META Logo (Facebook) and Moscow Stock Exchange Logo

[Gunnar Larson]

By the way, interesting to point out that Harvard Management
Company's fourth largest holding is Meta, (FB), accounting for 11.75% of
the Harvard Management Company portfolio:

Whatever the case may be, it is not xNY.io's fault that Meta's logo
basically is a replica of the Moscow Stock Exchange logo. With all the
money on the planet, this is probably one of the worst branding decisions
of modern time. Again, not xNY.io's problem ...
