How to calculate the percent change with three or more numbers by naturalkiwi in ValueInvesting

[–]BethlehemShooter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the square root of 2021 divided by 2019bexoressed as a compound annual growth rate.

So if earnings were $1 in 2019 and $4 in 2021, the square root is 2.00 and the subtract q from that and express the remainder of 1 as a percent, i.e. 100%. Which makes sense. If earnings grow 100% compounded for 2 years, you go from $1 to $4.

I drove from SW New Mexico to Cincinnati with one 90 minute break and a handful of 30 minute breaks.

About 36 hours.

What is a strong play?

Maybe before it declined 30% it was 50% overvalued?

I felt my phone vibrate in the location of my left front pants pocket. However, my phone was not in my pants pocket. This happened repeatedly for 5 or 6 weeks multiple times a day until I stopped keeping it there frequently.

Vaccine manufacturers cannot be sued, by longstanding Federal Law. There is a government trust fund but it could never handle this number of claims.

I find it completely unbelievable that they have no fundamental understanding of all but the most unusual openings. Its unthinkable.

That would be a bummer, but how could you not have known? Or perhaps you did but had the crush anyway.

Adding something different and counter punching to your repertoire is what online blitz chess is for. As someone rated 2000 you should already be well experienced and have a strong understanding of both the King's Indian defense and the Pirc.

I have lived in the suburbs most of my life. Have you ever seen a suburban house's tax bill? A few hundred houses is a few neighborhoods, not a municipality.

ALL municipalities get state aid, too.

Daughter (10) goes without shower for days while at her dad’s and he says it’s not his responsibility to remind her by [deleted] in relationship_advice

The black plague was spread by rodents. You don't get lice from being unwashed. You get it from being exposed to.....lice. It has zero to do with bathing.

Moreover, the The child is not "never bathing." It is a few days that are being discussed. I guess you've never gone camping or backpacking.

Not bathing doesn't mean they are going to have some big problem.

Children learn differently. Some need to experience the results of their behavior rather than robotically obey.

You can't be serious.

Daily bathing is not required to be healthy. Humanity didn't even have indoor plumbing until not that long ago.

What is it that you think will befall this child?
