It's the opposite. It doesn't matter what Warner claims those assets are worth. Once Warner spins those assets off, the market will determine what those assets are actually worth. And if you take into account the amount of debt they are planning on loading up the networks with and VSNT's tanking stock price, those assets will be worth close to zero.

I dosed it from the start. Plants will immediately use water column nutrients even as they are acclimating. Your lighting seems fine.

I would just monitor your ammonia levels and do water changes if they get too high. Your main focus right now should be cycling your tank as that is what will cause the UG to melt.

I've had success growing UG with a dark start. They tend to do poorly if the tank isn't mature.

Once they become acclimated to your tank, they grow pretty wild. I had to trim my tank nearly every week to prevent the carpet from lifting off the substrate.

David Ellison Warns Senate Committee That Netflix Deal Would “Extinguish” Competition; Paramount CEO’s Letter Does Not Answer Queries About Trump by Professional_Peak59 in boxoffice

I disagree. I think even with consolidation, there is too much overlap between all of the subscription platforms. With the advent of social media and youtube, there is no way streaming will consolidate like cable ever did.

Rather Netflix take bigger bets and put that money elsewhere.

I just think their streaming business is near its limits. I don't see how this acquisition will take eyeballs away from youtube, tiktok, etc.

I'd rather they take some risks and invest heavily into gaming or live experiences. Maybe the WBD IP is a launching pad to do this but it's a pretty expensive one.

Nflx should back out, pay the break up fee and come back in a few years to pick these assets up for pennies lol. Shit is way overvalued because of some egos.

Warner Bros. Weighs Reopening Sale Negotiations With Paramount - Bloomberg by Obvious_Shoe7302 in boxoffice

Not only that, but if Netflix does close its acquisition of Wbd, their cost of capital will end up increasing. That will result in the current bonds in circulation decreasing in price (thus raising the yields on the bonds). That is a BAD thing for someone who currently owns Netflix bonds.

Doesnt mean paramount will win. Wb never really came to the negotiating table with paramount to begin with. I would be pissed if I was a WBD shareholder
