    Okay so they still have 2.5 Billion in their pocket and the net profits from three or four more years?

    Let’s say they “only” make two Billion in net profit for the next three years. They’d have eleven Billion dollars just sitting there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        This is Lemmy; theres very vocal cohort of the users who are anti-corporate, poor grasp of the financial system, and have no content to read so they wander out into communities they have no business in.

        Don’t bother.

        Er, sure, but - is the larger point not clear? They don’t need to fire people. They’re ludicrously profitable.

          Not immediately no, but it increases their margins which makes the company more likely to survive a significant economic downturn.
