The company is “worth” $4.3 Trillion dollars. Losing 4% of $4.3 trillion = losing $172 billion in one day.
Also, based on how everyone else did today, they probably would have made $172 billion if this story hadn’t come out today, therefore it’s like they lost $344 billion dollars in one day.
His buddies on the board (who own most of the company and therefore ate most of that loss) are probably pretty pissed at him right now, and also salivating at an opportunity to take some of his shares as punishment.
Ugh. Terminology written by the rich. Like a multi-billionaire being described as being “poorer” because their assets took a downturn yet they’re still a multi-billionaire. I despise the premise that predicted money not made is a “loss.”
No, you never had the value, so you can’t lose what you didn’t have. But businesses get to act like it and then it helps them ditch deferred tax assets if they get deemed unrecoverable. Isn’t that amazing?
True, but also you participate in an economy that legitimizes predicted money. I mean…. Even rental homes/apartment complexes can get loans before they open, based on predicted rent income.
Yeah but I don’t get to write off the loan or cancel part of it if I don’t make the money and the bank can come after my assets for failure to pay. This is not the same thing.
Write off the loan and cancel part of it? I’m not familiar with those mechanics, but nor did I think they were required for this system to be evil anyhow. What are you referring to?
I’ve heard that these people don’t pay back the loans. They borrow until they die, or other loopholes. The debt doesn’t vanish, though. The system is designed to remove the burden of an active debt if you can dance to its tune.
Also, I wasn’t saying you’re doing the same thing as them… so I’m not sure what “this” is when you say “this is not the same thing.”
I was just saying that you contribute to the economy, by working in it and paying into it. I’m not saying that you’re happy about. Just acknowledging that the economy which is very real for you DOES recognize the pretend forecasted money which you rejected. The economy legitimizes it already. So your issue is with the system, not necessarily with some rhetoric people use.
Yeah the bank will come after your assets, but really I’m just trying to show you the enemy here. It’s the fact that the system legitimizes the very thing which you call illegitimate.
Where do you think the money to buy everything else came from? Money doesn’t appear out of thin air. If Nvidia didn’t go down then it is unlikely others would have gone up.
