prison stocks went up right after kamala harris was confirmed as vp

there are ppl who actually approve of this?

guess the name explains this

never forget how the stock market surged after bernie dropped out https://www.google.ch/amp/s/www.al.com/business/2020/04/stock-markets-jump-after-bernie-sanders-drops-out.html%3foutputType=amp

lmaooo so many ppl did not know there are prison stocks. i am glad this brought some awareness. but in case you can't believe this shit:

*breaths in*

THERE. ARE. PRISON. COMPANIES.

SOME. ARE. LISTED. ON. THE. STOCK. EXCHANGE.

watch this interview of angela davis which is a very good introduction to prison abolitionism

mass incarceration, kept alive and expanded by private profit, is one of the biggest symptoms and causes of systemic racism. donate here to help https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co 

some have pointed out that the hike seems to be caused by an index change, which would make sense (there could be mny other reasons as well). the larger point here is that whenever a pro-establishment candidate is confirmed you can see price hikes across many different industries

notice that i didn't explicitly state that the harris pick "caused" the hike, even if that is implied. causes to stock price changes can be rarely isolated; but it is not a far fetch to assume establishment candidates have an effect when that has been the case over & over again

i mean, am i rly to blame if i assumed these two events would have some correlation?

veeeeery far-fetched
