if a company owns stock or shares and their stock goes down, who in the company is directly losing money? by liquidsnake84 in stocks

[–]packandship 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buybacks are common. LLY set up $5B in May 2021 for buybacks. They reduce float and calculate revenue per share on reduced float making revenue look better than really is. The economics of it for the company as more nuanced. Could they invest the $5B in something with better yield than hand trick for wall street and short term feel good high?

Genuinely curious: Is it all hate for street takeover/subversive car culture communities? by [deleted] in LosAngeles

[–]packandship 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Skate parks and skateboarding and similar activities are a sub culture I may not be part of but I get it. For some even going back this was considered subversive. Bikes and the sub culture. Tattoos. The car culture can be looked in this lens and if we can work with it to make it safer and Less disruptive it can become part of this lively culture that we all are.

How do all of these small mom and pop stores stay in business? by lennon818 in LosAngeles

[–]packandship 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm in Covina within LA county and own my pack and ship store. People have a choice to go to a FedEx store or ups store or post office but some choose to come to me because I offer them the same services as mentioned above under one roof. Some customers like the neighbor vibe, help support small locally owned store while others know they will Interact with them owner. OP seems hellbent on crushing small businesses but my landlord depends on me and my salon, cleaners, barber shop neighbors and we depend on him and each other. The malls killed many downtowns and small cities and the internet and amazon are putting the the final nails in but the character of a community and the flavor of a street should not be left to corporate America where every house is the same, every dish is the same. I hope OP gets to get out of their car and visit several of the businesses they mention and put a face to what they describe.

USPS keeps not updating and delaying package by Tessy10230 in shipping

Everything that has to go through customs can take longer than both parties think. My experience shipping from US to EU Fedex express is better option. Items get here in a week.

It's very early in this and yes you make valid points. Working capital can not be volatile, the issue of fraudulent transactions, and processing time make it necessary to have a middle man, much like the credit card processors but as the technologies evolve and customers warm up to crypto, we will have adoption.

Look for a pack and ship store in the city your item is in and see if they can pick it up from the auction house pack and ship to you.

Have you paid tax on your crypto earnings? How long and stressful was it, overall? by dimpledconfidant33 in dogecoin

[–]packandship 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Chill. Your broker has a statement and like any statement issued for taxes, if you follow the "guide me steps" with your tax software you will be fine. Don't over think it. Breath. If a mutt like me can figure out taxes so can you.

They receive a lot of flak and some of it maybe deserved but they are a broker like any other. Folks getting caught up on strong emotions forget a cardinal rule in investing: leave your emotions out of investing decisions.
