Never understood the people who were eager to short new product launches/ new indications like $PODD. Doesn't take a lot to move the needle early days to get people excited. Margins/ profitability inflecting as well, that's usually a fantastic long set-up. https://t.co/OQwe1bMJwp

Harris’ entire campaign was centered in being more relatable than Trump. By turning down the Rogan podcast it sent the exact opposite message. The unwillingness to drop the chameleon act just smells bad. It would have actually played out in her favor. https://t.co/AkZsz2sDyO
