Well, seeing that Net Income is ways lower than total assets since NI is rolled into equity, that's even worse. Their effective tax rate is probably closer to 1 or 2% then.

You know how to do math? 19 billion divided by 119billion. Doesn’t look like 1-2% to me. Around 16%

But that's not how ROI works so...
