You mean scrambled porn, right?

I think that must be post split then. If it was pre-split, those would be $8.75 shares, which is a very good price and you would be way up.

Not sure how that's possible unless you only bought back in 2021. Within the last 2 years, it actually peaked in May of this year around $65. Otherwise, it's been pretty stable around $20-$30. There's been plenty of time to get a low average cost and take profit when it starts running again. Now that they have year-over-year profitability and $4-billion in cash, I expect there will be future opportunities too.

Speed walking and running are distinctly different things.

OP was just walking. Where are you getting this running idea from?

From your source:

{The upper flow is faster and from Bernoulli's equation the pressure is lower. The difference in pressure across the airfoil produces the lift.} As we have seen in Experiment #1, this part of the theory is correct.

Sure, it might be more complicated and there are other forces at play. Also, top and bottom air molecules may not reach the backside of an airfoil at the exact same time, but that doesn't diminish the effects of this pressure differential on lifting force.

That lift explanation is innacurate/incomplete. While there may be some equal and opposite forces depending on the angle of attack, the primary reason for lift is due to Bernoulli's Principle. Airfoils have a rounded upper surface with a longer path for air to take, relative to the underside. This requires air to move at a higher velocity over the top, and since A1 x V1 x P1 = A2 x V2 x P2, pressure over the airfoil decreases. It is this pressure differential that creates lift.

In regards to aircraft, Newton's third law of motion applies to thrust from a propeller or jet engine.

To make people happy, I think it would take a return to a running average of 2%. This requires a temporary drop below 2%, perhaps even to 0 or negative. Otherwise, you're just telling them to suck it up and embrace the new normal.

No. If you would look at the graph in the link you posted, you would see that 2020 is right before the huge spike in inflation. This sustained spike explains the current outrage over increased prices.

Oh neat! Inflation only exists if it happened in the last 12 months. /s

Accumulative inflation is a thing, and it is up 21.8% since 2020.

People are not goldfish with minds that reset every year. Per your own link, accumulative inflation is up 21.8% since 2020.
