Can someone please explain how the stock price hasn't fucking crashed yet?
My short isn't going that well.
AZN.L : -0.24% on the position.
AZN : -0.80% on the position.
Same reason the housing crash was artificially inflated even after they knew it was crashing, they have government backers.
Yeah, a company is never going to go bankrupt as long as it has support from the money printers.
So, Bank of England is propping it up?
Insert any country that has a contract with/ funding for AZN, stock market manipulation for pharmaceuticals is so George W’s Congress, but it’s the same methodology. They likely will not see a massive hit, and if they do it will be instantly bailed out because’COVID’.
That housing bubble never entirely popped. It can hit again for the same reasons. Fortunately, that financial time bomb has been safely buried under a mountain of new bombs.
My guess is they'll still find people to buy the vaccine. Wealthy countries are buying up the other vaccines which means poorer country are stuck with Astra whether they want to or not.
Plus, these countries haven't outright banned it. They've only suspended its use until the EU authorities say "nothing to see here, everything is fine", which they always do. Can't allow for the vacc train to be derailed by a few deaths.
The suspension is just posturing by local politicians so they can save their asses when more people die. They're passing the buck to unelected and unaccountable EU bureaucrats.
I can't imagine the African countries accepting it. A vaccine not good enough for the white man being dumped on them would be a massive insult.
The EU authorities aren't going to rule it safe, there's far too much distrust of it now. That won't go away. After the ruling in Piedmont today, AZN's fate is sealed in Europe. Even if they do rule it safe, it'll just make everyone suspicious of the EMA.
You did it, you foiled The Genocide.
So we're just going to ignore that the Italian data shows all the severe reactions have been in men?
I'm just happy that no one in my family got this diversity hire BS vaccine. Whether it's deliberately harming or just pure incompetence, the stupid thing deserves to be banned forever.
GME has taught you nothing, my woman hating friend.
It's all a big game, and you aren't a player.
It's already priced in I guess. Too many people way more "in the know" than the average person. I would go with they don't expect it to get permanently banned and since people are afraid and/or need it for their
social credit scorevaccine passport that they will all line up for it anyway.I thought the market was totally nuts early last year. WTF, these people are crazy why would it sell off so hard because of stupid disease in China. That will never matter. I think it's painfully obvious how WRONG that take was.
I was surprised the market did not sink more with the 30% unemployment and massive tanking - supposedly - of GDP. I was waiting for it to tank even more. So I missed the bus.
