My mother worked with a direct decedent. She has had nothing to say but this person was an outstanding person and yes they were protected. I have the distinction of being old friends with a great descendent. In the several years of friendship, I never heard a word of the family dealings. Looking back, from my 20-something point of view at the time it seemed like the family moved on. I didn’t learn of the connection until years later when they had moved out of state. So I guess to answer the question, I have nothing sufficient to add to the OP’s question other than hearsay.

In January, the shares were trading around $50, supported by 2019 revenue of $20.8 billion, earnings of $3 billion, and $10 billion debt. Today, the company has revenues of roughly $6 billion, an estimated loss of around $7 billion, and $20 Billion in debt. Revenues likely won’t return to pre pandemic levels for 8-9 years. I think your money may be put to better use elsewhere.

Not necessarily, the credit bureaus are far from perfect. I have a similar experience. I was added to a parents card at 16, they had opened the account when I was 10. The bureau has that card on my history going back to when I was 10. Something similar may have happened with your card.

If I were looking to buy a tech specific fund I’d look into IGM over VGT. Just my $.02

That’s a little misleading. All SIFI banks took additional capital, regardless of need, to prevent a run on the weak banks that needed the funding.
