Is Mr Fink aware of the fate of the last CEO who tried to extract profits from those in need? Because I'm starting to think he and his lot are asking for a refresher on the matter.

We saw what was a perfect three-word alliteration as found on certain shell casings for a healthcare CEO, but what comparable three-word alliteration would be suitable for an asset manager? I don't know...

Sorry UnitedHealth, but your insurance does not cover getting bled dry by parasitic leeches.

I know it doesn't matter because money, but in what world does Blackrock have any semblance of standing to sue?

[–] hildegarde@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 6 days ago

according to the supreme court standing is no longer required

[–] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 18 points 6 days ago

If they're shareholders, they probably have standing to sue over lost shareholder value or some such bullshit like that
