It's going down the toilet bowl now for sure. I think their stock hit continues to rise as they were at a $6.5B loss as of yesterday or the day before. 

Not sure how much it really matters though if they're primarily backed by one of the world's, if not, the world's largest asset group in Blackrock. Blackrock has over $10T in assets. They have more money behind them than most countries do at the moment. 

In the grand scheme of things, Budweiser could fall off a cliff tomorrow and Blackrock won't skip a beat. They'll just flip their assets over to a new brand and company and allow them to use their old facilities, equipment, etc. 

It's pretty interesting and disturbing. They can push any narrative they want behind the scenes and still make out on top by playing both sides. While it's encouraging to see a lot of people voting with their dollars, it's also disheartening to see a ton of hardworking people potentially losing their jobs.
