Question! @jc-econ.bsky.social @peark.es (et al) How do we square the this-is-a-real-yield-driven jump higher in bond yields argument, with the T-note's yield correlation to oil prices? (Nice FT chart) Isn't some inflation be embedded in there somewhere? Why doesn't it show up in breakevens?

The U.S. Department of Defense now has an equity stake in Venezuela's second-largest private oil producer? I did not know this ... per a great Goldman Sachs note.

Decades later Intel shares are back to dotcom boom levels. But the crazy thing is the forward PE for the stock, far higher than during the craziest moments of 1990s. I was pretty stunned by this.

Insane dive from profitability into the red for the former cash cow known as Oracle. The stock is up about 9% today after FQ3 report. Just dunno, how you look at this and feel any confidence in the ROI of the AI data center business.

Per Goldman, 70% of S&P 500 companies are mentioning AI on Q4 earnings calls. But just 1% are quantifying the technology’s impact on earnings. That gap underscores why people have gotten a bit jittery about the ROI on the hundreds of billions hyperscalers are spending on data centers.

Can’t stand this, “People on the right shouldn’t support the Trump administration’s effort to suppress free speech because eventually it’ll be used by leftists against them!” What about: It’s wrong. This is a free country. Americans have a right to criticize the government and the president.
