    Probably because they realise that all the companies that ditched DEI have been doing significantly worse. Almost like it’s something people want.

        I’ve been watching the stock market since the inauguration and companies like Target have been dropping significantly faster than companies like Costco that didn’t roll it back. It’s all going down, but the anti-dei ones are going faster.

        Edit: just looked and Costco is down 8% in the last 3 months while Target is down 20%.

          I just compared Costco which didn’t roll back vs Target that did. In the last 3 months Costco is down 8% and Target is down 20%
