Mike Novogratz Calls 2022 a ‘Formative Year’ As Galaxy Digital Reports $1 Billion Loss

Crypto investment firm Galaxy Digital missed analyst expectations with its Q4 and full-year 2022 results. The Toronto-listed company reported a net loss of $1bn for 2022 compared with a $1.7bn profit in 2021, and a $288m loss for Q4 2022. The company attributed the loss to unrealised marks to market on its investment portfolio. Analysts had estimated an average net revenue of CAD674m ($492m) for the financial year and CAD43m ($31m) for the quarter, but the firm achieved revenue of $419.4m. Counterparty trading volumes increased by about 19% in Q4 over the prior period, but decreased 65% YoY.

  • Trump team files complaint over Harris inheriting $96 million in Biden campaign funds

    According to reports from foreign media, the Trump campaign team has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission, claiming that Biden's transfer of $96 million in campaign funds to Harris is illegal. David Warrington, a lawyer for the Trump campaign team, said that this was a "shameless money-grabbing act" and would constitute the largest excessive donation and most serious violation in the history of the Federal Election Law. Shortly after Biden withdrew from the election and appointed Harris as his preferred successor, she took over Biden's campaign committee's bank account. Steve Roberts, a lawyer who represented Republican candidates, said that the argument against the transfer was a "wishful thinking" of his Republican colleagues. The Harris campaign team said that this complaint would not affect its fundraising or spending.
