@GerberKawasaki You don’t think @ryancohen could double cash flow at @ebay with all the AI automation tools (cut heads), make its listings/ inventory visible outside of its walled garden, and team up with wal-mart etc ?
@jimcramer@jimcramer@ryancohen is right on hidden value at @eBay — but who he partners with now in the approach will drive the board’s reaction to his offer
@ryancohen@ryancohen former leading equity analyst / I covered @eBay for years… when it was functional. I know the largest holders and can help. Pls reach out.
The valuation went 4× in 8 months:
$400B → $800B → $1.25T → $1.75T
Every step set by the same closed group of participants. Public markets will introduce something the private market never had: people actively betting the number is lower. The IPO will reveal the true valuation. Thoughts here: https://t.co/goxubHh7ZI
@jimcramer@jimcramer: @OrlandoBravoTB is an incredibly smart and ethical steward of capital. He is playing “time horizon arbitrage”
People forget that private equity owners of capex-light businesses can afford to wait … as can their LPs. and can buy big category winners at a discount.
@bensig@dotkrueger@grok what is the return on this strategy if bitcoin is flat and it costs 6% per year to borrow against the bitcoin to buy the necessary stablecoins?
@dotkrueger Curse of the DAT: unless the hoarded currencies appreciate and are expected to do so, they are valued like cash with an added risk of being trapped
… and minimal yield from vol selling
@ericjackson Respectfully, as a former highly ranked Internet analyst, you’re assuming any variation of that OPEN low end real estate flip business model makes sense in 2 or 3 years. Macro conditions are not favorable. So you’re saying Kaz is “that” good. Maybe.
@ecommerceshares OpenAI will end up with st least 20% share of (Google Search + Shopify/IG ads) + 10% of travel OTA revs + 30% of open web ads and TTD fees, plus the OpenAI sub revenues — equals at least $100bn revenues … when it reaches 2 billion users in around 3 years
