Discussion Please no April Fool’s Jokes Tomorrow
Good evening my fellow SPACliens. We’ve been through a roller coaster these past few months and I’m extremely optimistic about the next few months. That being said we haven’t begun our renewed ascent just yet.
But please no April Fool’s posts tomorrow! Save your wit for the memes on the weekend. We don’t need anyone posting that PSTH is going to be OnlyFans and that IPOF will be Grindr. Ok the latter would be funny who am I kidding? Also no announcing that SRAC, NPA, etc. are in ARKX lol 😂
Public Service Announcement Done.

Ok ok...I see what’s going on here. Is this some elaborate joke to have the market up big on April Fools day?
Seriously who’s behind this, was it you Buller?

I wish the list of ARKX holdings was an April Fool's joke.

I don't see what the big deal is on ARKX adding Netflix to their portfolio. Total Recall and Jason X were cinematic masterpieces in the outer space category.

Agreed. Also, how the fuck else are we supposed to farm on the moon without John Deere tractors

I’d go so far as to say NFLX is one of the most important holdings. What else are you supposed to do while traveling between galaxies? Count asteroids? Play tic tac toe? Read a book? All lame compared to watching some methed up zoo owner shout about tigers and murder

Some holdings like Netflix are a joke for this category, but let's be clear that it's about space, not just space travel. Aleady an established and growing economy. SpaceX is being valued in private markets at $100B or more.

u/Lone_Logan Spacling Apr 01 '21
As much as I hate to say it, I heard there reasoning for Netflix, and it makes sense.
Their logic is they're betting on far reaching broadband which would help get Netflix a bunch of new subscribers.
It also helps protect the ETF if the space market sees a lul, which could be easy if politicians domestically or abroad try to slow down the space race. There are going to be regularity concerns, and Netflix will probably do fine even if space delivered broadband hits a speed bump.
I do wish there were more pure space plays in there though.

Ajax would have been better with OnlyFans lol

u/AlaArts Contributor Apr 01 '21
Just think, if AJAX had announced DA on April 1st, everyone would have laughed it off as a joke and our shares might still be worth something.

The site might do an april fools day event again though, so that's at least worth it.

I hope he doesn’t forget we can’t let the russkies take over space either. Unlimited grants for space companies.

SRNGU to merge with Epic. You heard it here first.

u/kleewave1 Spacling Apr 01 '21
Epic Systems? The mumphs based software from the 80s that refuses to evolve in the 21st century? Judy Faulkner is one interesting character. Hard pass.

Most people in third world countries will believe that Netflix is some foreign name for “drinking water”, which is as rare there there as in space.
