Everything down..... Wtg btc

Can someone please break it down for me the main differences between the 1st wave and the 2nd wave? It sounds like the 2nd wave has a longer transition period until April 1st while the 1st wave only had 30 days? Just trying to be mentally prepared for what the 3rd wave would look like. Thank you all for your inputs. This forum has been more helpful and informational than any leader(s) could be.

I just want to know- if everyone thinks Belks is “going under” , what’s the point of the Belk’s rewards credit cards then? Why is there such a push to get them? If Belks falls the cards will be useless to anyone/everyone. So, why’s there a push for this if so many people think Belk’s is not doing so great? Do you think the credit cards will save a company from collapse?

Help me understand.

Where you at?

What happened to basic things like Networking?

How many layoffs can we expect as the result of the AkzoNobel merger? I know some are thinking this will not affect Axalta much but I'm worried. I don't know of many major mergers that were done without at least some cuts on both side, and usually it's much more than "some."
