Celebrities That Lost Companies Billions Of Dollars In Seconds

Welcome back, Richest fans! Celebrities seemingly have a lot of power in the world of business and finance. With a simple gesture or comment on social media, a famous face can cost a company billions of dollars as their millions of followers take notice. Today, we’re going to look at the times celebs wiped mountains of cash from a company’s value within seconds. Including the recent event at Euro 2020 with Cristiano Ronaldo. We also have in the video moments involving LeBron James, Elon Musk, Kylie Jenner, and more!
Now for the spoiler paragraph. If you like surprises, we suggest you stop reading and watch the video multiple times. Firstly, we have Ronaldo and how moving a soft drink bottle cost Coca Cola a fortune. We’ll even see Paul Pogba do something similar at Euro 2020. We then have Elon Musk who has a habit of manipulating the value of firms with a simple tweet. This time, it was Tesla’s stock that took the plunge. We then have Kylie Jenner and her message that badly injured Snapchat’s value. LeBron James issued a public cry for help when his Samsung phone deleted everything. Unfortunately, he was a spokesperson for the company. We have the recent comment by journalist Sucheta Dalal that made the Adani Group take a massive hit. There’s then former president of the US Donald Trump. In a couple of tweets, he nosedived the value of Lockheed-Martin and another plane company. Finally, we’ll briefly look at Wall Street with one of the biggest stock market crashes of all time.

A change in market value does not impact the firm's financial statements. A drop in a stock price does not cause a company to "lose money." The company doesn't even own the shares, that's the whole point selling shares to investors via an Initial Public Offering. The correct headline is "Celebrities That Lost Shareholders Billions of Dollars In Unrealized Losses in Seconds."

[@mikaelkortbaoui8785]

Uh yeah businesses own shares, sometimes they do buybacks so they own a larger amount of their shares

[@deep6627]

Ronaldo didn't actually cause the company to lose in share market value. Coca cola shares became ex dividend on the day his press conference occured. That's why the company share value decreased.

[@Taha-dt5xk]

Yeah infact it made the share price increase after that incident

There was a lady in rural Papua New Guinea, only 3 days ago, she had delivered her baby in the bush, with one lone bush doctor available. She bled for 12 hours, the only reason she survived was because the Bush doctor had a can of coke, and he gave her sips to keep her blood sugar high so she wouldnt die. The coke managed to save her life and she was eventually airlifted to a proper hospital. Thank you coke for saving my sister.

[@aditibohara4289]

While coke may be not that harmful for us to drink occasionally, Ronaldo is a sportsman he needs to take care of his calories diet and remain fit (by fit I mean very very fit to play some biggest football games which we regular people don't need to take care about) so him being against drinking Coca-Cola is reasonable. Even us regular people must stop drinking too much soft drinks.

Coke drop wasn't due to that clip. The entire market fluctuates anyway based off so many variables, so not fragile at all. It went on to rise after he said it and was a great ad for them as it went viral. It would be weird for shareholders to sell their shares based off something so insignificant

Coca Colas shares already started dropping before the press conference even started, so Ronaldos stunt wasn't the reason for the drop.

[@himanshudangwal9342]

Actually ronaldo help coca cola by increasing value of their share , yes it's true when Ronaldo move coke bottles just 2-3 min before this share market was open and it was open with a 4 billion dollars loss , and when Ronaldo moves coke bottles price of share was increased, if you don't believe me u can check time when he move the bottles and share market opening time their is a little differnt.....
