I previously worked for a company who stacked a whole bunch of empty boxes on pallets in the warehouse racks and claimed to the bank it was millions of dollars worth of assets and used them as security on further loans.

The bank sent in a team of auditors to check but critically, the auditors could only operate off of what we put in front of them. So they signed off on our paperwork and the company got its loan.

Still went bankrupt in the end though.

Wikipedia: Inverted Yield Curve:

"It has often been said that the inverted yield curve has been one of the most reliable leading indicators for economic recession during the post–World War II era. Proponents of this position maintain that inversion tends to predate a recession 7 to 24 months in advance.

Others are skeptical, for example stating that the inverted yield curve is "not necessarily" a reliable metric for predicting recession, or that it has predicted "nine of the past five" recessions.

In 2023, inversion during a labor shortage and low indebtedness raised questions over whether widespread awareness of its predictive power made it less predictive."

Walmart has been notorious for this stuff for decades. If the invoice is net 90 they pay on day 91. They've been putting suppliers out of business for a very long time.

it's weird how Reddit picked up a reputation as being full of "bernie bros" in 2016 and now strictly punishes any viewpoint or opinion you wouldn't hear on air on MSNBC
