Great piece from Nathan!
Nathan Tankus@nathantankus.bsky.social · 7d agoNEW @crisesnotes.bsky.social PIECE: In this piece I critique a recent piece from @edzitron.com comparing the AI(LLM) boom to the "Subprime" Mortgage Crisis (and implicitly the GFC of 2007-2009). The ? is:"How big of a macrofinancial threat is the AI(LLM) Boom?" www.crisesnotes.com/sigh-no-ed-z...

I think not enough non-runners are noticing that Chinese branded running shoes, bought on aliexpress or Taobao, are now the highest quality and lowest price. This should be a story on Odd Lots (@weisenthal.bsky.social). Sports shoes aren't robot vacuum cleaners or whatever. They're culturally huge.

Bob is the best. Oil is getting all the attention right now, but the nat gas story may be the bigger one of our time for reasons going way beyond the events of the last few weeks.

The bezzle is shrinking. I’m curious to what extent the crypto crash is dragging down tech stocks as well.
this @tracyalloway.bsky.social @weisenthal.bsky.social Odd Lots piece with @heidirediker.bsky.social is fantastic Interesting that Tracy mentioned about their Dan Wang interview, necessity & central planning have some advantages. Biogas is another anecdote podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/o...

Geographically attractive rather than immediately economically attractive for oil companies is the broad conclusion of this Odd Lots podcast. Sanctions, blockades, infrastructure, high breakeven costs of heavy crude, geopolitical risks are all headaches. A lot is just Trump's personal whims.

This is a dream job and you should definitely apply for this and the only better job at Odd Lots would be as a writer for the 3 minute finance/economics George and Gracie style comedic dialog that opens each show.
