Financial Ratios are gold

They help you to make rational investment decisions

Here are the 10 best Financial Ratios ever: Image
1. Net Debt/EBITDA

This ratio shows how many years it would take for a company to pay off its debt using its earnings.

A lower number means the company can repay its debt more easily. Image
2. Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)

ROIC measures how well a company turns its capital (money from investors and loans) into profits.

A higher ROIC means the company is using its money effectively. Image

THREAD: Israel has a history of violating ceasefire agreements

As Israel resumes its genocide in Gaza, it’s important to remember that it has a well-documented history of breaking ceasefires. Here are just some examples ⬇️
❌2008: In the midst of a several-month ceasefire, Israeli soldiers invade the Gaza town of Deir al-Balah and kill 6 Palestinians.
❌2012: Israel breaks a ceasefire by shooting at Palestinian farmers and fishermen in Gaza.

President Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education. His reasoning has ranged from claiming America ranks dead last in education, that the Department of Education is indoctrinating children with liberal propaganda, that control of education should be returned to the states, and that America spends the most on education in the world.

The problem with all of those reasons is that they are false. America doesn’t rank dead last in education. We rank close to the top in some subjects. The Department of Education doesn’t determine the school curriculum because control is already in the hands of the states, and America isn’t the nation with the highest spending on education.

Let’s explore.Image
International testing for education performance allows us to compare America's performance to other nations. One such test is the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), administered by the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), a group of 38 highly developed nations that work together to “build better policies for better lives” through data and policy examinations.

The test is administered every three years, the most recent being in 2022. The United States scored 5th in reading and 12th in science among OECD nations. However, America has consistently scored lower in mathematics, and this year was no exception, ranking 28th. The United States also ranked 8th in educational attainment, with 92% of adults having at least a high school diploma compared to the OECD average of 79%.

Clearly, America is not the worst nation for education, or even close to it, although there are areas for improvement. What about spending?
The United States does spend a lot on education, just like we spend heavily on most areas of society, including healthcare, housing, food, and so much more. Being the world's wealthiest country brings a higher cost of living. Despite this, America is not the country with the highest spending on education. For primary schooling, Austria, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, and Luxembourg all outspend America, with Sweden and Korea not far behind. For secondary education, twelve nations spend more than the US.

90% of K-12 funding in America comes from state and local levels. So, any claim that the federal government is spending too much on education is ridiculous. For K-12 funding, the Department of Education provides resources for low-income families, which accounted for $18 billion in 2023, special education programs for children with disabilities, which cost $15 billion, and school improvement programs, which cost $6 billion. For comparison, the US military cost $820 billion in 2023, and its budget has increased by $75 billion since then.

If the Department of Education isn’t mainly focused on funding education, is it focused on curriculum instead?

🚨 🚨

While there were students there for the photo-op, there were also a number of other prominent politicians at Trump’s event yesterday—announcing the destruction of the Dept of Ed

And the old saying that “you are judged by the company you keep” certainly applies here…

1/ Image
Because the governors who were there to cheer on this latest attack on public education all have one thing in common beyond their party affiliation: they are all pursuing disastrous education privatization schemes in their states.

2/
And while some were early movers along the reckless and destructive path, and others are new entrants, the results in these states—by every measure—are all the same: abominable.

The greatest mystery in human history:

The Pyramids of Giza.

Aliens? Lost technology? A cover-up?

We don't know.

But scientists just found a hidden structure TWICE the height of the Burj Khalifa beneath the pyramids…

And it changes everything.

Here's the fascinating story: Image
The Pyramids of Giza have stood for over 4,500 years, captivating humanity with their sheer size, precision, and mystery.

Built as tombs for pharaohs?

Maybe.

But recent discoveries suggest they might be something far more extraordinary…
How were the pyramids built? 3 theories:

- Ramp Theory: Massive ramps to move stones (most widely accepted).

- Internal Ramp Theory: Spiral ramps inside the pyramid, proposed by JP Houdin.

- Water Shaft Theory: Using water channels to transport stones.

Which one is true?

RFK Jr. Issues Grave Vaccination Warning

HHS Secretary Kennedy just upended the bird flu vaccine narrative, revealing a disturbing reality authorities are trying to hide. Why isn’t anyone talking about this?

🧵 THREAD Image
The USDA wants to vaccinate millions of chickens to stop the bird flu. They claim it’s the ultimate solution, but not everyone’s convinced. RFK Jr., for one, is sounding the alarm.

He’s worried about a big problem: “leaky vaccines.” Image
Leaky vaccines don’t actually stop a virus from spreading.

Instead, they risk transforming entire flocks into virus mutation factories, churning out new variants like some kind of twisted science experiment gone wrong. All under the guise of health and safety.

This is a slop post, but there's a broader problem with the way people try to score cheap points by pointing out things like the life expectancy issue, the HIV rate, alcoholism, etc. These issues are very telling as to why Russians feel the way they do about Putin and the USSR.
Westerners broadly misunderstand how the collapse of the USSR was experienced in places like Russia and Ukraine. The implosion of the Soviet economy was not a pleasant experience in any way, and the country did not make a clean transition, either politically or economically.
All the generally understood problems with the Soviet planned economy were true. Soviet central planning was more wasteful, less dynamic, less innovative, and created less wealth than western market economies. All that being said, the system largely "worked."

Olive oil is a true superfood backed by science.

New research confirms it’s linked to significantly reduced mortality risk and disease prevention.

How to consume it for maximum health benefits: 🧵 Image
If you're not consuming olive oil regularly, you will after reading this thread.

Olive oil consumption is linked to:

• 11% decrease in cancer mortality
• 16% lower cardiovascular mortality
• 15% reduction in all-cause mortality

It's literally a liquid gold. Image
What makes olive oil different from other fats?

Unlike highly processed seed oils, EVOO is simply cold-pressed from olives.

• No extreme heat
• No harsh chemicals
• No industrial processing

Just pure, natural fat with its protective compounds intact.

This economist created a philosophy based on one radical idea:

Government is the greatest threat to human freedom.

He is the godfather of anarcho-capitalism.

7 ideas from one of America’s most controversial economists that will transform your worldview🧵 Image
1. "If the State may do anything, then no area of human liberty can possibly exist.”

Your entire life comes down to decision-making.

No centralized authority can accurately act in EVERYONE’s best interest.

They act and we follow. Have a goal or you will be assigned one.
2. "The man who seeks freedom must avoid the State as he would a plague."

Government isn’t your savior—it’s a disease that infects your life.

Rothbard knew: liberty thrives regardless of the state.

The spirit of freedom erupts:
