This channel deserves to be so much bigger than it is. Saw this on my subscription feed and immediately clicked.

Staying private seems like a better option than public companies for the employees because it allows them to provide better benefits versus worrying about the bottom line and what the shareholders think. This is why they were voted top 100 company to work for.

One of the best made documentaries on YouTube. Keep up the great work.
@Finaius
Some real succession drama by the Johnson family that owns Fidelity. The daughter even tried to overthrow her father from the CEO position. Watch till the end to see if she was successful.

For those of us that still need our Succession fix. Real talk, these mini docs are excellent. I really look forward to watching all of them.
@sarimkamal5649
Nice move .... moving from people to companies. This will expand the range of topics on channels, and help with the overall broader perspective on economies.

In the context of Kaiser Steel in the 1980s, I don't think it was competition from China that was the issue - it was Japan. China did not come onto the steel export scene significantly until the 2000s, even having a trade DEFICIT with the United States in steel until the mid to late 2000s.
@jsunproter1940
I'm wondering if you put this entire video together on your own. The way it was all put together was just like something i watch on discovery. The clip editing, the way you told the story the sound clips was all done extremely well. Bravo sir! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the topic you chose. Important part of our history yet not well known. Great title also. Pulled me right in. I'm sure this took a lot of time on your part to put this together. Keep them coming if you can because I'll surely be watching.I've already subbed to your channel
@Finaius
Some pointed out that at 0:52, China couldn't be the reason the steel industry was facing pressure in the 70s. I was skeptical when researching too. But after reading the report published by the U.S. government at the time (https://books.google.com/books?id=lLG-RgUMYFUC ) , China was the 5th largest steel producer. But since it was coming out of the cultural revolution, the growth of the steel industry was faster than any other country, at an incredibly cheap cost. That is what created competitive pressure.

I really enjoyed this presentation on the background and history of Fidelity's roots. I've invested through Fidelity since the early 1990's...I remember Peter Lynch being their spokesperson on all marketing materials. I have found them to treat the "little guy" well over the years, allowing them to become one of the "big guys". They promoted investing in a true and steady fashion...focusing on the long term, rather than jumping on the latest temporary trend or newest financial gimmick.

Dude this is sick I love like corporate American history and I haven't found any other channels that talk about small events in broader corporate history cus these affect only such small things they're always relegated to the small footnotes. So thank you for bringing it out and for bringing it to life in such a captivating way. I can't wait wait even if the next video is like a year out it's well worth the wait.
@jebssan9
One takeaway here is how someone can hang on to power/monopoly of an empire. The Johnsons did a great job in this aspect.
@michaelnanayawansah
Your videos are incredibly well done. You make the financial history/documentary genre really come alive. Amazing storytelling and compelling visuals. Keep going bruv. You have my subscription ๐๐
@alexsteven.m6414
I appreciate your approach to teaching.. To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isnโt good enough, we just need to hold onto our hopes and wait to see how things turn out because market movements are almost always unpredictable. In my portfolio, I'm noticing more red than green and my retirement is edging closer by the day.
