As a historian, that's not really true. For most of history, silver was the dominant Eurasian currency. Gold's value was measured in silver, like we measure it in dollars today & it was used mostly to cut wealth transport costs between major actors (institutions or high net worth individuals), being no more an everyday currency than it is now. Heck, Judas Iscariot was famously paid in 30 pieces of SILVER. AKA, the main international currency. In the American Revolutionary War, it was Spanish pesos (silver) that France and Spain gave us to prop up our war efforts. Because gold wasn't real money. Silver was. Gold has about 200 years of cultural precedent. Not 5,000. /u/garden_speech

Well it is a start to asking more questions. So basics of business which as you have one yourself, so I am sure you ask yourself these questions, so the questions are the same for the market. So at you $100 a month, how much does it cost my business to make that $100 a month, how long will it take me to recover the initial investment vs the net margin it takes to make each $100 dollars AKA ROI. How long will it take me to become profitable. Where is my demand of elasticity and where are my bottle necks. What is the cost of customer acquisition. The questions go on and on. The biggest problem is that people have no answer to any of these questions. More over we are told that we need to invest more money in so that we can sell a better product to you. The only ones who can answer the question of is it a bubble is companies running the AI companies and then the investors who decide if it is worth the investment and time frame. I am glad it is working out for you and that you are getting millions of revenue off a 100 dollars a month but that is ultimately only 100 dollars in revenue to an AI company. The millions you stand to make goes into your pocket not the AI company pockets. The bigger question would be how much more would you pay to continue to generate the money for your business and how many companies are like yours and how can AI companies exploit them to make their investment back.

Yea, they bought the spectrum's rights, AKA leased it. It is for usage in Canada and the USA, yes, like I mentioned. FCC approval is imminent, Brendan Carr is on our side. Stop trying to correct me on things I got right. > Oh and they need new chips in phones to use it AND block 3 satellites, so it won't be useful for at least 2 years. New chips by next year, Apple and Google are both looking to get them on asap. B3 will take its time, yes, but in 2 years ASTS' manufacturing chain will already be running full steam at most likely more than double the speed it is these days, so no worries there. > This puts them essentially on the same playing field as Starlink who are doing something similar with S Band spectrum. Not at all. In 2 years Starlink might very well still not be launching V3 satellites and only if they have already fixed Starship issues. By then they may have already lost the NTN war simply by not being an existing alternative, while ASTS will have already completed 50% if not more of their constellation, providing as you mentioned, way better service overall than lousy SMS that don't get sent because of a couple of clouds... > I have done a LOT of DD, it's really ironic how AST bulls hear what I'm saying and automatically assume I haven't done research because I'm not bullish.

> As you say, it has no comprehension of anything it is saying and is not processing inputs as anything other than a stimulus requiring matching output response according to parameters. That's not true at all. In fact, the research into how AIs work so far has shown that not to be the case. For example, image gen AIs do understand what they are generating. At least somewhat. They aren't just blinding spitting out pixels. They actually create a 3D representation of a scene and know that say a person is in front of a background. That's what we know so far. The fact is, we don't know how AIs work. The fact that they work as well as they do came as a surprise. That's why there is so much research into how AIs work. Since we don't know. Even the people who train these AIs freely admit they don't know how they work. > AI is so frequently wrong exactly because they have no comprehension of what they are saying and just make up whatever shit they think you want to hear + matches the random smattering of library data they hoovered up. LOL. As do humans. In fact, that in large way defines our humanity. It's called, "creativity" AKA our ability to bullshit. AI's have that magical ability too.

To give you some actual analysis instead of just shitting on the stock. IMO I don’t think PayPal is a good business to invest in bc they can consistently grow revenues by either 1) increasing user base OR 2) charging their current customers more. So lets look at those growth avenues, 1. Increasing user base - In the past 4 years (Mar 22’ to current) PayPal has increased their active accounts from 429 million users to 438 million users. An increase of just 2% over 4 years. Their user base is basically flat and they are having trouble attracting new users. BAD 2. Charging current customers more - The amount they take from each transaction is how they primarily make money AKA transaction fee. Over the past 4 years (Mar 22’ to current) they have DECREASED the transaction take rate from 1.9% to 1.6%. It may not seem like much but it’s actually 15% less in the amount of fees they take from each transaction. This means they have no pricing power and it’s the reason their gross margins have completely collapsed. SO when people say Apple Pay and Google Pay are eating their lunch, this is what they mean. They have had to lower fees to stay competitive. BAD The only way I would recommend people to invest in PayPal is if management finds a way to turn the business around. Them getting into banking seems interesting but I would want to see a couple quarters of growth reaccelerating before even thinking of investing in them.

iamwhiskerbiscuit

My opinion, Trump has activated the presidents working group on financial markets AKA plunge protection team (PPT). It's a mechanism for the US treasurer, the Fed, the SEC and commodities futures trading commission to put massive amounts of liquidity in the market and it's been suggested that they are likely colluding with large investment firms like JPM and Schwab to buy massive amounts of index futures to pump the market. It was created by Reagan to get the market out of a recession quickly. Their meetings and everything that transpires in them is kept confidential. And there is little we know about that they actually do. But like all things Trump has done, I'm confident he is pushing legal and ethical boundaries to elevate the market as much as possible. Trump has declared 11 national emergencys. It makes sense he would declare one when SPY dropped in April so he could pump the market all throughout his presidency through a shadowy and powerful market force unlike anything else. It also makes sense why JPM, for instance was predicting a bear market last January and after we got a 50/200 death cross in April, they continued to buy into a mechanical rally through all major SMAs up to new ATH and beyond despite a failing jobs market, near dot com level PE, mass bond selloffs causing black swan risk, trade wars and rising inflation from anti immigration legislation. A professional veteran trader I follow, Hari Seldon, who has a desk at JPM was asking. What the hell is JPM doing here? He pressed them for answers and more or less just got "we are cautiously buying into a mechanical rally". He said you guys are driving the market and they told him they weren't... Which is BS. Every legit trader knows that institutions drive the market and there is no way that the strongest market rally in history was driven by retail traders. They are pumping the market. And will likely continue to do so up until midterms.

Yikes, seems like you’ve already had enough of the EPC Kool Aid! When Durbin passed, the banks said free checking accounts would disappear, along with debit rewards. I still have a free checking account, and I also have debit rewards with a bank that is covered by Durbin and would be covered by CCCA. [Southwest](https://www.southwestdebit.com/) and [United](https://www.united.com/en/us/fly/products/united-debit-card.html) also just announced their own debit card rewards programs. A literal Google search would show that debit card rewards programs [still very much exist](https://www.stash.com/learn/debit-card-rewards/#9-best-debit-cards-for-rewards-in-2025). Indeed you are right, routing over more cost-effective (and more secure) networks would cause [one of the most profitable industries in the U.S. economy](https://www.venasolutions.com/blog/average-profit-margin-by-industry) to make slightly less on interchange because they would have to compete with other independent networks to process payments. But forcing V/MA to compete with other networks would not eliminate banks’ rewards programs – in 2022, U.S. banks paid out [$41.1 billion](https://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/documents/cfpb_consumer-credit-card-market-report_2023.pdf) in credit card rewards but collected [$125 billion](https://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/documents/cfpb_consumer-credit-card-market-report_2023.pdf) in credit card interest and fees from consumers as well as [$160 billion](https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R48216) in swipe fees from merchants. In 2024, the Nilson Report stated that FIs collected over $187 billion in interchange fees... seems to me there's a bit of wiggle room there. You also have identified the most significant problem with the broken U.S. payments system and why it needs reform – as you note, V and MA "set" (AKA centrally price-fix) interchange fees on behalf of the hundreds of banks that issues their cards, meaning that the interchange fees issuers charge are completely insulated from competitive market forces. This is why we have some of the highest interchange rates in the world. Europe, Canada and Australia have all capped interchange fees to a fraction of what we pay (and still have rewards to boot), but as a reminder, the CCCA would NOT cap anyone's fees :) Finally, CCCA allows the covered card issuer to choose the alternative card network they put onto the card, of which there are about a dozen (“Joe’s network or whatever” is not one – notable examples include Star, NYCE and Shazam). According to the Federal Reserve, these independent, PIN-based (or single message) networks have [far less fraud](https://www.kansascityfed.org/research/payments-system-research-briefings/card-not-present-fraud-rates-in-the-united-states-after-the-migration-to-chip-cards/) than V/MA (or dual message) debit transactions. And, when Durbin passed, it was the first time that real security innovations were introduced into the U.S. debit market – for instance, Europe (where V/MA definitely operate) [transitioned to EMV cards](https://www.bankinfosecurity.com/advice-for-us-how-to-speed-emv-rollout-a-8552) long before the U.S. This is because V/MA as dominant market forces in the U.S. had no incentive to provide greater security measures until they were forced to compete under Durbin. Capitalism and competition is supposed to breed innovation, right?? Hopefully some of these receipts help shed a bit of light on how the U.S. payments system actually works for you!

Explain it like you're 5?? Ok here's my shot Imagine you are in kindergarten again and everyone in class likes trading crayons. Most of the kids like bright colors to make rainbows or even brown, to draw bulls and bears - and other animals. but the weird kid in the corner, we will call him Mikey, like Mike saylor who runs mstr. Mikey likes to collect white crayons so he does trades - will trade his green crayon for two white crayons. He will even trade broken crayons for white crayons that are brand new - cause all the other kids are like - white crayons are stupid. You can't even see when you color with them. Next thing you know - Mikey has almost all the white crayons in the whole class and he can't do anything with them. But he's got a lot of them. But then one day sentiment changes! Its the day before Halloween and the teacher says ok kids today is the day before Halloween and we are going to draw your scariest ghost pictures and hang them up all around the room! But then - she hands out black construction paper - and tells everyone to use their white crayons to draw their ghost so it will be extra spooky. Suddenly everyone in the class is crying cause Mikey owns all the white crayons. And he starts offering trades - he says hey if you give me your whole box of crayons - i will give you half of one white crayon and you can color your picture. And every one wants to hang up a scary ghost picture - so of course they take the trade. Now everyone in the class has half of one crayon - but Mikey has all the other crayons and still owns half a box of white crayons. (And yes, Mikey lived happily ever after, and everyone was jealous of Mikey like he was the smartest person in the room with all the crayons) Except in this case - the green crayons represent dollars and the other colors represent shares and bonds and all other forms of currency. But the white ones represent Bitcoin. So far - people started saying what can we get for Bitcoin it's not worth THAT MUCH - and started shorting Mikey's company, MSTR, (AKA selling the shares short to buy other stocks and stuff) - but when Halloween comes and every need some white crayons (Bitcoin) Mikey will be a very very rich man and own everyone else's money.....plus a lot more than that because people have been selling shares short - so he will be getting 2 or 3 boxes of crayons back for one white one. Instead of just 1. TLDR - don't eat crayons, not even the white ones. They might be valuable one day.

> Nope. Sounds like you’re the one detached from reality. We’re hitting levels of unemployment not seen since COVID and even 2008. NOBODY is hiring and every company is trying to replace workers with “AI”. The dollar has lost ~15% of its value YTD. Unless your stocks have gone up over 15% since February *and* you’ve increased your net worth by +15% of its total, you’ve lost money this year. Travel to the US has cratered, meanwhile the basics we need to build stuff here (steel, copper, aluminum) have all seen double digit price increases several times this year.

Can you give it to me? Just joking... unless you're feeling generous. Whatever you do, don't go long or short on a crypto meme coin with 1,000,000,000x leverage. If you don't want to reinvest in real estate then buy more gold. It'll fluctuate a bit and you may lose a little in the short term but your money will be pretty safe unless somebody breaks into your home and steals it. Buy stocks that have steadily increased over time, like Apple or IBM or something that has performed well for decades. Avoid AI focused companies like Nvidia and Palantir because of the future potential AI bubble burst. Go for safety. If you want to go down the crypto path then go for bitcoin but I wouldn't go any further than that. If you want more risk but more reward then invest in the altcoins AKA shitcoins but be VERY careful... You could lose more money that way than you could with a heroin habit. Good luck.

1) They aren't losing to Waymo. Can you use Waymo in NYC? Nope. Can you use FSD in NYC? Yes. Watch the videos on YouTube. Plenty of them there. A buddy of mine has FSD in NYC and doesn't touch the steering wheel at all on his way to work all through Long Island from Queens. Waymo operates a geofenced model. That's why you see it pop up in local areas rather than as a blanket solution. What Tesla is doing is trying to get it to work in ALL areas, which is more more difficult to do initially than what Waymo is doing which is do it in small areas and then expand. That's why Waymo is losing billions of $ annually. Of course, you don't know that because you have $0 involved in any of this. Just your opinion. 2) Buffett is on record stating that he doesn't like taking risks. That's why he didn't invest in Amazon, Nvidia, Apple (earlier on), etc., You quoting Buffett just tells me you don't really know anything about Buffett. Buffett made his living on value investing when the days of crunching numbers on a calculator gave you a huge advantage because this wasn't widely accessible information. So he took advantage of this. Nowadays, all the metrics are given to you within a quick search. But the difference is he was a P/E guy. You can't compare P/E of tech companies because technology constantly changes. Billions of $ invested in R&D might not show up until 10 years down the line when it eventually scales and becomes massively profitable. AKA, Nvidia. Read his shareholder messages... you obviously didn't. Word for word, he said he doesn't understand tech. He's a bank, retail, energy, and manufacturing guy... legacy businesses.

People seem to have forgotten that the point of running a business IS TO MAKE A PROFIT. With capital costs of $150k per car 10,000 cars are going to cost $1.5bn. Lets generously assume Google puts up the cash so they don't need to borrow and pay interest. $1bn pa revenue from these cars at a \*very\* generous net margin of 20% means $200m profit per year, so it will take 7.5 years to pay off each car. But hire companies, for example, only keep their cars for 40-50k miles, which at Lyft style mileages will be about 1 year. Even if we assume Waymo has super powers and can keep their cars on road for 150k miles for zero extra cost that is still only 3 years, so it will take twice the car's lifetime to pay it off. They need to either cut the cost of the cars to $50k each or raise the fares to an average of $60 per ride \*just to break even\*. (And that's with a unrealistic margin assumption). It's yet another tech co doomed to be forever profitless until Google pulls the plug. AKA a marketing cost.

>JPM has in-house derivatives trading. That means the bank is on the hook for any losses racked up by its trading subsidiaries - the way Lehman Bros and Bear Sterns were in 2008 This is wrong, also with Lehman and Bear no brokerage customers had missing funds or lost any money besides legitimate investment losses AKA the investments they owned lost money. MF Global was the only one that SIPC needed to step in, and what MF Global did was fraud and illegal .

Problem is nobody knows what “war” is in the constitutional sense, as in what military action is beyond the President’s authority as Commander-in-Chief and over foreign policy that only Congress can authorize. We’ve never settled this question in the courts, and there’s tremendous tension between Congress and the President on a formal level (every president has maintained that at least parts of the War Powers Resolution are unconstitutional). Funny enough, the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel (AKA the Executive Branch’s internal supreme court/legal consigliere) once reasoned that the U.S. invasion/intervention in Grenada was definitely not a “war” in the constitutional sense because the U.S. was planning on going in with such overwhelming force that any conflict would be over in a jiffy. So according to that view, which I bet OLC will cite if asked to opine on the legality of invading Venezuela, it’s not a war as long as the President thinks we can so thoroughly invade a country that there’s no resistance.

So a random lady devoted her life to the Roman Catholic Church Her bishop connected her to the owner of the New Orlean Saints She ends up marrying him within 4 months He went schizo before he died and removed his kids from the will and passed them over to the wife Then she says when she dies the team will be sold and all proceeds will be given to causes she believes in AKA the Roman Catholic Church Damn women are weapons

I seriously hate the proliferation of forward P/E as a measure to value a company. Those that sling the term around use it as some concrete value rather than the possible future growth valuation methodology (AKA not real yet) that it is.

It also makes errors that sound like they aren't errors. By the nature of the machine, it's trying to make the thing that sounds the most right, and usually the thing that sounds the most right is that. AKA hallucinations.

the Fed say they want to increase their balance sheet. AKA, print money. call it whatever you want, but they want to increase their balance sheet by no longer letting things roll off without reinvesting the proceeds. they're going to be printing up t bills.

This statement suggest that all public jobs are redundant. That’s simply not true. I work on the public side in heavy civil construction AKA your roads and bridges. I can confidently say that I have saved the state in the millions of dollars by controlling the work and materials of the private contractors looking to squeeze out every penny from a job by cutting costs. I have not been paid millions in my career. This is the one thing I have a deep understanding of.

Yeah but even when transaction costs are low due to high liquidity they are NOT negligible. You’re hand waving away huge differences. Even in the world where you’re buying an option for 3.00 and the bid ask is 3.00-3.01. Which is the absolute best case scenario for liquidity, you still lose .3% PER DAY. Even in that best case scenario, even if you only reinvest weekly: .997^52 = 0.855. AKA in one year of weekly reinvesting you’d lose 15% of your principal to bid ask spread in the absolute best case scenario of razor thin bid ask spread. I know it seems small and irrelevant but it’s absolutely not and people seem to ignore it in subs like this. The metric that’s relevant is how often you are reinvesting your entire principal. So if you’re making small tweaks daily that’s probably fine, but the frequency that your buy and sell orders equal your portfolio value is what defines this loss equation. And you can claim hedge funds can’t use price data to extract more value from you, but they absolutely do use tactics like moving the bid/ask immediately if a retail investor puts a large-ish order in bc they know you’re not price sensitive. Which isn’t using your data and targeting you specifically, but is certainly profiling your buying/selling as retail and changing the price to get a few % more out of you. Also re: law of small #’s, you’re absolutely right on that. It’s actually something I explicitly thought about when placing my googl bet.
