@mattyglesias theory is that "private" holders don't have to worry about the extra volatility in the stock price that can come with more leverage. Tis an intrinsic part of the model as you know; early "PE" firms were rebranded leveraged buyout firms
English
I’m always torn between feeling that the private equity industry is unfairly maligned and feeling that if I’m going to defend them they ought to be paying me large sums of money first, because whoever they *are* paying to defend them isn’t doing a very good job.

@liberpopulus91 @mattyglesias This doesn’t make sense if you think about it
English
@mattyglesias “What do they do?”
“They buy companies, strip them down for parts for a quick juice in profits, then sell whatever skeleton is left.”

@elohimomega @Empty_America Where in the bible does it say this?
English
@Empty_America Justice is not sinful, neither is appreciation of the implementation of justice.
English
I think the best argument against capital punishment is that it causes a sinful titillation in the public.
We are all going to die extremely soon anyway, and as such the excecution can have little real importance either way, other than the impact it might have on our souls.

@AskYatharth @justalexoki Where’s the part where they couldn’t stop stuffing their fat faces with food?
English
@justalexoki isn't it… all true?
1. unhealthier food environment (environmental)
2. lower willpower or conscientiousness (cultural)
3. less forgiving body types (genetic)
4. harmonal dysfunction (medical)
all of these seem obviously real and explain obesity prevalence & heterogeneity

@chrisderose @JayShams Their rate is nowhere near $800 an hour
English
@JayShams If 10 attorneys with a blended rate of $800 an hour billed 3,000 hours over 18 months for a case that never went to trial you’d be at $24 million. I don’t buy it.

Page Six reports that Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni spent a combined $60 million to sue and countersue one another, which is more than twice the budget of "This Ends With Us."

@not_conjecture @CameronCorduroy We’re way past this; speak like it
English
@CameronCorduroy At the very least it provides ample evidence that Republican anger and arguments against the Virginia amendment are not done in good faith (as if you should need more evidence at this point though).
English
genuinely crazy how much more of a fuss the Virginia redistricting vote got compared to Florida ignoring the state constitution or Louisiana literally suspending elections
the incentives here are completely FUBAR
English
@mattyglesias You could say this is true in all 4 of the major sports in USA
English
I’m as prone to nostalgia as anyone but it’s crazy how much better at basically everything NBA players are today than they were 30 years ago.

@jamiequint @Chase Let’s not forget that now you can’t get in to any Delta lounge with any card or pass or status on an economy ticket.

Finally cancelled my Chase Sapphire Reserve because @Chase turned getting $795 of value out of the annual fee into a part-time job.

Ken Griffin at Milken:
“What the mayor of New York has made clear to my partners, and principally my New York partners, is that we need to double down on our bet in Miami"
Wall Street Rollup@WallStRollup
Ken Griffin has spoken out after the callout from Zohran: The fallout? He's doubling down on Miami. At Milken, the Hedge Fund CEO stated the following: "We went to Miami and revised our building plan to make it a bigger office building" “What the mayor of New York has made clear to my partners, and principally my New York partners, is that we need to double down on our bet in Miami" “Looking at what Mamdani did to me and more broadly is doing to the city of New York is triggering the trauma I went through in Chicago”

@_k_3424 @MikeVorkunov Fuck james doland but he’s a very competent owner operator of MSG, radio city, and the sphere
English
@MikeVorkunov The Donald trump of NBA owners. Has no actual clue how business works and what real business terms mean
English
James Dolan asked about SG&A costs on the Sphere Co. earnings call and he admitted he couldn't help himself.
"Boy, I'm really tempted to crack a joke here. So I guess I will. So SG&A is a great basketball player. And when we get to the finals, I'm sure we're going to beat them."

76ers head coach Nick Nurse is away from the team to attend the funeral services for his brother, Steve, who died unexpectedly last week, per The Inquirer and The Athletic.
Nurse left New York following Philly’s Game 1 loss to the Knicks Monday night to travel to Ankeny, Iowa, for the services and expects to rejoin the Sixers in New York later on Tuesday.

On choosing between NYC and Florida following Citadel's Chicago exodus, Ken Griffin said its "unquestionably true that we made the right choice" in choosing Florida
He also says Mamdani's antics have made it clear that he and Citadel need to "double down" on Miami

@jmkettle If you’re going to post something like this include the review, otherwise what’s the point? There is no context.

Giving a restaurant a three star review is illegal in Germany.

@jaketropolis @justsettledownn @LinkofSunshine So you don’t actually care about having a neighborhood. You care about having cheap alcohol
English
@justsettledownn @LinkofSunshine It's a little too nice is my issue. I like visiting there but there's no dives in River North. I've got an amazing dive with $5 rum&cokes basically next door.

You can get a full one bedroom in the Marina Towers with a balcony outlooking the River Walk for less than basically any shitty studio in Downtown Manhattan lol

Name me a better balcony in the U.S. than the Marina Towers Condos in Chicago
