@tracyalloway@wintonARK In case there's any doubt about how much power Cathie Wood and ARK have right now.

@tracyalloway@wintonARK Among the things we discussed in the episode. Why they're so bullish on $TSLA but also why they're skeptical of the boom in fuel cell stocks lately.
@tracyalloway@wintonARK Good thread here on the episode, and yes, apart from any sector views, this was actually the most interesting aspect of the discussion. Brett's criticism of traditional institutional research departments and the blindspots it creates
In today's @markets newsletter, I wrote about how almost a year into this crisis, the strength of the US economy continues to be underestimated by economists and analysts
@markets Here's the larger version of the Citi Surprise Chart. You can see. There's just nothing comparable in the last decade to the duration and scale of the data beats.
@markets Here's Goldman, from this past weekend, on how earnings are above pre-pandemic levels, while just clobbering expectations, even at this stage of the game.
THIS IS THE MOST INTERESTING MOMENT FOR THE ECONOMY I'VE SEEN IN MY CAREER
In today's @markets newsletter, I wrote about how this is the first time in my career, it's seemed like there was potential for the economy to go in a new trajectory bloomberg.com/account/newsle…
@markets Between the actual economic conditions on the ground, the emerging political consensus, and the shift in the intellectual debate over the last decade, this is the first time it's felt like there's potential to break out of the long rut of slow growth, low rates etc.
BREAKING: Bitcoin soaring more after $TSLA announces that it's bought $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin and that it will likely, at some point, accept Bitcoin as payment for cars. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
I almost put a line in here this morning about how the only people that really have garnered a ton of trust these days are Elon & Cathie & Chamath & Satoshi
@Noahpinion Hyperinflation results from some kind of regime change, societal disruption, war, government legitimacy collapse etc.
That could happen in the US at some point! Government stability isn't looking great these days. But it's a very separate thing than debt or deficit levels.
Of course it's going to be tough to model when people lose faith in the US government. But it doesn't imply, from that, that debt/deficit levels are going to be a useful guide to when that is.
And in the meantime, worrying about "the debt' is likely to lead to bad policy.
