    Source: SEC Filings (2024) – Alphabet Investor Relations (abc.xyz) This doesn't make sense. Any comments? Overall, I am bullish on Google.

  • ON Running (ONON)

    Seems like if I walk into scheels or dicks sporting goods the Nike and adidas sections are off to the side. While brooks/hokas/ON are front and center.

    Today I found an old investment folder with recommendations of the Motley Fool 10x Discovery Service from when I was subscribed to their “All Access” pass that cost about $7000 (mid-2020 to mid-2021).  Despite the hype about outperforming the market, the Fool’s recommendations performed poorly for me and I discontinued the service.  To see what…
