#Research #Investing #Regulations

What's the point of a #NeighborhoodBattery ? [view #ClimateSolutions 002 #Neighborhood Battery.]
1st of all: electrify in stead of carbonate. 😜
2nd: reduction of the strain on the general grid (less need of grid expantion)
But..
also #ScaleReduction of the grid. We've become dependent of, and 've gotten used to, monopolized energy producers. Large scale production using fossil fuels. Things have changed, nowadays consumers have become producers using solar. Scale reduction means independency.
Let me be clear: We still need the grid in case of shortages or emergencies. We need to get used to hybrid energy or multi grid energy.

What is needed for a grand scaling of the #NeighborhoodBattery ?
We cannot use the Lithium-Ion tech. Or other precious metal combinations.
We need a better tech and research for better batteries. Some smart researchers knew this years ago and one of the valid options is...
the Iron-Air battery.

"Cheap, multi-day grid energy. FINALLY!"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXouVvzj5nQ

What can/should governments do to implement the #NeighborhoodBattery ?
There's no real need of subsidizing, the prospects on profit should be enough for investors provided the policies change.
Governments (local and national) should change and make #regulations .
Governments (local and national) should change and make #policy . No longer favoring the monopolist energy producers.

The Full Reset · Collab Fund https://collabfund.com/blog/the-full-reset/

Following the release of Digital World Acquisition Corp's amended registration statement and proxy, major media outlets seized upon Donald Trump’s media company (TMTG) losses exposed in the SEC filing. But wait, there's more!

The filing sets a deadline of tomorrow, November 21, 2023, for either the DW SPAC or TMTG to back out of the merger.

If neither of the parties exercises their right to cancel the deal, all signs point to a total failure. The 300+ page registration statement tells an epic tale of incompetence and betrayal, outlines the near-impossible hurdles the merger faces, and details a sprawling list of risks no investor in their right mind would take.

Sandwiched between the comic relief of absurd Trumpian bravado, finger-pointing, throwings under the bus, and a mountain of financial auditors’ red flags, I found an acquisition plan long past its consummation deadline, regulatory roadblocks, and a list of conditions necessary to close the deal that can only be met if waived by the parties involved.

Basically, this proposed deal is a shitshow on the level you would expect from a cohort that would dare to hook their financial wagon to master of fraud and veteran bankruptcy pro Donald Trump.

Can't wait to find if tomorrow comes and goes without a major announcement about the merger.

Also, I have a strong financial background too, including an NYSE analyst certification, and have a really good idea for a low-beta (low volatility) mutual fund with above-average returns (alpha), better than anything that’s currently available at the retail level, I think. If I could get $20 million invested I’d charge a 1% fee and work for free for a couple years just to get it off the ground, with the fee declining to Vanguard-like levels as assets grow. #investing #finance

"Fidelity, which contributed over $300 million to Elon Musk's $44 billion takeover, decreased the value of its investment by nearly 65% over the first eleven months."

#News #ElonMusk #x #Fidelity #Twitter #investing

https://www.axios.com/2023/10/29/fidelity-twitter-x-value-elon-musk

In October 2021, Trump launched Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) and TruthSocial, along with an ambitious plan to build a media empire that he claimed would compete with the likes of Twitter, Facebook, and Netflix. To do this, he would need to raise some serious cash. Enter Digital World Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), a shell company to raise money and identify a merger target to take it public.

Fast forward to October 2023. Digital World is collapsing, and it’s taking Abu Dhabi-based ARC Global Capital LLC and other investors down with it. After Digital World initially raised $1 billion in private investments to merge with TMTG, it is now returning $533 million back to investors.

Shares of Digital World dropped to $15.54 on the news from a peak of $97 in March 2022. Digital World’s 2022 Annual Report, published April 26, 2023, reveals that ARC Global Capital owned 3.8% of Digital’s Class A common stock and 76.4% of Class B common stock, amounting to 14.8% of the SPAC’s total shares outstanding.

According to ARC Global’s website, “Since its inception, ARC Global Investment Capital LLC has invested in transactions totaling in excess of $2bn in combined enterprise value achieving top quartile returns and no losses to date.” That’s probably gonna need an edit pretty soon.

Digital World still owes its independent accounting firm, Marcum LLP, $361,660 in fees incurred during 2021 and 2022.

Perhaps that’s why Marcum stated in its audit of Digital World’s finances that “the company cash and working capital as of December 31, 2022 are not sufficient to complete its planned activities for a reasonable period of time.” As of December 31, 2022, Digital World has accumulated a total stockholders’ deficit of almost $31 million.

Digital World originally set a deadline of September 2022 to merge with TMTG. However, the US Securities and Exchange Commission threw a wrench in those plans. Turns out, when you form a SPAC, you’re not supposed to have a predetermined acquisition target; the SPAC is supposed to seek potential acquisition targets rather than identify a target beforehand, as Digital World did. This, and many other legal missteps doomed the SPAC to multiple regulatory investigations.

The SEC settled its case in July 2023, ruling that Digital World violated the antifraud provisions of federal securities laws, and assessed an $18 million penalty.

Curiously, just before TMTG received subpoenas from the SEC and a New York grand jury, Trump resigned as board chairman, and Donald Trump Jr., and former Trump administration official Kash Patel resigned from TMTG’s board. Trump still owns 90% of TMTG.

In 2022, the Southern District of New York investigated TMTG for money laundering, after finding it received a $8 million in loans: $2 million from Paxum Bank, based in Dominica and chartered under the Offshore Banking Act No. 8 of 1996. Paxum is partially owned by a former Russian government official who now runs a maritime agency under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation. The other $6 million came from “ES Family Trust” which shared a director with Paxum.

Investors are now backing away, leaving Digital World with only $293 million – an amount that would be transferred to TMTG if the deal ever closes. That amount could dwindle as the potential for investors to request further redemptions remains.

Losers include not only Trump, who won’t be realizing his dream to build a media juggernaut, but also early investors, such as Georgia congressional representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, who invested between $15,001 and $50,000 in Digital World at $94.20 in 2022. Her losses based on current stock valuation of $15.54 amount to -84%. Hope it was worth it, Marge.

Count Devin Nunes among the losers as well. Devin Nunes (remember him?) vacated his congressional seat in favor of clinging to Trump’s disintegrating coattails as TMTG CEO. Nunes, despite representing California for nearly 20 years in Congress, is best known for losing his defamation lawsuit against a satirical Twitter account named Devin Nunes’ Cow. He can now add failed social media company CEO to his resume.

TruthSocial, Trump’s “Twitter alternative” social media platform has managed to garner only about 2 million monthly active users. For comparison, X (formerly known as Twitter) has about 245 million daily active users. Facebook has about 3 billion monthly active users. Even Mastodon and its larger group of interoperable servers known as “The Fediverse,” which is owned by no single individual or company, has 10.7 million registered users of which 1.5 million are daily active users.

So, it is safe to say that Truth Social and its parent TMTG can join a long list of Trump’s other business failures.

Marry, and you will regret it; don't marry, you will also regret it; marry or don't marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world's foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world's foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it... Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don't hang yourself, you'll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy.

Uh kinda glad I chose VT rather than lean on VOO, though not that the world is doing any better 😂 I just preferred not to bank on one country, even if most US firms are international, and VOO has historically outperformed VT.

Wonder if there's a Hong Kong ETF equivelant of VT? 🤔

The Federal Reserve raised interest rates again today, and markets tumbled.

Rising interest rates are one factor behind a sharp reduction in investors putting money into funds that stress sustainability and other non-economic factors.

A corporate finance expert from @ufresearch looks into what's going on with #ESG investing: https://theconversation.com/fed-rate-hikes-recession-fears-and-political-backlash-leave-esg-investors-at-a-crossroads-203639

As a person who spent his entire professional life in the tax business, i can attest to the below. The rich, not all, but a lot, think rules do not apply to them. And their money allows them to buy politicians who do their bidding. Like cutting the IRS budget and telling the poor and middle class it's for them!
Think the Panama Papers! All those off shore accounts!!

How should Indigenous people participate in the clean energy transition?

1. Energy is an essential service. We should all have the same level of access to affordable, reliable and clean power, no matter where we live in this country.

2. Indigenous participation needs to occur in the design, construction and operation of energy projects.

3. There must be free, prior and informed consent for projects on Indigenous lands.

That's First Nations Clean Energy Network Steering Group member Ruby Heard talking.

Sounds right!

I've been buying and selling cryptocurrency for years.

All the hate on cryptocurrency is from individuals who never owned any, sold out their holdings or have never been defrauded.

The pollution critics of cryptocurrency mining are entirely a joke and I believe likely sponsored by the oil industry.

Joseph Smith encouraged early Mormons to pool their resources. 200 years later, the LDS church has an investment portfolio estimated at $100 billion – and recently agreed to pay a $5 million fine in a settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for obscuring details of it.

My charts tell me we are retesting June 2022 lows in the US Markets. People seem to be freaking out over a rando bank failure but all the other bank stock value haven't noticed.

We will retest October 2022 lows later this year.

The last few years working on Minafi and researching #investing platforms ( https://minafi.com/invest ) made my taxes a mess.

Last year I closed a dozen accounts and reduced everything down to only a few accounts.

This seemed to work since it "only" took 4 hours to do my #taxes this year. 😅

"It is the wealthiest who benefit most. The losses can be used to erase an unlimited amount of investment gains. Someone like Ballmer can easily deploy $100 million in losses to cancel out a $100 million gain from selling some of his vast Microsoft holdings.

It’s a very different story when it comes to wages and other forms of income, of which only $3,000 can be offset."

Someone like Ballmer can easily deploy $100 million in losses to cancel out a $100 million gain from selling some of his vast Microsoft holdings. It’s a very different story when it comes to wages and other forms of income, of which only $3,000 can be offset. On average, only the top 0.001% of taxpayers made a majority of their income through investment gains in 2018, according to public IRS data.

Those gains, like many aspects of wealthy Americans’ tax returns, are usually the result of careful planning. Since, in the U.S. system, gains aren’t taxed until they’re sold, even the richest Americans can have years where they owe no tax at all.

Goldman’s ability to deliver tax losses to its clients won’t be significantly curtailed. That’s because over the past 25 years, investing has undergone a transformation that’s made the law against wash sales toothless. Improved computing, new financial products, cheaper trading costs and a shift away from picking stocks to passively tracking the broader market are the main ingredients of the change.

Asset managers have used these advances to forge loss-harvesting accounts that boast hundreds of billions of dollars in assets. What the law sought to prevent — generating a tax loss without a substantial change in the investment — is now commonplace.

The anti-ESG rhetoric is intensifying, but if you've been following me long enough, you'll know that:
1. #ESGInvesting is tied to value, not values.
2. You can't ban the consideration of risks from the markets.

Conservatives are talking about banning values-based choices through Impact Investing, Thematic Investing, Sustainability Investing, etc. Blanketly doing that firm by firm is a short-sighted strategy with financial implications for citizens, as we've seen in Texas already.

Jill Fisch is right, though. "Such a coordinated political attack on the finance industry may be without precedent."

If nothing else, Financial Services firms need to be doing two things:
🏷️ Ensuring financial product information is clear regarding its intentions, especially around investible products. It is well past time to capitalize on both #ESG and #Sustainability (not the same thing) by providing transparency and clarity.
📈 Pulling the data for hearings where they can show how conservative states benefit from this risk management already. I don't believe we'll see evidence that ESG is a growth wonderland, but there should be enough solid evidence that it is a fiduciary consideration. After all, ESG is material.

NEW ANALYSIS: The approval for the #UK's new Cumbria coal mine makes little sense.

The assumption the mine will meet demand from the steel industry runs counter to leading steel firms attempts to deploy new clean production technologies.

Little of the new coal will be used by UK steelmakers, who are making it clear they want government support to transition away from coal in order to remain competitive.

If the UK government wants to maintain a domestic primary steelmaking capacity, it will need to provide financial support to the major producers to transition, undermining the rationale for the mine’s approval.

It already seems clear that little of the coal from the new #Cumbria mine will be used by the UK steel industry.

But if the government moves to support the steel sector’s transition away from coal – as #Europe is already doing – then approval for the new coal mine makes even less sense.

Yet, companies are laser-focused on it. I could've called this "What's the deal with carbon?"
