What's this?

I don't know but I'm intrigued by that movie,


I have not seen it, but would like to. All about Edison and Westinghouse and apparently JP Morgan (the man) played a role as a major stakeholder for both companies leading to a lot of controversy and politicking. Covers when alternating current came to be utilized and all kinds of stuff. Very historical. @Chris Coleman would probably like it. As usual, I'm guessing the book was better than the movie.

Apparently, by most all accounts, TA Edison was a major a-hole.

But anyways, his stock is getting close to a double up for me :) Didn't buy as much as I should have, but so far it's as close to calling a bottom as I've ever gotten. Yes, humble brag, hurt my arm patting myself on the back,... all that.
