🧵 When interest rates are too high to borrow freely against (approaching CPI*) , and when inventory returns(**), the tide will drop very fast. Demand and consumer confidence will crater quickly and spending/hiring/investing will change rapidly. The wobble we are seeing right now is credit tightening…so the Money Printer merry go round is slowing down from BRRRRR to BRRRrr. This means that *top level* people can still borrow cheaply but lower tier credit offers are now approaching 8-15% which is ~par with inflation.

Shoulda just bought some regular dealerships that actually make money instead of trying to bring moronic vending machines to the car biz. $CVNA / Carvana = rekt.- down 87% in last 6 months. fortune.com/2022/05/06/sto… Whoopsies. This is what happens when you cannot deliver license plates, registrations, and overpay 10-20% for cars because “you really need inventory”. The car business is really hard guys. Should have invested in good operators. Image

The “Removing Freedoms” train has left the station and has no brakes. Privacy, property rights, personal spending, communication and education are all targets of that train- like it or not. oddly enough, physical relocation is one of the few choices that will impact your relationship to the Removing Freedoms Train…get yourself off the tracks!
