Post #77032 by Umm on the US Policy board

When visiting Shrewd'm with a laptop, it can be pleasant to hold Command (or Ctrl with Windows) and '+' a few times. The site scales to allow any font size, and the larger font can be pleasant to read even for Shrewds with perfect sight! For luxury Shrewdness, you can combine that with setting the browser to full screen. You'll then find yourself Shrewding a lot.

"Sure, but not for shirts and goggles. They'll sell if they need the money - but they're not going to sell just to sell, or because the tax rate drops from (picks number) 32% down to 20%. They're still just better off holding unless there's some actual, exogenous reason to sell shares."

As Mark pointed out, even when they need money they rarely sell shares. They just use the shares as collateral for a loan. The shares increase in price faster than the interest on the loan compounds. That way they never have to pay anything in taxes.
