great interview on IPOs, s&p 500 and passive investing:

the mega IPO playbook: low float. lots of forced buyers. price goes up. early investors cash out.

in mike green's words: "we created conditions for false demand through the overweighting of low float securities into the index... and we've turned the indices into monetization vehicles for large scale IPOs"

good morning to free cash flow enjoyers

Value stocks (+24%) are now outperforming Growth stocks (-6%) by over 30 percentage points in 2026.

If that holds, it would be a record spread, even wider than what occurred in 2000 when the Dot-Com Bubble burst.

Is this the beginning of a major shift in market leadership?

prepping is about to go mainstream…

too much doomerism on the timeline though

tech culture has fully dissolved into politics. full pvp, zero truth… only signal is in group chats

imo the point is to treat prepping as a stress test, maximize agency around risks you never had to worry about - but not get pulled into the doomer cult

tech culture has been lulled into a cult of optimism… the belief that the future will automatically be infinite and better than today.

that humans no longer need to build resilience because machines will do everything for them. it’s just a more sophisticated way of saying the future is movie you sit back and watch, as thiel would describe it.

pointing out clear and present risks makes you a doomer or a prepper.

when a culture starts weaponizing stigma against anyone questioning the consensus, that’s usually how you know the trend is peaking.

I like to think probabilistically but it’s very hard to bet on a team that believes “it’ll sort itself out”.

i’m officially team prepper - where are my fellow off-grid-farm-and-starlink-maxxers??
