Corporations Required To Announce Large Investments

Listed corporations are required by law to announce plans for significant investments, such as large acquisitions. 

None of the listed corporations of the Korean conglomerates that pledged to invest vast amounts in the next years have filed such plans to date.

Wonder if they will file? Should be soon, if they really plan to spend money this year or even the first half of next year.

(CORRECTED - the pledges include past amounts that were pledged, I read. So, some of the investments have already been announced. It depends on the economy. If the economy is good, they will likely keep a majority of their pledges, if the economy is not so good, then no way).

Get paid to know these things. Is it a miracle? In many ways.

Think Korean conglomerates are cheering for a conservative win in the local elections next week because of comprehensive property taxes. The family owners, executives, corporations, acolytes, and relatives, own most of the real estate in Korea. 

The conservatives want to lower or eliminate comprehensive property taxes, but the progressive/liberal party holds a majority in the parliament, so the law is unlikely to be changed.

Almost all media only publish blatantly pro-Yoon, pro-conservative party articles ALL the time and call the opposition criminals and such. Yet, the conservatives are losing in many districts, over 50%. Hope the recent historical trend is maintained. hehe.

The progressive party holds over 50% of the seats in the parliament. Faint light of hope!

Real insights into Korean society, not BS from conservative media.

Absentee voting starts today.

Understanding Requires Common Ground

Or some mutual telepathic connection?

That's a very pertinent question.

All life appears to have some metaphysical connection, do you think? 

If 'do you think' is effective subliminal messaging, imagine the consequences of  'don't you think'?

A world populated by a lot of people who don't think, sounds familiar.

Why do these questions keep springing to the consciousness, aside from interest?

Could be the process of knowledge being created/discovered in my thoughts through cognitive consonance, or resonating good/positive thoughts...

Drug Addict?

Sounds worse than drug abuser and much worse than drug dependent, or the truest nickname drug liker?

Sounds like the term was deliberately meant to denigrate and alienate drug users?

Should terms that incite hatred against some people be banned? Ban people who use such terms? From the metaphysical universe, hehe.

Ever hear 'alcohol addict'? No, but addicted to alcohol, yes. 

Guess 'addict' could be used without malice, such as 'football addict'.

There's so much money flowing in stocks. Dollar is now strong against the Korean Won and some stocks are undervalued, so foreign investors are buying again in some sectors. Foreign investors mostly sold in the past year or so, if memory is correct. 

I am a 15% addict. Need 15% or more annual return on investment. 

Our Metaphysical Universe?

The other side of our universe with metaphysical properties, metaphysical dimensions, reverse entropy, metaphysical energy, metaphysical feelings, metaphysical black holes and more? Where truth resonates?

Mostly my metaphysical universe for now, until others see more of it. Could get crowded. Where to go?

Always wanted things in the past and get most of them? Try not to want anything special and see where it leads?

Korean Conglomerates To Invest Hundreds of Billions?

They have pledged to invest and create jobs at the start of every past conservative President's term and failed to do so.

Suspiciously happens just before local elections on June 1.

Whoa! Even conservative Korean publications are complaining that Korean conglomerates always pledge to invest at the start of a president's administration but fail to do so.  

Invest Chosun - 재계 '역대급 투자' 보따리…정권 교체때마다 봐야 하는 불편함 

Did you know Samsung used to give expensive gifts and presents to prosecutors and judges, in some cases tried to give? Not to mention company executives being convicted for wanton destruction of evidence.

Reuters: Samsung trial tests South Korea's rule of law

Betcha President Yoon grants Lee a pardon and erases his convictions. 50:50 odds.

In Samsung's defense, please note that it seems to be a South Korean conglomerate 'thing' based on past history. They haven't changed in the past, why expect change in the future?

Shouldn't be so negative? Be more objective?

Another metaphysical feeling. Can truth be felt in music? Think so, from my perspective.

Spoken Truth?

Does truth resonate in spoken statements or claims?

Or is truth of the spoken statements/claims resonating in my thoughts?

Could be both, as always.

All Want Raised Taxes?

BBC: Millionaires at Davos say 'tax us more'

Millionaires for Humanity, a growing network of millionaires clamoring for more tax.

Slightly more optimistic?
