On 2023-09-18, I called an unspecified metric “particularly scary” and said it cannot be a good sign when people running a company are selling the equity someone is buying in it. The post names no company or people and does not identify the metric; it links to https://t.co/tgtjuur8H4.

On 2024-08-08, I replied to @nikhilkamathcio with a link, https://t.co/R2D4ep27i1. The captured reply shows no substantive text explaining the link or my view on company promoters selling shares.

The question about promoters selling belongs to @nikhilkamathcio, not to me. The capture includes the same timestamp, 2024-08-08 06:26 UTC, on two date-stamped entries, and does not establish whether the standalone repeat is a separate post or duplicate capture content.

The destination and intended meaning of my reply link, https://t.co/R2D4ep27i1, are not established by the capture; the quoted question’s link is https://t.co/BeuXK0XxTT.

On 2022-12-09, I asked what appetite retail investors would have for the next round of startup IPOs, noting that retail investors in startups had largely underperformed. I asked whether people buy what they know: Zomato had the highest amount of retail money, and I suggested that people ordering food more often than they engage with insurance, cars, or cosmetics might help explain that familiarity. I offered no forecast or supporting figures and linked to https://t.co/fTGETVrklA.
