AI Digital Age companies stop buying my shares once they go IPO and I buy 20% of their shares. I remember that we discussed similar issue a couple of months ago and you told that there is a restriction. Well... I own only 20% of them. This bar looks too low.

Telecom company does not buy any shares at all. Well... For now, when telecoms are just powerhouses that cannot be beaten, it is fine. But once it will be fixed, I think that this restriction should be dropped.

Attached is a screenshot of the stock holding from a save game from this post:

The company holding the stocks is a tech company that went IPO. You may download the save game if you are interested in reviewing it.

My guess is that the dev team do not want telecoms to be snapping up shares of other companies with its amble cash pile, which may seem unfair to the player.

-It allows you to create your own mutual fund or holding company like warren buffet from the start if that's all you want to do. This is not for everyone but others have stated an interest in this.

Note: This could just be an initial foundational feature they could add the ability to set up an mutual fund/asset management company in the future where you set up financial advisor branches to collect investment assets and charge a management fee for this service.

-It can also play an important part of running financial firms where banks and insurance companies should have the option to invest a portion of their funds in equities or bonds that the in game market might not be able to effectively absorb.

Insurance:

David is there any plans to create:
-A Global Bond Market?
-Mutual Fund Companies where you can setup something like Financial Advisory Branches to gather investor assets and charge ~1% AUM to manage the money?
