The sheer number of people that won't get the homophone. This is the way.

Basically if number goes up, then that doesn't really effect your company's finances and they cannot afford a pay rise. If number goes down, they're sorry but they need to lay you off.

It's a stock market index, which roughly shows if the market is going up or down.

In reality it's more like a casino roulette where everyone is betting based on previous wins.

Christians: "This war, waged by Christians after a vote won by Christians, isn't what Christianity really is! It's actually how I interpret the good parts of the Bible."

Basically, it's based on the value of a bunch of big, publicly traded companies. The whole "when the markets go up it means more economy" thing is an oversimplification, but it kinda works in that when things break profits go down, and so does the value of shares in ownership of them.

Except you definitely win over the long term instead of definitely losing, because Meta is a real company that gets real money off of it's customers.
