Very scary. Even European funds are gonna be affected if they invest into an index.

Is there a way to invest in an index fund minus certain companies?

I haven't heard of such a thing. I guess you could roll your own by buying derivatives that would effectively remove the influence of a particular stock from your index fund investment. Seems like a fintech opportunity doesn't it?

$1.75T / 25,000 employees = $70M/employee. That's pretty impressive.

You would think even the lowest paid employees performing routine labor at the company would be pulling in multiple 6-figure salaries. I wonder if that's the case?
