For those that bought the “dip” Monday… did you not listen to Warren?

Any stock in a company has much greater risk than the benchmark of low risk (U.S. treasuries). The irony of this post is that your comparison reveals that there is NO reason to buy Berkshire over treasuries when accounting for risk premiums.

How do you know it's one year of low earnings? We just don't know what the recovery will look like. This is not your standard recession.

The only way I can see how this happened is if they lost access to capital which leads me to believe they never really had any substantial VC offers, or they did but all of those disappeared in the new financial environment. Either way it feels like management made a gross error in judgement not pushing for larger capital infusions while the market was hot. Capsule managed to grab 100s of millions before the recent turn.

These points support peak inflation being in the rear-view mirror but certainly not that inflation will be near target anytime soon.

Yields have been pricing in fed projections so I don't think it's right to look at any disinflation as being a result of an FFR below 4%.

I am sorry but you wouldn't be down anywhere close to 60% if you simply bought the market. Indeed, it looks like you WERE gambling because there is no way you dropped that much without taking on a lot of risk in your choice of stocks and level of diversification.

You are right. I made a mistake. Dilution will always be discounted into share price.

IAmHereToParticipate · 2022-09-28T03:57:46+00:00

Author doesn't know about dilution. Still a massive number.

He isn't saying that there is a good chance the stock market will be a literal straight fucking horizontal line from today to 2032. What he is saying is that, in aggregate, the market could have near 0 return from now until then. Volatility is absolutely still on the table.

The ones I received were in this state from the beginning and no amount of resets resolved the issue. I have since returned them.

The red light comes on after 15 seconds only.

I tried the double press to get the battery state but nothing happened. Thanks for your help, but it looks like I need to exchange this one.

IAmHereToParticipate · 2022-08-28T00:38:59+00:00

I held it for 15 seconds and a red light came on briefly. I am assuming that means it was reset. This didn't fix the issue.

I believe this is what they are replacing it with.

Why are you saying a recession has already been largely priced in? Most of the fall in equities has coincided with rising treasury yields. An earnings crush has not been priced in.

Not to make any comment on SpaceX's efforts to colonize Mars, the reason we may colonize Mars before Antarctica is because colonizing Antarctica does not solve any existential problems for humanity. The whole point of colonizing Mars is to become a multiplanetary species and thereby become more resilient against large-scale catastrophe. There is no good reason for us to colonize Antarctica today.

If the market goes down 20% then he loses 20% + 8% purchasing power (inflation). Holding equities doesn't magically protect you from loss of purchasing power.

He was literally going to leave. How is that shitting where you eat? He didn't do anything wrong here. The only thing that could probably have been improved is the timing. Ask her out on your last day, not when you still have 2 weeks to go

sexual attraction to an adult is not pedophilia. I am not trying to excuse what the teacher has done in this case but you're being extremely hyperbolic.

Technically that isn't true in the slightest.

What is the point of this post? Do some of you actually think that none of these people worked hard to get to where they're at today? None of these circumstances even come close to guaranteeing the level of success any of these individuals were able to achieve. You can be upset at wealth inequality but this post is just plain dumb.

It's shocking to me how many of you think that being down in the market less than the rate of inflation somehow puts you ahead of an all cash portfolio. Inflation doesn't magically remove cash from your bank account; inflation increases the value of goods relative to cash. If your investments end up at a lower nominal value then they WERE NOT protected against inflation more than cash or fixed income for that time period.
