The Supreme Court cleared the company in a lawsuit over its liability for potential cancer risks in the pesticide Roundup.
Roundup was developed by Monsanto before it was acquired by Bayer.
That acquisition has since cost Bayer billions of dollars and thousands of lawsuits.
The court's ruling shot down the most effective argument attorneys have made against Bayer, that it failed to warn users of its potential cancer risks.
Bayer argued that the product met government standards.
Bayer now has the opportunity to separate its agriculture side of the business from its pharmaceutical side, a change that investors have pushed for for years.

And I think it took me a little while to realize when I got older, like, oh, shit, the movies are just, that's not really real life.
That's not really how things work.
And maybe there is just this kind of slow awakening of like, yeah, I guess everything I've been told isn't necessarily how it's supposed to be or how it goes.
And then it's kind of that awkwardness of you sort of then finding out what is important to you or what your values are, what your morals are, what kind of person you want to be.
Wow, how clever of you.
Here we go.
It was a long time ago.
It was in, I feel like it might have been 2000.
