You are a gambler.

If you listed the ticker, the exact option you bought and the date you bought and sold the option this question could be answered in 10 seconds.

He bought back in in 2015 or 2016 after there was a wave of consolidation that curtailed capacity.

Well. He might be selling to be less than 10percent for some regulatory reason (like if a bailout will affect owners >10percent or something), or he’s selling out which is a bad sign because typically they would be buying at today’s price for cashflow in 2024.

The governor of Georgia will cite this study three months from now.

Yeah. And after they announced it, they’ve been tweaking it as they find loopholes.

Approval process hasn’t been set up for for paycheck protection plan. But I suspect approval process will be easy. It’s a pretty smart program.

In my current seat now is A LOT scarier than in my seat back then when the Great Recession felt more like a video game.

in fact in 2008, they had to fast track charters to Goldman and Morgan Stanley so that they could borrow from the Fed window.

I don’t know how they are approved as the SBA hasn’t started doing approvals and banks aren’t sure how to process the applications. Applications came out yesterday. Unless you are talking about the disaster loans: the first 10k is automatic, but the rest requires a review and it’s unclear when...

Same guys voted for trump because he supported gun rights, and then stopped buying guns: nearly bankrupting the industry.

The government stimulus programs are doing the right thing. To avoid lines at the unemployment office they are giving companies money to keep their people on their payrolls. It's pretty ingenious and while the plan details have been volatile over the last few days, its seems very well thought...
