Netflix does not have a history of making big hits. I’ll give them 2.5 - Narcos, Stranger Things, Mindhunter. Some minor hits they ran into the ground— Squid game, Witcher and some rando minor hits - Tiger King Buying WB does give them an IP pipeline which they currently lack. A $2/mo bump might cover debt service, but won’t cover increased OH & Production costs I for one am eagerly awaiting the sopranos reboot where Tony is played by a blue haired Asian hermaphrodite

Car values are based on what people pay for them. They are based on what dealers pay for them at auctions. Even your biggest franchise dealers still sell sell a majority used on a monthly basis. Not everyone buys new. Manheim auto auction is one of the biggest in the US (Adesa, and a other local ones being the best). Manheim is owned by none other than Cox Automotive. Cox Automotive also owns Kelly Blue Book, a reputable auto data and analytics platform used by many dealers and some lenders. I do not use KBB because I don't want skewed data. Meaning Cox has their hands on too many variables within the auto industry. They own Dealertrack, a large dealer DMS platform, Manheim for the sale of used unit, and even KBB for valuation. I want something a little more unbiased. That's where JD Power (formerly NADA) or BlackBook come in at. Carvana probably uses data from all three and, more than likely, a combination of their own sales data. Hell, when I worked finance for a new Chevy dealer years ago, we had a team that worked to ensure we were priced the lowest in a 500 mile radius of our dealership, on every used unit, regardless of book data. That was also 2016ish when things weren't as regarded. Let's take a trip back in time to 21 again. New cars were hard to come by due to supply chain constraints. This shot used car prices up. Banks were lending on those new values and people were buying. Dealers were naming their prices and had people waiting in lines to get in on super low rates. As time went on, new cars became more available but had to compete with used cars. It didn't make sense to charge $50k for a new F150 when a used 2019 was still bringing $40k+. So Ford, for example, just decided that their trucks were now arbitrarily worth $60k. After all, they can make an MSRP what ever they want. By doing so, this kept used car prices inflated. Now I "have" to pay these prices for a used unit or buy at an even higher price to go new. Just imagine how pissed people would be if the 2019 f150 they just bought last year for $45k is suddenly worth $30k because Ford came back with new units after Covid at their old prices. You would have tyranny. Nobody could have traded. Inflated new car prices meant they could flip more negative equity into a new unit and still get approved. That's kinda dumbed down, but it's makes sense in the grand scheme of things.

Yes spacex has been contracted to deorbit the iss, spacex has also been contracted to launch the axiom and vast stations. And yes amazon has hired, ula(vulcan and atlas), blue origin(new glenn), arianespace( ariane 6) and spacex(falcon 9) to launch their sats. We have no idea what spacex is making on launches they dont make it public. Their are rumours that the internal cost for falcon 9 is around 20 Million but for customers minimum 65/69 million. Still being cheaper that their current competition ULA
