He's concerned about Netflix purchase of Warner Brothers and said that not so fast as far as raised concerns about it being a monopoly. So okay, let's, let's talk about, let's have a whole conversation about this. But first let's, let's talk about from an educational standpoint. And this goes to the website for people that may not know what is a monopoly. Right. Where does that, the antitrust in the government come into play at some point in time? I believe, you know, we had, this is like to stop all of the Carnegie and Rockefellers things that happened in the early turn of the century. So talk about monopolies and how this all comes into where we, where we get here now.

F (9:17)

Yeah, this is beautiful. This is, this is the entire sort of history of American capitalism all coming to an head over entertainment assets. The biggest ones being obviously the Warner Brothers library and Netflix, which would have become the biggest content company in the world basically. So monopoly goes all the way back to the antitrust acts of the Railroad Acts, the Sherman act of the Railroad Acts in the, in the 19th century, late 19th century when the railroads were developing in this country, they were building out trying to get cross country and there were several big ones that were colluding together. And that defines monopoly. When you have one, two or more parties colluding together to try to corner a market and control market share that is deemed monopolistic. When they make it anti competitive for competitors to enter the market and anti competitive for suppliers potentially to supply to those competitors, that's monopoly. And usually the Federal Trade Commission rules against monopolies and have tried to strike them down except when the price is right. And we saw today, or it was today or yesterday, a beautiful hostile takeover bid from a competitor now entering the market. So you have a monopoly potentially you have an Antitrust ruling and now you have a hostile takeover bid on all wrapped into one story. This is Investopedia wrapped up in a beautiful box with a bow. I love it.

B (10:34)

Doesn't this make it a little bit more interesting that the administration is involved in this? Obviously they said that, you know, they don't want it to be a monopoly. And then today the President said that he doesn't have friends on either side. But a little dig into the research. He doesn't have friends, but he definitely has family on one side. He definitely. Yeah. And invested interest. I mean this is pretty unique, no?

F (10:57)

Yeah, it's pretty unique, but it's not unusual to this administration. The last time I was on here with you guys a few months back after this administration took office, I said the most important metric right now for companies is proximity to power. Who is sitting at the White House, who's having dinner, who's being invited to the CEO private dinners and Mar a Lago for golf and drinks by the pool. And if you're in that camp, you've done very well as a stock. And this administration has proved that it is going to do what's in its best interest, in the best interest of the people that are close to it and also put their hand into private businesses. Whether that's investments in companies like intel or whether that's trying to strong arm deals between Nvidia and its suppliers or AMD and its suppliers or guarantee that companies build factories and infrastructure here in the United States. They're going to do it. So assume that they will have their hands in this as well.

B (11:46)
