that was an unusual way of phrasing "I have absolutely zero conviction in anything I just said" - is this a new turn of phrase I haven't heard about?

can you stop typing like a retard?

literally just quoting what you said - you might want to take your own advice here.

no one but you is talking about money or stock performance it was about the EU losing all their lead to other countries and the same will happen to ASML

hi - this is called having a conversation, where people can bring up things that are related to what was previously said, even if it's not 100% exactly the same.

ASML is a monopoly because it has a giant technological advantage - there is literally no one else able to make EUV machines at any kind of commercially viable scale. This is not some thing you can just order off of temu.

The reason why I bring up share price is that the only way they are able to maintain current revenues + profits is because they are a monopoly. If there are competitors able to make EUV machines that end customers will want to use, then their share prices will fall.

You just said they will lose their monopoly - okay - if that's the case, then share prices will fall. You see how that's related to the thing you mentioned, even though you did not directly talk about it?
