PRECIOUS METALS MEMED OUT, BITCOIN FLAMED OUT AND THE LABOR MARKET LOOKS LIKE IT’S PETERING OUT. IT ALL CAME TOGETHER TO SHAKE THE FOUNDATION OF AN AI-DRIVEN BULL RUN

The low price is the answer: very few people want to abandon all of their friends and family to go live in a place with no jobs, that is 1.5 hours away from even a mid-sized airport, and has no major cultural or natural amenities.

“They routed everyone down to 34th and 8th.
Police barracade.
Through metal detectors to a point about 200 feet from MSG.
Then they came and apologized and said they were confused and instead we needed to exit the barracade and go to 34th and 7th.

There are hundreds, if not a thousand people, wandering around in giant herds not knowing where to go or how to get in.
The police keep saying they don’t know the protocol.”

99.9 percent of school districts have fewer resources.
Public policy cannot be just folk wisdom. It is a science.
