Es OFICIAL!🔥 ¿Se acuerdan que ofrecimos cerrar el 2021 con cifra récord de 2.000 millones en nuevas inversiones? Ayer, sobrepasamos la meta! Al aprobar 506 millones de 5 empresas. En 6 meses logramos 1650 millones, sumados a los 400m que se firmaron ene-mayo, son 2050 millones – at Quito, Ecuador

Coinbase is a $90 billion company growing revenues by 465%+ per year with profit margins of 44%. Folks, this doesn't happen. Large financial competitors sat on the sidelines for so long, terrified of crypto. Now, it's too late. Incredible story.

Jeff Bezos (who's worth $190 billion) legally paid $0 in taxes for two years and got a tax *credit* one year, while his company (which is worth $1.7 trillion) legally paid $0 in taxes for two years... and people think workers getting $300/week on unemployment are the freeloaders

This morning's relative calm in financial #markets is consistent with The view that this weekend's historic G-7 corporate tax deal is necessary but not sufficient for tax reform; and #Investors'/#traders' confidence in an unchanged @ECB and @FederalReserve policy stance for now
