5/5 Diversification across company names and diversification across investment themes aren't necessarily the same. Concentration risk means half the index is exposed to the AI theme. Half is not. The choice is not necessarily to go all-in on AI or all-in against it. It is
4/5 Concentration is only part of the story. Over the past year, the rolling 6-month correlation (green) has turned slightly negative. Another sign that the headline index conceals two different market experiences. https://t.co/HDiCAqPo3a
This is a funny tweet. Because do people actually associate @pmarca and Thiel with having been prescient about AI? The former I associate with b2b SaaS. The latter with kind of Silicon Valley woo ideas. With Elon it’s more complex, but Brian has a substantive point to make. 引用 @brianchau57:Bay Area
On the flipside, it’s not obvious to me that the doomers have better arguments. But they’re definitely better at arguing, having sharpened the blade on message board the last 15 years.
It would help if all their critics didn’t come off publicly sounding like this guy https://t.co/L6Xntz6Ge1 引用 @MattZeitlin:i still don't really understand how AI can cause human extinction BUT i do become more convinced the doomers/ASI-is-coming people are right when i read the arguments against th
And its standard fiscal advice would more or less result in a much bigger current account surplus -- i.e. it wants China to rely more on exports (think the advice used to be a 7 pp consolidation over 10ys, though that good downplayed for s-term cyclical reasons in the last A4)
The IMF's standard approach has a hard time with a country with massive savings and a public sector that has real assets as well as large debts -- by all of the IMF's standard models, China's large augmented fiscal deficit should have generated a current account deficit ...
Difficult for the fund to do but I hoped the fund would use this excellent paper to rethink its fiscal advice and move away from the augmented debt/ augmented deficit and treat the LGFVs as financial institutions that might give rise to a bailout cost not as ordinary government
But key points in the essay were asserted not demonstrated -- this one for example "As cheap imports undercut traditional producers and provide low-cost inputs, labour and capital have shifted towards more productive industries" what industries are expanding on a scale able to
FT's Tej Parikh really stretched the industrial production data here to fit into into a narrative around market competition, creative destruction and moving upmarket -- the rise in pharma production? Ireland winning a game of tax competition the rise in optical equipment? https://t.co/me7tctXCBy
I am sure this reads well and appeals to many "ango-saxon" readers (and certain circles on the continent) who are apostles of creative destruction and the migration of Western economies out of high end manufactures to services ... https://t.co/o8sFz6OCXu
But as policy advice and an honest assessment of the China challenge I found it a bit thin -- suck it up and move into higher value added niches doesn't cut it when China wants all those niches too, and has been quite successful in capturing many of them /end
Once again. The idea that AI is only improving rapidly in verifiable domains like math is looking suspect. 引用 @TheAtlantic:Exclusive: Another prestigious award has gone to a writer who seems to have used AI as the crisis of trust in the literary world intensifies, @vauhinivara reports: https://t.co
Well, so much for the notion that the "deal" that the Trump administration did with the UK after "Liberation day" would give the US a leg up over China in the UK market ... 引用 @johnarnold:The UK is a relatively open auto market, with just 10% import tariffs and no quotas on both US and Chinese impo
a) It is true that the CNY has never been so strong that Chinese exports systematically under-perform global trade b) that doesn't mean that the CNY doesn't have an impact on trade flows/ net exports -- China's surplus tends to expand when exports outperform global trade, while 引用 @BaldingsWorld:Th

Shower thought this AM: Some people developing AI seem to view building a “digital god” or ushering in a new species in almost religious terms. I believe some of that conviction is sincere. But I also suspect there’s a marketing angle to giving these systems an identity and
Power On: Apple spent a decade losing the smart home. Now it has a plan to compete: HomeView, a new Apple TV and HomePod mini, and LG-built accessories. Tuesday’s unveiling is about protecting the iPhone as much as outfitting your house. https://t.co/IeYYsXC1J2

The market is one big bet on AI based on hope for parabolic growth. That's a troubling situation when spending growth is looking increasingly linear. On @CNBCOvertime with @MelissaLeeCNBC yesterday to close out the week: https://t.co/1Btt8AHbPq
With domestic sales of ~ 20m (absent a new incentive program) it isn't clear if export demand alone and keep investment in the auto sector at its current, quite elevated levels -- looks like auto investment will be a drag on 27 growth, but I guess with China you never know 2/2
