"Fed’s high-rates era handed $1tn windfall to US banks" (FT)

This is subjective. Taking $JPM ROTCE as example, 2021 was all-time record and this was before hikes

ROTCE ex. one-offs:

2021: 23% reported, 18.5% ex. reserve releases
2023: 21% reported, 19% ex. First Republic gains https://t.co/pGe2QGlfB0

Microsoft and Altria both saw FCF/share grew by ~140% between FY13 and FY23 (different FY)

This doesn't mean $MSFT vastly outpaced $MO just because of "valuation"

FCF/share is a bad metric when there's a lot of growth CapEx, because this is also subtracted

MSFT Non-GAAP EPS grew ~275% in FY13-23
Far better than MO's +108%

Twitter user numbers have fallen fast under Elon Musk
And they are falling even faster in the UK than the US

PS. We posting the same content on other platforms, and replies there are open given fewer bots

X “active daily users in the UK have dropped from 8mn a year ago to only around 5.6mn now, with more than a third of that fall coming since the summer riots. The same thing is happening elsewhere, and not just in places where the platform has been banned” https://t.co/Dw0hFQKOQH https://t.co/Gv3MaHtV9z
