Does the Chief Justice have any personal interest in MSFT, AAPL or GOOG?

Inquiring minds want to know because there are certainly more pressing legal issues than AI that can have trouble with simple math.



At least not directly, as of the 2022 disclosure form. https://www.scotusblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Robert...


Sadly it looks like Supreme Court financial disclosure forms aren't particularly accurate representations of their conflicts of interest: https://www.propublica.org/series/supreme-court-scotus


Sure, wasn’t sure that even needed to be said at this point, but even so, this form was probably produced by a broker. Even if it does not cover things like this https://www.businessinsider.com/jane-roberts-chief-justice-w..., I think it was likely accurate as to his holdings in publicly traded stocks and index funds.


It's unfortunate these days that question needs to be asked, but with Clarence Thomas's shenanigans and the USSC's refusal to implement a code of conduct, here we are.



Better to distract people with other things than face the important work.
