Volkswagen was briefly the highest valued company on the world after an epic shirt squeeze. It's just one of those things. You know it will go down, and you know its overvalued, but you also know that there's a chance to make a lot of money, so you hold.

I can’t believe the California utilities commission would fine a power company for having a downed power line. What the hell do they expect? That all distribution is buried at 10x the cost?

To keep up with their tree trimming at a minimum, which they have failed to do multiple times in the past and been fined for.

Leperflesh

Yes. It's likely that once again PG&E failed to maintain their lines, and downed lines probably are responsible for at least the napa county and santa rosa fires, which have killed a whole bunch of people. And folks around here still remember the san bruno gas explosion, which they were also at fault for due to failing to maintain their infrastructure.

The big fines they got hit with for failing to trim trees around a transmission line were explicitly taken from PG&E profits, too: they were not permitted to add to customer rates to pay for them. So that's another precedent that should scare shareholders.

I can't from TD Ameritrade in the US, as far as I understand. The goal was to pretty much use the top three to gamble on the rest. I think APHQF is the least risky out of that selection. OGRMF, SPRWF, EMMBF seem to be going for general recreational sales on a large scale, without any sort of gimmicks to waste money on (well maybe EMMBF but the goal is the same). TRTC also but for the US, if they don't run out of money before it happens. The ones you mention are firmly established for their domain, TWMJF being firmly established in general. IVITF is a gamble but they sell consumable industry products.

Actually it did not occur to me that SMG owns General Hydroponics and stuff until I looked at HMMJ's holdings. Heck I've used GH stuff for things that aren't hydroponics. I might just chop off the last 3 and get SMG.

I work with PG&E as an industrial level customer of both NG and electricity. In my experience they are an unwieldy behemoth with very poor coordination between their numerous groups. They frequently make mistakes or oversights in their maintenance work but are usually saved by built-in redundancies or engineering protections but sometimes they manage to even gently caress up the backups, see the Valero refinery incident a few months ago. They are regulated seven ways to Sunday and are just barely keeping up with their NERC requirements. They have thousands of miles of power lines and buried high pressure NG pipes, I can't imagine the expense that would be required to appropriately PM their entire network not to mention the risk exposure to something being missed leading to high impact consequences (such as San Bruno or potentially these fires).

I know this is the gambling thread and no one here is long anything. I have no idea if PG&E's stock price is appropriately valued but as a customer we see them as an unreliable partner and I'd personally look at other utilities if I wanted to go long.

Ultimately though, I think that's true of almost every large company.

I work for a pretty highly regarded large company and the public perception is pretty far from the truth. I'll read articles gushing about genius management, and the super secret alien technology we definitely must have, and...well not really. Like there's smart people and cool poo poo, but it's a bureaucratic mess and we're all surprised on a regular basis that we're able to make functioning products. And it's the same with everyone we work with/for, if not worse. I interned at a utility company, and holy moly that was a mess.

That's not a knock on any specific company, I just think that large numbers of people and the layers of complexities that build over time are impossible to manage efficiently. Complexities ranging from processes to technology being used, to just simply personalities and entrenched self interest.

The new generation of tech companies like Google and Facebook will be a mess eventually too, if they aren't already. Anyway, you might be right about them in particular, if they're bad even on the scale of large companies, but I always just try to remember that basically everything is a loving mess everywhere and it's a wonder that anything works at all.

I think you're absolutely right. I meant to emphasize in my post that I think PG&E being disfunctional leaves them exposed to causing real external damage rather than missing a shipment on an order of widgets. I guess that's countered by a state-guaranteed profit.

Google is infamous for throwing absurd amounts of money into bullshit. However investors don't care because their core business revenue growth and profitability completely obscures any waste and inefficiency.

I tired to cancel netflix because the content is garbage and I got yelled at by my wife and daughter because of Fuller House. I did not cancel it and they are now spreading the series out over two releases so I can't even make them watch it all and cancel it for 5 months. At least with HBO I can get in a whole season of all the shows in one month and cancel it right from my amazon video screen.
