When Anthropic goes public the real big move will be to purchase $AMZN
The IPO likely pro-longs any tech market correction for quite a while too and gives them the cash to continue infra spend
@FromValue His concerns about US debt are valid and will come to fruition, just much longer than he expects it to since people will ignore the issue as long as possible, but probably won’t be useful in terms of any stock picking as earnings ramp up post AI capex accel
@Tim_Denning Whatever you have to tell yourself to cope.
Truth is you got to be a real killer to succeed at that level in corporate. Little internet dweeb couldn’t get to a Fortune 500 CEO role
@sonofthecobra@ThomBrady5 Yes but in order for your communist ideals to work you have to pretend like these things don’t exist, assume the economy works in a magical vacuum & also have a delusional understanding of human incentive
@veryfineppl@PlisskenPatriot Does calling people faggots make it easier for you to cope with the fact you’re an extremely unimpressive human being,

Also brand is the weakest out of all moats relative to switching costs, extremely high capital required, network effects, etc
@ReubenR80027912 Someone as smart as you shouldn’t be naive enough to not take what Sam says with a pinch of salt.
His job is to be a salesman and saying stuff like this will make it easier to continue raising capital at higher valuations while taking massive loss in the billions per year
I get the feeling that we’ve had it too good for too long and there are certainly names that will after getting out over their skis but jeez Louise the bottoms up S&P 500 EPS is expected to grow 20% this year, at the index level this price action this year is just earnings growth with no multiple expansion.
