With the rise of Muse and its ilk, the last thing I would want to do is write a subscription newsletter. Oh, wait! (A little $GFL and $OKLO, too!) www.herbgreenberg.com/p/the-wrap-s...

The thing with @moonalice.com is that 1) he's not selling anything, 2) he has more legacy/history here than most, 3) all of which means he can speak his mind w/o fear of recourse.

I'm involved in a renovation, and prices on virtually everything are beyond insane - tariffs for non-US, labor for US. And by all accounts, they're not about to be rolled back.

From the story on the left: "The proposed structure reflects a shift under way in how the largest AI build-outs are being financed." To which I say: Build-outs... or BAIL-OUTS?

So many questions, so few answers. From the irrational extrapolation of Tech over Energy, to data center as the new shale, to Schwab tightening margin rules, to a sudden boom for real estate escrow agents. www.herbgreenberg.com/p/the-wrap-t...

With the surge in mega IPOs while "the window is open," my mind harkens back to the oldest saying of all on Wall Street, which is as true now as it ever was: When the ducks are quacking, feed the ducks!

Just calling itself a “compounder” doesn’t mean a company really is. And $ESAB isn’t, certainly not yet, even though it claims it is. www.herbgreenberg.com/p/red-flag-a...

It's official, with $CAR and $BIRD, we're officially back in 2021... or almost. The only thing missing is $GME, but if all goes according to plan, the prediction markets should be starting a pool, just about now.
