        Nah, that’s regular English. Plain sometimes hard to read English.

        random guess, but: "11x” is the name of the company, that’s not “eleven times”

          You are correct, and a company with this kind of name should NOT have its name reported in the headline because it’s confusing and not well-known enough to avoid that confusion.

          Substitute that for “AI start-up” and the headline is immediately more clear
