Alternative take: Li Ka Shing took advantage of the Trump bullshit to sell off two port operations at the top of the market, right before a global recession. CK Hutchinson’s share price went up by a fifth when this deal got announced; Blackrock is down.
And just before Panama has to cease operation because climate change is drying things up there and soon it’s choosing between having drinking water or operating the locks on the canal.
Rubio went down there, looked the Panamanians directly in the eye and said the US was going to invade, and shoot everyone in their Government in the face, if they didn’t do exactly what they were told to do
sighs …
This seems like satire, but it also sounds true.
I hate you as a company but I gotta respect the grift on this one. Well played BlackRock.
BlackRock: I was always there
