Definitely not the next Enron.

> It’s a milestone for Tempe, Arizona-based Carvana, which has jumped to around $400 per share currently from a 2022 low of less than $4 — a 10,000% gain — as its efforts to cut costs and restructure debt have helped boost earnings.

That restructuring of debt means punting it off to shell corporations, literally a key part of what Enron was doing.

The entire crop of companies being added to the S&P index are a joke.

- APP: should be investigated by the SEC for scamming customers (nothing they do is artificial intelligence, they outsource to India)

- COIN: income is from crypto holdings

- DASH: how are people still paying for burrito taxis when they can't afford rent

- HOOD: has become a gambling app

- TTD: down to $40 from $150 a year ago, how does this even qualify?
