Every western political leader should listen to this commonsence spoken by this man if they have seen it before they should review it now at this time in our history.
There's already a model of how to make a co-operative work in the long term: The Mondragon Co-operatives. But a British co-operative probably has a bad case of not-invented-here syndrome.
About the current bank situation, I'm really concerned. I am worried about a lot more if a bank the size of SVB may fail. I have a friend who manages a fast-growing startup and was severely impacted by the bank run. I have taken more than $840k out of my bank. Since the FDIC only provides coverage up to $250K, an implosion could have negative consequences. presently want to invest in the stock market. Does anyone have any ideas on how I might proceed?
It seems like there's potential, but caution is warranted. hence I will advice you get yourself a financial advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points
I concur. Drawing from personal experience collaborating with an investment advisor, I presently manage a $1 million well-diversified portfolio that has seen remarkable growth. It's not solely about having the funds to invest in stocks; one must also possess knowledge, persistence, and the resilience to withstand market fluctuations.
The name "Inflation Reduction Act" is an act of absolute fraud. It is a nothing but a wild spending bill choked full of trendy keywords to reward political friends and punish political enemies. Solar power is a dead end technology. Any fool knows this. It is a yesterdays technology. Exactly zero dollars should be invested in solar power which the Chinese already own. The future of power is Fusion. Nothing else matters. The "Inflation Reduction Act" did nothing for inflation and buried the US in even greater unpayable debt.
If we were truly at a tipping point, where it’s a major emergency to turn this world around, then they would ban automobiles. Whether they were electric, hybrids, diesels, or gasoline. Oops, did I say that?
Love JL/Waitrose and wish they could keep the same employee owned policy yet share with the nation and allow shared ownership with the British public... 😍
As an American, I had never heard of this company. Based solely on the information provided here, it seems pretty obvious that the chairwoman they hired seemed to be a terrible decision. She had no experience in that industry or with that business model. Rather than trying to fit into the mold of the company she was leading, she tried to remold it into something she knew, to something that was completely antithetical. We can also talk about standards here. Within the past 2 decades. John Lewis endured the 2008 financial crisis, a global pandemic, Brexit, the rise of broadband internet and ecommerce along with the first generation born into it, and fierce competition in a low margin industry. It is completely absurd to believe that such a company should remain profitable year over year throughout all that. It's far more important that they weather the storm and have some savings to fall back into instead of relying on government handouts. Despite this, you talked about the company condescendingly and defended a bad executive because the owners refused to engage in the practice of wealth extraction and consolidation to facilitate larger scale wealth extraction.
ANC roots are very socialist. Most of their leaders during Apartheid were trained by Moscow and other communist regimes. So it's no surprise that ANC is basically a mafia cartel masquerading as political party. Comming from a former communist country I can definitely claim that socialism is one of the worst systems, because inevitably it leads to kleptocracy. Look at Russia now - completely kleptocratic state!!!
It's quite simple why rates are climbing with rising imports and falling exports, the FED is obviously to be blamed for banking crisis. Something will eventually break if they keep the quantitative tightening and higher interest rates. Is this really a good time to have some savings in stocks?
first austerity, then brexit, now widespread bank failures. .always do your own research & speak to a license advisor before thinking about putting your money into these crazy markets
Exactly, most youtubers said the market would be fine few months back, but it's been a major downturn. Luckily, since the rona-outbreak in 2020, I've avoided the drawback of trial and error by simply following professional guidance. I'm semi-retd and work only 7.5 hours weekly, with nearly $1m ROI after subsequent investments to date.
Finding financial advisors like Sonya. Lee Mitchell who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
I worked in M&S less than 10 years ago in their London HQ for about a year. Food and GM basically runs like two companies. GM is always the older uglier and less profitable cousin where internally even my manager proudly proclaims she doesn't wear M&S clothes even with the generous staff discount. The company culture is very public servant like (i worked in TFL before) where there are so many layers of people and very hierarchical and in some way very British proper was frustrating to work there. Food basically were carrying GM's loss as we can see foot traffic simply heads straight to food. The food segment IMHO is very different to Waitrose, M&S is definitely has a lot more ready made VS as a groceries store and JL doesn't make their products as much as M&S (GM and Food), this I guess give M&S the advantage to customise their products where JL needs to consult its suppliers where they also supply the end products to other retailers. At least with my observations, both companies have too many people working there for a very very long time, I remembered when i started they were celebrating a lady who worked at M&S for 50 yrs, where she started off as a "shop girl" and made her way to HQ, one way is nice people stay, but other way as a consultant you don't bring fresh ideas into the business you basically have people moving along to other bits of business almost repeating the same job as its predecessor, hence my interpretation the company feels like a government/public servant culture as is "job for life" you don't really need to really excel in your job, but just stay here as a cog to this corporate machine.
They need to advertise that they are employee owned and are trying to operate a fairer commercial model. I had no idea, i would 100% choose them over M&S now i know!!!
Reasearch should go on, but I would not bet on it as a solution to further energy problems. it also comes way to late to help with climate change. Their promisses sound a lot like the nuclear promisses of the 50s.
Do you think Brexit will ever happen after Boris ,"The traitor" caved in and followed his WEF GLOBALIST bosses plan for the takedown of the UK ? Will he and Blair EVER face true retribution for their crimes ?
When you work on something that only has the capacity to make you 5 dollars, it does not matter how much harder you work - the most you will make is 5 dollars.
People dont understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments dont match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that.
Having an investment advisor is the best way to go about the stock market right now. I was going solo, but it wasn't working. I've been in touch with an advisor for a while now, and just last year, I made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.
Yes and TSMC CEO has said we’re not at the limits of miniaturisation. “What comes after 1nm?” he said. "0.5 nm" and then "0.25”. “It has always been like that.” There is still some truth that advanced packaging is a response to the slowing down of chip development. In particular Dennard scaling meaning no higher clock frequencies meaning that you have to look at other ways to get performance
You can solve the labor shortage and aging population by raising the retirement age to 80 years old. Redefine old age at 80 as the new 65. This is the only way to keep UK, British-looking. There is another export besides financial services. U.K can export their soldiers for hire as way to increase GDP. For a price, the UK soldiers will fight other foreign wars. UK. can provide the man power to fight.
As a newbie that wants to invest, you must have these three things in mind 1. Have a long term mindset. 2. Be willing to take risk. 3. Be careful on money usage, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending. 4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with a financial advisor.
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Maria Davis) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
