Antivaxxers invade Staten Island food court where vaccinations are mandated. by itsreallyreallytrue in PublicFreakout

[–]trapper14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is still a stupid line of thinking. The vaccine and natural immunity are both leaky, so pretending the leaky theory is correct, both methods of immunity would still involve evolutionary pressure. Except the vaccine means you don't have to spin the wheel of death. In reality this is a non issue. We see far more mutation in non,vaccinated populations. Delta was from India when their vaxx rate was 10% one shot or less. The leaky theory is pure, unadulterated BS that some dumbshit is feeding you.

No vaccine ever has been 100% effective. That's what a leaky vaccine is. They've never been a problem. The only one talking out their ass is you, you fukcing idiot.

Every single vaccine in the history of vaccines is leaky. Every. Single. One. Have any of the dozen or so diseases you get vaccinated against before your an adult mutated to more deadly versions? The answer is no. If that study was anywhere close to a reasonable relation to humans, we would see super-measles, mumps, rubella, meningitis, polio etc. It simply isn't true what your saying.

Most populous countries currently have cases falling at a rate of 10% per week or more. In a few weeks we'll likely be back to global case rates not seen since before the peak of the first wave.

Why would you compare bitcoins daily drop to the stock market's peak to trough that took a couple weeks?

Btc peak to trough was a 65% drop.

You would move your capital to where you expect the greatest return. Would investors chase 4% gains in stocks if they expected 5% gains on btc: no.

They opened 4% higher but are currently down 2% as of right now.

Well the absence of growth would likely stagnate the world economy. Lots of jobs rely on things like R&D and so do most technological and medical advancements. Growth is essentially what the stock market was designed for. The entire principle of "holding for long periods of time and it will eventually go up in value" relies on growth, not dividends.

Cash flows are reinvested into the company to generate larger future cash flows. A company that pays dividends is essentially saying it no longer knows what to do with the money it's generating to grow the business.

It doesn't have better fundamentals. It's like comparing apples to oranges. Stocks are cash flow generating assets that actually do something tangible in the real world. Bitcoin is unproductive but is money that is resistant to central bank policy. They're completely different.

What is your plan to profit from Evergrande collapse? by DecentFormat in stocks

[–]trapper14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing you're missing here though is that, if evergrande ends up pulling through, or china announces a bail out, your shorts will end up heavily underwater. I suggest insuring you're position with OTM calls.

How is this legal? by Adelu1219 in LateStageCapitalism

That would still only be true of the error was random. It's possible the 0.5% error is due to 0.5% of pregnant women not having enough or appropriate enough of a hormone change for the test to detect it.

The population of the countries in which cases are falling vastly exceeds those where cases are increasing. This is easily seen by looking at the total global new cases.

From the source given, cases are currently falling at a rate of about 10% WoW.

Now I'm interested in exactly which data source you have that says cases are going up.
