    A shareholder with 9 shares screws Musk out of 55 Billion

    The judge's job is to rule in accordance with the law and established precedence. Show me another case where a shareholder vote has been overturned, based on vague allegations brought by what appears to be a sock puppet. (Someone can only buy nine shares but they can afford to sue? Really?)

    A shareholder with 9 shares screws Musk out of 55 Billion

    But the standard this ruling sets doesn't require any improprieties, just vague allegations of influence. The way the judge got their seat, they are obviously open to influence by the governor.

    A shareholder with 9 shares screws Musk out of 55 Billion

    Which is BS because the shareholders voted on it. This decision is literally telling the shareholders that they don't have the right to approve deals and that an unelected political appointee who is obviously beholden to the governor for their job can step in and void deals at will based on...

    A shareholder with 9 shares screws Musk out of 55 Billion

    Tell me what was published here that is false: https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2018/01/23/1298917/0/en/Tesla-Announces-New-Long-Term-Performance-Award-for-Elon-Musk.html

    A shareholder with 9 shares screws Musk out of 55 Billion

    The shareholders voted for it. Who the hell is this judge to insert herself in and void a deal approved by the majority of shareholders? Have you spent even 2 seconds thinking about what kind of precedent this sets? An non-elected political appointee can step in after the fact and completely...

    A shareholder with 9 shares screws Musk out of 55 Billion

    This just looks like more government retaliation against Musk. The rationale is somewhat ridiculous given that there was a shareholder vote. If it was just board members for I could understand, but avoiding an action passed by the shareholders is crazy. I'm not the world's biggest Musk fan...

    HSBC failed to protect $142 billion in deposits, receives bumper fine

    Obvious question a competent reporter should have asked: How may money in insurance did they save by mislabeling the funds? How does that compare to the fine?

    Asian Financial Crisis Part 2: China's Debt Bomb

    Seems to me that someone should try to define "Japanification" before they claim it will or will not happen. I would submit the the number or head of cattle are actually an irrelevant distraction. The key attributes of japanification are A collapse / socialization of the debt market...

    Short Sellers Take Charge

    The article reads like someone carrying water for the Chinese communist party. Look at the way it pulls in totally irrelevant shit like the ouster of the Harvard plagiarist. Those are the actions of someone who is ideologically motivated. Like most media these days they're just looking to push...

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    Most crypto today is based on public/private key pairs. Applied Cryptography is a good book to read regularly how cryptography works.

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    I've thought about that and it seems like good idea but there are so many scenarios to cover. It's too bad you can't simply hand an envelope to an attorney or safe deposit box, but the US is becoming a post rule of law society.

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    I've considered something like this for crypto keys but there's no real good solution. Either one or two people have a roadmap to steal your money, or you create an insanely complicated shame with many parties and fractional keys. The last thing I want is for my grieving family to have to...

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    Read the prospectus, but I would expect every blackrock fund to be its own LLC. If one folds, I would not expect any other fund or the parent company to cover the loss.

    Two Owners of Tony Luke’s Philadelphia Cheesesteak Restaurant Sentenced for Tax Fraud

    Says someone with zero credibility. Lemme guess... He's a secret Russian agent, the hunter laptop is disinformation, as are Hillary's emails, etc etc. https://bidenreport.com/#p=1 459 specific crimes with documentation.

    Zacks versus Bloomberg consensus estimates

    Seems like a "consensus" estimate would wipe out any edge from either. It would think you'd be better off looking at the individual estimators to see who has the best track record.

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    God the Bitcoin crowd is dense sometimes. Of course insurance is available for a price. The question is did they actually buy it and are the premiums so high as to cause rapid decay in the NAV. The fact that insurance companies exist and have lots of money is totally irrelevant. The question...

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    U Unfortunately this means giving your keys to some other third party. Even if you trust them, do you trust them not to get hacked for the next few decades?

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    What the hell does this have to do with anything? Either they buy insurance or they don't. Go read some prospectus and find out if they actually buy it. What a moronic viewpoint. Sure they have been major ransomware incidents involving Bitcoin as the payment all over the world, but no one...

    which Bitcoin ETF does not hold real BTC?

    I would carefully read the prospectus. Even if some fund is supposed to cover the loss, unless they have an insurance policy where is that money coming from? Last one I looked at said things like: If we get sued we're selling some of the Bitcoins from the trust to cover the cost. Someone might...
