    lol no

    Following a years-long restructuring effort that included selling 32,000 patents for up to $900 million in 2023, the smartphone pioneer that was once left for dead is showing signs of growth

    with that kinda money it could have just sat in the stock market

    it made 53 million lololol

        more than 53 mil from over 900 mil

        with enough money 10% is easily safely assured dividends, bonds etc

        with the current stupid market 30% would have been pretty easy 3year, my return’s been over 20% with rather conservative target retirement and some large cap

        hell 2026 was the first year of profit so two years were not so 53mil profit is like 2% rolling

        you can make that in a savings account and spread out that is fdic insured

            don’t get me wrong i hate the stock market and its vibes and capitalism can eat a dick

            my issue was with this obvious hype piece claiming bb is doing well

            the market share sounds impressive but it had capitol falling out if its ears and until its numbers are consistent and better i’m sure as shit not investing money in them
