Equity Bottom-Up

NY Attorney General Letitia James filed an anti-trust lawsuit against <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/facebook-inc-a" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:665:1" rel="noopener">Facebook Inc A (FB US)</a> which is co-sponsored by Federal Trade Commission and 46 US states. This is not dissimilar to historical legal anti-trust challenges to break up big companies such as Microsoft and AT&amp;T.  While we believe this is unlikely to be resolved soon, we believe Facebook and Big Tech have drawn bipartisan ire due to concerns about anti-competitive behaviour and the spread of disinformation. Our thoughts on the litigation as well as operational concerns are below the fold.
