I don’t think the sources he uses for information let him know we still don’t have wide spread testing availability yet.
I know, but using what we have is all you can go by. You certainly haven't gotten a lot of sand in your undies over the last month.
Anyone following EAF? Had a monster day today after being beaten down the last month.
Up again today. Anyone following this?
Those stock buybacks were not truly investing in the business to grow the business. Those purchases were made to prop up share prices and then they gave big bonuses to CEO’s and shareholders. That is a terrible business practice.
And now those businesses, after a massive tax cut, want a bailout? If the government is going to bail them out then the government should get the portion of the business in shares that they are giving the company. The equity of the company can be put up against the loan of money given, to be paid back with interest. Don’t like the terms, then piss on them. But no bailout of just giving these greedy ass companies money. And CEO and executive pay will be limited. No more of that massive salary and bonus BS.
why?
weren't people claiming going under 1% was bad? now it's back up. honestly help me understand.
Buybacks are a way to return $ to shareholders, generally considered better than issuing dividends for various reasons. It is not a terrible business practice (generally). Agree it is NOT investing in the business.
I have no problem with the gvmt getting equity in exchange for cash. If this becomes a temporary event, the USA might even make a little $ in the market.
But with Uncle Sam throwing cash around like a drunken sailor, why wouldn't anybody ask for a chunk of it?
You were a supporter of these tax cuts. What did you think they were gonna do with their money?It has become a very bad way to run a business, especially when combined with management being paid so heavily in stock options. They started using the buybacks to manipulate their stock prices. The only real net buyers in the past 1.5 years were the buybacks.

I have to admit, "I'd rate myself a 10" was absolutely hilarious on every possible level.
Stupid question gets stupid answer.
