Fidelity has again marked down the value of its shares in X Holdings, which the mutual fund giant helped Elon Musk buy for $44 billion when the company was known as Twitter.

By the numbers: Fidelity believes that X is worth 71.5% less than at the time of purchase, according to a new disclosure that runs through the end of November 2023 (Fidelity revalues private shares on a one-month lag).

      Well there’s a finite amount, unless they give it a big jump, then they could slash it repeatedly.

      I know you said years but the oldest link there looks like it’s late ‘22. Did you mean that one or longer than 13 months ago?

          😁 I thought about this when posting, but unlike numbers a company only has to devalue so much before it collapses. Like a stilt house and every day you remove 50% of each support beam, you’ll find the house crashes down before you have to worry about never hitting zero support beams.

        Can you uh, read?

        The very first result in that photo, from May, says that it was marked down three times already. This is number 4 at a minimum.
