Nancy Pelosi just bought $500k worth of MS stock so I think it’s safe to say this merger will make it past this FTC hurdle.

I see $1 million in MS, and $500k in Apple.  

Don't think the merger will affect MS's stock that much, Activision's stock on the other hand, will lead to a pretty quick payout.

I'm not sure if it means anything though other than Microsoft stock is amazing, Lol.

I don't think ABK would even noticeably move Microsoft stock one way or another, it would have made more sense if she purchased ABK stock.

Yeah, I don't think her buying MS stock means much either. ABK probably won't move the needle much on Microsoft's own stock price. ABK is what she should have bought if she was specifically buying because of the trial seemingly not going in the FTC's favor. 





Hopefully Frostpunk 2 will launch on consoles as well. Day one purchase, game pass or not.

Well, I would not call that insider trading tho :) This is really public knowledge! Everyone can listen to the hearing and draw the same conclusion :)

This is, but I meant in general lol. They're not subtle about it either

Btw, you and Shika having similar avatars on top of each other confused the hell out of me lol

I was the first, therefore I have the right to claim it as mine!

The other one is just a copycat!



I'm sensing an upcoming disturbance in the markets. I sold off everything I had last week, and gonna leave it on the sideline for a bit. I know you shouldn't buy and sell on gut feelings, but at least I'll have a few peaceful nights.

you sold off everything related to MS/ABKS, or everything everything? lol

Selling off all your stock all at once is uhm...quite a move

Yep, everything I had invested with my Edwards Jones account (it wasn't too much).  I didn't have any 401's or IRA's, it was just mutuals and yes my MS/ABKS and Sony stocks.  I only had about $130,000 invested in and sold at $158,000.  I had it for about 2 1/2 years.  I'm still sitting on a bunch of precious metals, some real estate, and a 1.6 million dollar business.  I've been trying to sell my business, and the guy I had looking at it and studying the numbers since February ended up backing out 2 weeks ago.  I've since decided to keep it in the family and just paid (today actually) to move my son and his fiancé over from 200 miles away to get them trained to run and operate it.  I was planning a full retirement, but it looks like it's going to be a semi-retirement for a little bit.

I did feel instantly relieved after selling the stocks.

Time for the big boss!
