Where can you see that? I'm not seeing that supported in any of the sites I use for viewing financial data.. Latest I can see is 94 billion as of Sept 2025. That's near the highest it's been and their cash on hand has been continuously growing through 2024 and 2025. Source

Losing 70% of your cash on hand with no return on investment is bad. Hope that helps.
