  • 17.5% haircut

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Sun May 4 11:51:43 2025
    Billionaires ramped up support for Trump in 2024 and are now watching
    their fortunes plummet (-7.4% already). Not surprising for a GOP
    admin--it's history repeating itself.

    The billionaires who attended Trump's inauguration are faring even
    worse--they are down a combined $194B YTD, a 17.5% haircut.

    But I doubt they've had to cut back much on their lifestyles.

    If any had a Tesla, I'm sure they got rid of them, except for Elon.
