Just wait for the data center implosion.

Oh poor babies, they discovered they had debt to cover.

Although, no D&D references, sorry 😉

I had someone explain it to me earlier. I got a great answer. bsky.app/profile/barb...

Bad news. Always was bad news.

I hope I am not expected to feel bad for these people, because I got two words for them, fuck um

😆 🤣 😂

I love this for them

Bondholders in mortgage backed securities got blasted in 2008. Long memory? Uh, you sure about that? Is that your final answer? They read like suckers born every minute to me, IMO. BTW, wanna buy a bridge?

Anyone who invests in anything should not expect any sort of guaranteed money back. Corporate acts like it would go out of business if the shareholders don’t get paid first. When you work there you expect money, right.

soon to be followed by calls to sell the assets to satisfy investors

Ooooops!

Surely they could have seen that move coming...? Paramount/Skydance principals weren't about to use their OWN money to pay for that! That's not how millionaires become billionaires! They do it with OTHER people's money!

I mean, this is exactly how gambling works.

Greed = Karma Sometimes Instant 💥

Thank you!

Thank you for sharing this.

Yeah, if you're going to share an article, how about not sharing one behind a pay wall. I'm interested in the information, but not the subscription.

Paywalled.

truth

Boondoggle.

Gee that’s too bad

Sink it.

Aww these poor people… who could have seen this coming??

This doesnt surprise me at all. Those fucks are manipulating everything right now in their favor

to which Wall Street eloquently replied “haha suckers”

If you're not among the top 10 richest men in the United States, you are bottom man on the totem pole... be warned

This entire industry did it to themselves.

Fucke Oracle, fuck Paramount, fuck the Ellisons!

lmao

Honey, you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet. Just wait till the dust settles & the viewership aka streaming service premiums tank. That 52B will eat them alive. It’s up to us to make that happen!!!

Mr Cruise supported it...

I thought these guys liked capitalism.

You get what you pay for.

Are you Freaking Serious? That is the without a doubt, the funniest GD thing I have heard in a while. Hello, Karma?

I mean who looked at CBS and thought that this was a business you should buy 20-40 year bonds from? Nepo baby is buying this as a propaganda toy, not to make money.

Unfortunately I don't believe you are wrong.

Linear television, as in the broadcaster chooses what to play at each time slot

BRING IT NOW.

If Oracle craters, I suspect tRump will approve a bailout for his buddy. We’ll be paying for it (like 2008 financial bailout)

Because so many large companies are staking their survival on the AI boom becoming real. "We put AI in your tea kettle!" "I hate that. Why do I need this? I put the kettle on the range, it makes hot water. Why AI?" "Because we're putting AI in your range!" "No!" "Just take the AI!"

greedy bastards lose money - people rejoice

Just wait until the AI bubble bursts and drags them all down the drain.

Sometimes I wonder if the faucets on Wall St have raw milk instead of water. Even I would know to stay the hell away from that deal.

Ahahahaha! Maybe they should make a movie about it.

SUE THE HELL out of the Wall Street banks that underwrote the debt.

Way to go CA... feels like those investors should sue the state for allowing it to go through. Oh well, rich fucks getting fucked by a different rich fuck is probably fine.

He's already working on his excuses not to run for the presidency. He wants people to think of him as 'the best president that America never had'. www.youtube.com/shorts/tqEWx...

🤣😅😂😆

I just can’t figure out how anyone would touch this debt.

It's a forced sham monopoly. What ever happened to anti-trust laws? I guess this criminal fascist regime loves monopolies as long as the oligarchs pay Big Bribes.

They will all be fine

Maybe they should cut down on the avocado toast and learn to budget better.

Ha….ha…..ha…..ha…..ha….ha

I agree. There’s a reason why this merger was unpopular. Oracle stock is dropping in price and there’s a real risk they won’t be able to repay the debt. That’s why the bond interest is so high. It’s a riskier investment.

We live in the stupid times

Oh. Oh well.

Wife and I cancelled our Paramount+ when we heard about all this monopoly bullshit. What? Now nearly everything decent will be owned by RW assholes?

LOL

Hubris is a fickle bitch

Aww. Did the rich run ANOTHER CON?

So happy that Paramount is in trouble

I wish them all nothing but abject poverty and misery for the rest of their miserable, greedy, gluttonous, lives!

Was the plan to kill the industry?

Could this be interpreted as fraud on the investors?

"There's a sucker born every minute".

Love that Journey for them...

Rich people losing money makes me hard.

😆 yup 😆

Karma is a boomerang and a btch....

😢😂😂😂😂

Hilarious. May it all go bankrupt.

😡

There are zero honest business people & zero honest politicians in the US. Mostly very few honest Americans. The average hard working stiff doesn’t stand a chance. The true American dream is just not getting caught.

lol

Paramount Skydance's record $52 billion bond sale to fund its mega-buyout quickly turned sour, dropping in value within hours. This left debt investors with steep paper losses exceeding $200 million and sparked widespread anger toward the Wall Street banks that underwrote the offering.

WTAF did they think was going to happen?

Gee, that's too bad! 🙄

They think things only go up?

I love this for them. Looks like we won't have to eat the rich, because they're so dumb they won't survive long enough to be eaten.

Uhmn,…quiet, Piggies!🤣 Eat that junk. Really. MAGA Makin’ America Greedy(as shit)Again! 👊🇺🇸💩 ffs

I'm happy and contented when I steal their wares

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

It was all a scam. All a lie

People have dirt on them. Period

That is not good for millions and millions if fam That is not the answer

Hey, you gotta spend somebody else's money to make money.

And who is going to pick up the pieces? I hope a group of professionals from the industry. Who know what their doing . The banks are going to take a big hit on this one.

we need to rip apart these companies... like really we need to tear these super merger companies apart... they own too much AND the quality of products are NOT getting better AT ALL...

Deal with conmen, get ripped off, the American way.

My heart bleeds

How long before they liquidate?

*whomp, whomp*

Letting rich people do whatever they want with as little regulation as possible always works out super well. It never hurts the economy, or distorts markets, or reduces product quality, or consumer choice, or limits entrepreneurial opportunity, or anything. That's what I've noticed. Yup.
