Today, the actual size of the silver market is, according to Bloomberg, of $5 trillion.
$5 trillion divided by 20 billion (physical market) = 250
250 X $20 (silver spot price) = $5,000 an ounce

Every train(strategy) has limited seats for its passengers to enjoy the journey (performance) unless the TT (fund manager) decides to cash in as many tickets as he can and is apathetic towards reduction of the performance like our most popular mutual fund (U know which) !!\U0001f920 pic.twitter.com/febeE3YeeZ

🔎 $RTP/@hippo_insurance: SaaS harnessing AI to revolutionize the home insurance industry 🦛🏠
- Everything you need to know
- One-stop-shop for all things smart/connected home
- Higher growth & revenue than closest public competitor $LMND/@Lemonade_Inc
Time for a thread 🧵⬇️
Hippo was founded in 2015 by Assaf Wand, an ex-McKinsey consultant and Eyal Navon, serial entreprenuer and software engineer.
Wand's interest in insurance was inspired by his father's lengthy career in the "antiquated" insurance industry. $RTP
After two years of R&D, fundraising, and product development, Hippo launched in April 2017 in California.
The company's marketing was centered on the delivery of a 60-sec quote for insurance policies, transparent process, and smart home integration.
https://t.co/msy9u2ZpST $RTP
By March 2019, with Hippo insurance available to more than 50% of the homeowners in the US, the company reported a 25% month-over-month sales growth and total insured property value of more than $50 billion, with a 93% customer retention rate.

Hippo is going after a slightly different market. Most of the new insurance companies have pitched services to renters and city dwellers made up of the mostly millennial demographic, while Hippo is aiming its services squarely at homeowners. $RTP

1/OK, data mystery time.
This New York Times feature shows China with a Gini Index of less than 30, which would make it more equal than Canada, France, or the Netherlands. https://t.co/g3Sv6DZTDE
That's weird. Income inequality in China is legendary.
Let's check this number.
2/The New York Times cites the World Bank's recent report, "Fair Progress? Economic Mobility across Generations Around the World".
The report is available here:
3/The World Bank report has a graph in which it appears to show the same value for China's Gini - under 0.3.
The graph cites the World Development Indicators as its source for the income inequality data.
4/The World Development Indicators are available at the World Bank's website.
Here's the Gini index: https://t.co/MvylQzpX6A
It looks as if the latest estimate for China's Gini is 42.2.
That estimate is from 2012.
5/A Gini of 42.2 would put China in the same neighborhood as the U.S., whose Gini was estimated at 41 in 2013.
I can't find the <30 number anywhere. The only other estimate in the tables for China is from 2008, when it was estimated at 42.8.
