Thanks in part to Bill Gates, vaccines are ALREADY being produced at scale, as they await approval. Even the most rabid Windows-hating Mac lifer must admit that @BillGates is a hero in this fight.

Good on him.

"Survivorship bias tends to distort data in only one direction, by making the results seem better than they actually are. This is because fund closures are often a result of underperformance."

Contrarian alert: Color me skeptical that a major business publication is going to call a bubble on its cover in real time.

barrons.com/articles/the-m… Image
And yes, I spot the hedge in the way its phrased: "Its a bubble but it's not ready to pop" covers all bases.

Blow up? We told you it was a bubble!
Rally? We told you it was not ready to pop!

Not really sure what the value of this duality is to investors...
here is why: We ignore the simple reality that the future is inherently unknown, and unknowable.

Once when we start talking about Uncertainty, what we really mean is our confidence in our flawed models is fading. The optimism we usually shown cracks.

“U” and “V” and “L” and “W” shaped recoveries are meh, my favorite is the “Nike Swoosh” recovery – which may very well be a letter somewhere in the Milky Way galaxy, but here on earth represents instead the triumph of brand marketing rather than an alphanumeric example.

Describe 11th letter in the English alphabet to someone who's never seen it: It is distinguished by a bold vertical line, from the midpoint of which begins two rightward traversing lines, one slanting 45 degrees upwards from the horizontal, the other, 45 degrees downwards.
