About 50% on the Pfizer vaccine along, if you want to waste an hour or so go and have a study of their accounts, do you think they are in this for love or money?

I read somewhere it costs a little over a US$1 to make and they sell it in a range of US$10 - 20
For many people Sharetrader has become mainly a place to vent emotions, rather than sharing analysis of stocks. It has deteriorated over the years. I had a break for nearly a year and it is very noticeable how unhealthy and toxic it has become in the last year. Many of the comments are really negative, and name calling and personal attacks are common behaviour. Diversity is not welcome. Group think is preferred. I am surprised at how shallow the discussions are. Sometimes it is better for your mental health not to read Sharetrader.

Moka & ADogsLife; You have the power in your hands (keyboard fingers in this case!) to influence the path that this thread takes. If you wish to wield some of that power, perhaps you would be best to share with us your own analysis of OCA?
Place your analysis under the spotlight for others to consider, critique & respond to. It is only through the unbridled competition of thinking, opinions & ideas that real progress can be made; whatever the endeavour.
I have never read the book 1984, but I see there is a nation of Oceania.
At the beginning of the book 1984, these words are presented as the official motto of the nation of Oceania:
War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength
— George Orwell, 1984
The words are written in enormous letters on the white pyramid of the Ministry of Truth, which considering that they are obvious contradictions, seems to be an odd place to put them.
Orwell opened his book in this way on purpose in order to introduce the reader to the concept of Doublethink, which is what allows the people of Oceania to live with constant contradictions in their lives. Doublethink is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in one’s mind simultaneously.

The NZX50 Gross index inclusive of all dividends paid year to date is down for the year and headed for the worst year in more than a decade. This sets the backdrop for the tone this year as well as we're going through the worst pandemic ever experienced in over 100 years.
I could say a lot more but its probably best I don't.
heres a question for the people who work in retirement villages.
