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.

"So far, things are looking up for the Warren Buffett company. Hurricane Idalia made landfall Wednesday as a powerful Category 3 storm, but weakened to a Category 1 hurricane as it made its way across Florida toward Georgia.

The average insured losses for Hurricane Idalia were projected to be $9.36 billion, wrote UBS analyst Brian Meredith in a Tuesday note, citing preliminary estimates from RMS, a catastrophe risk modeling firm under Moody's. That would be a fraction of the $112 billion damage Hurricane Ian inflicted when it struck the state last year."
