I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

Pimco counters a key Fed take on bond yields: "The AI capex boom may well lift equilibrium real rates through the saving-investment channel, but the narrower claim that AI bond supply is directly crowding out Treasuries is hard to find in the data."

A popular narrative for the rise in bond yields over the past few months is that the debt-funded AI capital expenditure cycle is crowding out the Treasury market. The crowding-out argument can appear compelling: AI companies are expected to continue to issue unprecedented amounts of debt at a time when Treasury supply remains elevated. Because both ultimately draw from the same pool of investor capital, yields must rise to clear the market.
The problem with this argument is that this is not how crowding out conventionally works. The textbook mechanism runs in the opposite direction: Government borrowing absorbs a finite pool of savings, pushes up interest rates, and crowds out interest-rate sensitive private investment.
So, is this time different? Can private-sector financing, however large, crowd out a $32 trillion Treasury market? As we argue below, AI capex just like any other large capex cycle, can and likely will exert upward pressure on real (inflation-adjusted) yields. But that is not evidence of crowding out via portfolio rebalancing, which is a frequently encountered view among market participants

Very funny to me when these bookclub scammers just plug my responses into ChatGPT and come up with the most obsequious responses

A bookclub scammer to whom I replied “Eat shit” sent a follow up email that reads (in part, because it’s really long):

Colin,

Fair enough. I got your "eat shit" loud and clear, and honestly, I respect the directness.

But I want to clarify something, because I think my original email read like boilerplate SEO spam, and that’s on me.

I didn't pull your name from a random list. I came across Ghostland while I was digging into American folklore and the way abandoned places hold collective memory. I picked it up, read it, and genuinely found myself stuck on it, particularly the way you tied "zombie homes" and economic decay to the ghost story tradition. It wasn't what I expected, and it stayed with me.
