    It's all about power and dominance for big companies in my opinion. They must see it as a way to get more of those things, maybe exclusive advertising or something.

    They basically have to do stuff like this to stay afloat. I think i've mentioned it before as one of the things that makes me skeptical about buying such big companies. They lobby FOR more taxes and regulations and things like that to make it easier to take out competition. Tons of new rules to follow (or a straight up ban in this case) spells doom for smaller companies with maybe an accountant or two; stuff like that is a minor speed bump for a company like walmart that probably has a building or two of accountants and lawyers. Similar with Amazon, they got big by exploiting a loophole extremely well but it being closed is the reason you now see them getting into any and every business because they need to steamroll everything beneath them to stay where they're at. Its makes them sort of fragile because businesses that big are not even remotely sustainable on their own. As soon as they can't use pollyticking in their favor to wash competition they're doomed

    The crazy thing is I'm probably going for XOM soon..I just haaaaaaate what big oil is doing with plastics. Massive lobbying to make people believe the recycle symbol means it's getting recycled. Umm..it's not.. It's like cigarettes...even if you hate what they are doing there's $$ to be made...

    NVDA is trying to push to a new ATH. It's finally got volume back. Average volume is 11M or so. The last week it's been less then 7M. In the first 40 minutes this morning it's already 2.1M. It's gonna be a fun Friday.

    Glad you guys made some coin. I was expecting a upside move but I wasn't expecting that much. It's still got room to run too.

    If you guys don't mind just buy a beer for @TreeFortRichard I still feel bad I got him into LIACF at an ATH. Then it retracted big time. I also forget to tell him I had a 8% trailing stop on that trade. I limited my loss. lol

    I wish Webull let me put a trailing stop on derivatives. I just set a limit sell instead.
    I'm learning to live with leaving donuts on the table as long as I walk away with donuts. :rofl:
