Why BlackRock is Building a New Stock Market... In Texas | How Money Works

Why SPACs are Popular InvestmentsNicola Motors, Draft Kings, and Virgin Galactic have a lot in common.For starters all these companies have recently gone public and are still not profitable and while that's common for many IPOs neither Nicola or virgin galactic have actually generated any revenue from their main service lines.For Nikola they haven't even sold any electric vehicles and for Virgin Galactic they have still yet to deliver on their space tourism services. Most people would consider these stocks to be early stage and incredibly risky for wall street bets though it's a great idea.Perhaps the most important thing to understand about these companies is how they went public and that's through a spec or a special purpose acquisition company.We're going to look at specs how they're structured and answer why they become so popular among investors.SPAC's are by no means anything incredibly new they've existed for a while now but have just recently become popular again.The general idea behind a SPAC is that their management team raises money from investors to go public and then uses that money to buy another company the process through which the acquisition occurs is called a reverse merger and how this works is actually pretty simple...Music from Epidemic Sound#SPAC #IPO #HowMoneyWorksFollow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.

Now you probably already know the old joke that… no they are not working 400 times harder than their employees… but being a CEO IS still a serious commitment that normally involves making life long sacrifices to climb the corporate ladder or start a successful business all while being constantly accountable to shareholders and a board of directors. The pay is good, but the work is hard, and if you want to be CEO, you need to be on call 24/7 to put out fires, or your time at the top will be very short lived. That’s the story anyway… So then… what is behind the massive rise in CEO’s that only work part time, IF they show up to work at all? Well it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why else companies have become happy to pay millions of dollars to people who barely show up to work. Follow to learn How Money Works.

Banking is Broken (And We May Not Be Able to Fix It) - How Money Works Sign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈 Banking has become too complicated and too concentrated for it's own good and this could have serious impacts on us all. #Banking #Finance #HowMoneyWorks ___________________________________________________________________________ Support the channel on Patreon here - https://www.patreon.com/HowMoneyWorks ___________________________________________________________________________ Link To The Capitalists Discord where I hang out with other creators - https://discord.gg/8MeNJ7gfSR Music by Epidemic Sound ___________________________________________________________________________ Banking is an incredibly important industry which is based off a very simple concept. People with more money than they know what to do with can keep it in a safe secure institution which can then lend that money out to people who have big idea’s but not enough money to make them happen. They give a small incentive to the depositors, and charge a higher premium from the borrowers, making a profit for the service that they provide as a “financial intermediary” This system has become more complex over time with things like fractional reserve banking, and alternative capital sources, but if we strip all of that away we will still find that the heart of banking is this simple mechanism. For all of the hate that banks get, they can do a lot of good in an economy. To people who want a safe place to keep their money they offer an almost 100% guarantee that the money left with them will still be there, a day, a month, a century from when it was deposited. They also make that money readily accessible, online, over the phone, from a collection of ATM’s, or simply through a plastic debit card. To people that want to borrow money they are also the “go to” institution for a fair loan based on lending parameters developed over time. We may hate things like credit scores and employment checks, but it’s part of the reason why so many people are paying below 3% on their mortgages right now. Follow to learn How Money Works.
