The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I wasn't very happy to see the Google news today due to the dilution of my Alphabet shares. Also, Berkshire appears to be adding to its significant position in Alphabet at an elevated valuation. Do we want to be buying when Alphabet is selling?

While Alphabet’s massive $80 billion capital raise is largely headlined by its aggressive multi-billion dollar artificial intelligence infrastructure buildout, I am surprised more attention hasn’t been focused on Alphabet earmarking a whopping $30 billion of the proceeds to cover the 2026 calendar year tax obligations associated with the vesting of employee equity awards.
