their own stocks.

  2918. It's a narrow margin business, fool. And these aren't felonies.
    1
  2919.  @richardwhite2730  uh, no. If you haven't been paying attention, there's all sorts of creative misdemeanors. And the majority of these are bankers acting independently to boost their bonuses. What I would damn about investment banking as a whole is the cutthroat competition inside the bank. Most of them fire and promote the botton 10% and top 10% based almost exclusively on who makes them the most money. As well as many other sorts of incentives. Like how many promise six figures to recent college grads if they stay with the company 5-10 years (investment bankers are generally younger and less mature than real bankers). Of course, in order to last that long you must make fast money, and again due to narrow margins small ripoffs go a long way and small problems will cost you your job.
    1
  2920.  @richardwhite2730  Yeah, it's called individual bankers getting greedy, like a lot of the people on this thread. And when I say creative I mean there always another novel hustle.
    1
  2921. To do that you'd have to prove systemic crime, while it's hard enough to connect individual bankers to these crimes as they're generally just giving clients anything they want no questions asked.

  2922. 10:30 Correction: They are all frauds claiming their cars are modern when they're all built from off the shelf parts and sold below costs to gain market share. Russian drivers say they are ridiculously cheap but only last a year or so.

  2930. Lying isn't necessary in this instance. Wages didn't keep pace with inflation, but that was AFTER the trouble started. They didn't want raises because they didn't have the money, and idiot managers were often paid in stock which went as wel as you think

  2938. @tripplefives Scandinavia isn't the whole of Europe. Actually, Norway isn't even in the EU fully exactly because of green peace nonsense (Norway relies on fish, whales, oil, and mining). Also, Norway can't supply the whole of Europe.

WSM is making a straightforward value stock play, and like he said if you're afraid of a second surge this is a good hedge against that. You're going to have to give a reason for berating WSM, not a generic "WE HATE THE STOCK."

    1
  3123.  @asimqazi1943  that's a bunch of vague nonsense and a few baseless assertions. There's no shortage of corporate frauds to choose from in China like China VoIO Digital, China Finance Online, Terra Nostra Resources, and whoever it was that was making fake baby formula. A good way to put it is Chinese stock markets exist for the market to make money, not you.

  3124.  @dABiGfATLol  what does that have to do with anything?
    1
  3125.  @dABiGfATLol  that's not how stock markets work at all as market caps do not equal dollars invested and any total market ETF will correspond to GDP growth over the long term. You seem to think the whole stock market is a pump and dump.
    1
  3126.  @dABiGfATLol  If currency supply was fixed, then prices would go up with GDP as there are more people earning more profits but dividing up the same amount of bills.

  3134. Wait, that thing about Chinese companies buying ARM blueprints makes more sense than you realize. Most of those ventures were scams to get subsidies and the rest lacked the funds to buy a lithography machine. I'll wager most of those conmen bought ARM blueprints in order to pass them as their own in order to collect subsidies.

  3215. It's a scam. He straight up lied about the Feds when the official numbers didn't line up with his predictions. Since he's recommending gold while selling it, that makes his enterprise quite fraudulent. I guess the only reason he hasn't been arrested is that lots of people will buy books rambling on about this, but few if any will buy gold based on that info.

  3224.  @darklight6921  even if that were true, why would that send gas prices higher? And the only sure things in war are fire and death. Also, how could you possibly place a timeline on this junk when at the moment all major offensives are stalled and there have only been localized actions for months? Also, most of those involved are only half heartedly fighting, including Russia and Galicia, and many states have little more than harsh words to contribute.

Combine that with how there are 542 Federal elected offices, and it shouldn't surprise you there are no known scandals to speak of yet (only imagined scandals). Of course, Murphy's Law says inevitably some politician will abuse his post for stock manipulation, but don't think you can just legislate that problem out of existence. And when that day comes it will probably be some straightforward scam, like introducing legislation that will impose fines on gun manufacturers when their guns are misused while having an undisclosed short position. Or ensuring some massive contract goes to a company you have an undisclosed swap position on.

    1
  3516.  @strangelylookingperson  You googled cossacks just now and got the common wrong answer. Cossacks entered the European imagination due to Russian settlers in the Ukraine back when it was still part of Poland. The Ukrainian and Russian are so close together that they may be considered dialects of the sea language. In this case, the cyrilic 3 makes the z sound, so it's the difference between Cos-sack and Coz-zack. They are older than that, though, referring to Russians going native in the east rather than the west.

Also, a lot of currencies are pegged to the dollar, other countries have dollars traded on the streets as much as their own currencies, other countries (like Italy and China) set their inflation a little above the dollar to encourage exports abroad. What you really want is a currency that is stable, as in not doing anything that the central bank did not announce would happen well in advance.

  3550. Effective summary of Chinese education. But I will add that Chinese high schools do a lot of the same things that boot camps do. That dehumanizing meyhem plus a heavy reliance on standardized tests plus tight schedules and huge classes means the easiest way to succeed is to cheat. And everyone in these schools are seeking success rather than learning. China can't compete because they're overly competitive.

  3561. India is loaded with scams, it shouldn't surprise anyone the elites are no different.

  3562.  @MsKelvin99  I personally evaded two scams, one on Craiglist and one on the phone, and I live in rural America. Many entire call centers dedicated to scams have been found in India. That is to say nothing of contract employment scams, where most workers are brought in as independent contractors with much of their pay being given at a bonus several years in the future, and of course they fire them rather than pay them. Likewise, many women from lower castes are tricked into getting sterilized, and there are conspiracy theories about "love Jihad" where Pakistan aims to conquer India by having Indian Muslims marry Hindi girls (I swear, that's actually happened). Rapes are generally unreported, because the victims are often arrested for prostitution. The list goes on, and on, AND ON, AND ON.

  3564. Sorry, but you're mistaken. High-Frequency Trading is legit and the Medallion Fund averaged 60% per year BEFORE fees with other HFT hedge funds coming below that. Quantum computers only exist experimentally as according to the scientists it's hard to get them to do stuff, hard to get the results, and gard to interpret the results. What you describe isn't even possible with spoofing (high tech market manipulation). The biggest known spoofer averaged less than 1% a day by using an algorithm that would send millions if fake orders in order to trick someone into taking an unfavorable price so he could instantly sell for a slightly better price.

  3565.  @sarahpeterson2702  don't predict the performance of a machine that probably won't exist in our lifetimes. Besides, there would be other powerful machines to compete with, so it wouldn't be instant riches.

  3579. Tesla's China experiece was cut short due to cartel behaviors from Chinese car makers. Apple was hyped up in the civilized world too and in the early days of the internet tales abounded of employees damaging company property to get the latest IPhone. But yes, the purely luxury items followed a similar trend to this brand as Chinese people borrowed money they couldn't repay and spent it all on luxury items they cared nothing for just to show off. One corrupt official said she got so many luxury items as gifts that she had a secret apartment full of things she dare not even use. Most of the gifts were unsolicited bribes that she was not allowed to say no to.

  3582. No... A ponzi scheme is "multi-layered marketing," and you mean to say scam. But it isn't that either as no one did this on purpose and no one is making off with the money.

  3583. Not always too lazy. Petty criminals refuse to do math and get angry when you say too expensive because they plan to beg, borrow, steal when bills come due. I know people that do this

  3609. India's indexes are heavily correlated to the S&P but lag behind the S&P. Find stocks in remote high-income nations unless you have a specific reason to think a place will rise or fall. The turdworld will always be sluggish.
