>>Except it says Dividend!

A ‘dividend’ is just ‘A quantity to be divided.’ *by definition* -

why are you picking a single alternative definition, that doesn’t apply here and getting upset about it?

Because it is a financial institution and in finance it has a specific meaning.

If we were taking in a math class I would agree with you but we are not.

In case you missed it the CEO of SVB sold off over 3.5 million in stocks over the last 2 weeks and there are growing calls for a total bail out.

SVB serviced something like 44% of the venture capitalists in tech and healthcare.

Are you so sure they just mean dividing up the assets?
