Chris Camillo explains why Pokémon cards might keep going up for decades “I’ve always believed that Pokémon and an IP similar to Pokémon for a collector is where it’s at” “Unlike other collectibles, it’s not set in a period of time where you have a peak where the people...

TCG expert explains why you should fully AVOID the modern Pokémon market “Do NOT dabble into the modern Pokémon market, they print 100s of thousands of copies of these cards and they are going for thousands of dollars right off the gate” “If you think that is a smart place to put your money I have no words for you other then “if you wanna swing trade it then swing trade it and try to extract as much as you can, but if you think this is a good investment in the short term SELL them all”

Threadguy explains why he's getting bullish on robotics “I got pretty excited because I think there is infinite demand for robotics exposure and there’s no real way to get it, at least at the moment. There’s a robotics bottleneck” “Andrew Kang said this thing on stream that really got me excited. The market cap for all Pokémon cards is $50B. The market cap for all of these robotics companies, not counting Tesla Optimus but other companies like Figure is $200B” “Only 4x the market cap of Pokémon cards doesn't sound right”

“When people were saying in the testimony, that the hope they have is that what happened here 30 something years ago will never happen again. It won’t, not because those who were responsible for that dark past will not try again or are not even trying now again. It will not happen again just because there will be people who will stand up and fight. It’s not because there are fewer people who wish for us to perish or who would have wished for this country to disappear. How can people accept that? What kind of people do not stand up and fight? There is a risk of dying when you stand up and fight but if you don’t, it’s a sure thing: you are going to die. So why don’t I try to stand up and fight with the chance that I might survive and live life as I want it, instead of giving up and you let people treat you as if for you to live, it is a favour that they are going to do for you. Why? But my message goes to other Africans who live like this on a daily basis, who are dehumanized and they accept it and they beg. I can't beg to live. I can't beg anybody. We’ll fight, If I lose, I lose. But there is a chance. There is a chance, a significant chance, that if you stand up and fight, you will live. And you will have lived a dignified life that you deserve, that anybody else deserves." President Kagame | #Kwibuka31

Marc Andreessen on the 3 things he looks for when investing in a startup The first thing Marc Andreesen looks for is a big market: “Is there a big existing market that you think you can go after and displace incumbents? Or do you believe there will be a new market that will be big?” The second thing he looks for is a 10x better product: “Is there a fundamental technology or economic change that justifies a new company? And the way I always think about that is: Is there a 10x change happening in the technology landscape? Is something 10x faster, 10x cheaper, or 10x better? If it’s not 10x, we as both VCs and entrepreneurs have to ask ourselves if it’s really worth doing because it’s really hard to start new companies . . . Existing companies are usually pretty good at what they do. So for a new company to exist, it has to bring a product to market that’s so much better than what exists that it punches through the status quo.” The third is the team: “Is the team outstanding? . . . You want to have a founding team of complementary skillsets. You want to have at least one super strong technologist — quite possibly more than one. Some of the best startups are actually more than one founding technologist. And then it often helps to have someone who is a marketing or salesperson who has a really good understanding of business.” Marc believes that you need all three of these, but if you’re going to compromise on one of those as an investor, it should be the product: “A great market is a lot easier to make up for with iterative product execution. The problem with a poor or small market is that even if you do a good job on the product, there just aren’t that many customers so it’s hard to ever get big and people get demoralized . . . And then we evaluate the team of a startup by its ability to get into a big market with a good product.”

Cheryl Reeve on what they identified in scouting to see Olivia Miles as one of the two players that the Lynx identified having a “generational skill” “What I said on draft night is that there were two players that had generational skills, I would now classify her(Miles) as a generational talent… I think it’s really easy to identify great passing because there’s not a lot of players that are great at it so instinctually so. And then with Azzi(Fudd) the quick release her actions and scoring the basketball, you know, incredibly valuable… I think in the scouting process when you can repeat something over and over and over again and has been doing so in Livs case for a long time, it’s just a matter of can you figure out the pro game in terms of pace and physicality and all the stuff that goes with it, and that’s the part you don’t know… we thought for sure she’d be a really good back up point guard(laughing)”

Sam Altman: “One of the few arbitrage opportunities left in the market is time” “I don’t think you can beat the market in a lot of ways, but the one way I do is by making a long-term commitment to something. My new belief on how long I should hold stock in the best companies I invest in is forever. And I think in a world where people are increasingly focused on the tick and the quarterly earnings cycle, you should try to go in the other direction. This is a great way to generate value and wealth.” Sam continues: “And so I think that when you’re thinking about a startup, it’s really worthwhile to think about something you’re willing to make a very long-term commitment to because that is where the current void in the market is. You get paid as a founder for the wealth you create for other people… The best companies just create massive amounts of value for the world, and then they capture some of that for themselves. But they capture far less than they create, and they do it over a very long period of time. So if you’re going to be one of those companies, I think you want to make a super long-term commitment to yourself and others that are going to work on it with you… It is worth waiting because you will make far more money over the long term by doing this company really well than a bunch of short term things along the way.” Video source: Y Combinator (2016)

$ABCL CEO Carl Hansen explains the net negative overall value creation in biotech and how AbCellera plans to beat it: “I really think it can be beat because there’s a lot of mistakes that get made in where you allocate capital.” “If you’re a biotech and you start a company on a drug, and you go public and have a drug, and now the data is looking not that great, you just keep running that drug. … Because if you quit that drug, the company is done.” “So, because you’re so concentrated on one thing, you end up having blinders. It’s like a cult of a molecule. And even a real, practical, capital access problem that makes you continue to move things forward” ______________________________________ “Another problem is that many of the drugs that get started, get started by people who don’t understand the competitive or commercial landscape and have no intent of ever actually manufacturing it. … Because they know someone else is going to buy it. So then their framework is not ‘Am I making a drug that’s going to make a difference for people?’ The framework is ‘Can I make something that I think someone will take off my hands?’ And that happens a lot.” “There are many acquisitions where a big pharma company spends $10B, $20B, and it’s a complete bust. So really no value is generated for patients but someone was able to get a good exit on that because they anticipated what someone would want. And a lot of decision making gets done like that”. _______________________________________ “I’m not saying that we have this all solved. But what we’re trying to do is create a framework where we are able to take many bets so that we don’t fall in love with anything, or we don’t have to fall in love with anything. … And then always hold up very explicitly what we know and what we don’t know along the dimensions that matter. The dimensions that matter are - Will it work? That’s a science. - When it gets where will people care? - Is it differentiated? - Does it solve a big problem? In order to get it there, is there a path with our resources and expertise that would allow us to see it through?” “When you start to hold things up like that, you start to see where the mistakes are, where the uncertainties are, and you can be more rational in deciding ‘We’re going to run it to here because we get to flip the card and if the card goes the wrong way we’re going to kill it because we’ve got something else behind it.’” “I do think that if done right, and if you can pick the right opportunities, the success rate can be well higher than an order of magnitude better. … And there are examples of this… companies I’ve mentioned, you know, Regeneron, their success rate is at least 10x the industry in bringing programs forward and getting them approved. … So it’s… you can do it better that way”

🚨If the US🇺🇸 thinks Venezuela🇻🇪 will be an easy target, it’s in for a BIG SURPRISE- Venezuela’s Former Deputy Foreign Minister for North America ‘As long as we have oil wealth and other mineral wealth, Venezuela is always going to be a target of the United States, of large multinational corporations, etc. I understand the United States has military superiority…but to think that Venezuela is an easy target, that Venezuela is someplace that you can come in and just take over, you’re up for a surprise. I think there’s a long history here of resistance, of morale to resist attacks. I think we have seen also the tragic sort of interventions that the United States has done even in recent years. I mean, you could go back to Vietnam and remember how tragic that was. But even Afghanistan, Iraq, all these more recent interventions have shown that if you don’t have the support of local populations, if there isn’t some sort of other arrangement, you’re not going to be successful. I mean, after 20 years of the disaster they caused in Afghanistan, they had to leave without accomplishing anything. That’s horrible for our people in the sense that, of course, if something like that comes to happen, and I really wish that it doesn’t come to happen — it’s going to be hurtful for the Venezuelan people. But I think they have to think twice about what really is at stake and how this is going to affect the stability of the United States. We’re not hundreds or thousands of miles away. We’re really close to the United States. And it could have a terrible effect for its economy, even for its own base. I mean, if you look at the base that supports President Trump right now, a lot of the criticism that is coming is precisely from its own base, who were promised that there would be no more forever wars.’ -Carlos Ron on the latest episode of Going Underground FULL INTERVIEW BELOW IN THE REPLIES👇

🚨Former Israeli Peace Negotiator Daniel Levy: ‘Israel is on a SUGAR HIGH of death and destruction, it’s not clear to me Zionism can RE-INVENT itself.’ ‘America may be feeling less pain, but America’s threshold for pain, certainly when it’s economic and it translates into political, is significantly less than it is for others. And this is where this question of how Netanyahu will respond is where it looks like many of us maybe used to watch cartoons, where the cartoon character goes off the edge of a cliff and then they stay in motion until they look down and then they’ve got nowhere to go, they can’t go back. And it feels like Israel may be going on that journey, that it has simply gone too far. The question for many is, well, why isn’t there an establishment inside Israel that’s stopping this? And that’s why I’ve tried to suggest that it’s not just Netanyahu, the country has gone off on this sugar high of death and destruction, that all that, all that was built up for decades has now come into play.’ Afshin Rattansi: ‘So would it unilaterally attack even after Trump saying no?’ Levy: ‘This is where you bump into the reality that America has tremendous leverage over Israel. And so I think if America wants this to stop, just as it has in Lebanon said enough. Although Israel is still physically inside Lebanese territory, it’s still ceasefire Israeli-style, which means you still kill the other side. But I think if America says stop, then Israel stops. But the question is, has Israel given itself an alternative path to pursue, or are we seeing that actual existing Zionism as practised by the State of Israel has nowhere to go now? And either you radically rethink what is the future for the Israeli Jewish community, not in a regime of an ethnostate, but as some kind of normal way of interacting with those in its midst. That is a very different future. And, it’s not clear to me that the project, the Zionist project, can reinvent itself.’ Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇

AOC: I think it’s pretty unbelievable that Gaza would not be mentioned once in the autopsy report. I think it was very clearly a major dynamic and a major thread that was happening in 2024. The fact that it’s not even addressed, I think, is a major oversight. And I think that for young people, it was a huge part of the environment. I can tell you for myself as a candidate during that cycle, there’s no way that it was an ignorable issue or totally immaterial. So I think that it’s a real disservice to not speak to that or include or assess that.

Qullamaggie on Feeling Like a Genius, It's The Market Not You “A melt-up market is when everything is going straight up. And it becomes too easy to make money. You start feeling like a genius — that’s a melt-up market. Trust me, you are not a genius. None of you. It’s the market, not you. No, it’s true. It’s true. Most of my money has come from periods when the market is really good. You just have to line your trading with a period where the market is really good. You know, you gotta be aggressive when the market is really good. Your job is to identify good setups in a good market — and then let the market take care of the rest. Too many people think they are the shit just because they’re making a lot of money. But that’s not really true. It’s the market, not you.”

Why are so many young people single these days? Pooja Arora (Pooja Arora): So my last question: I wanted to talk about why people are single nowadays. I would have asked about human nature, but that’s for another day. I sent you an article—how do you think common knowledge fits into that area? Why do you think so many youngsters are single? Me: Yes, it’s a good question. I’m not sure that common knowledge is an important part of the answer, but some of it is that women no longer depend on the economic contributions of men for their livelihood, as was true, say, in my mother’s era, when women were not professionally trained. To pay the rent, they had to be married. Now, not only are women better educated, but the economy has shifted to favor the kinds of skills that women, as opposed to men, have. And just as women have been rising, men have been sinking because of the decline in blue-collar work. There have also been cultural trends that favor women’s temperaments. Men have been distracted by internet gaming, gambling, and pornography and are less desirable as marriage partners. Women with more economic power are more likely to raise their standards for what they want in a man. In my parents’ generation, it was not uncommon for a woman to marry a man with much less education and, sometimes, less intelligence. This was not unusual among my parents’ friends. The men often had a high school degree and then went immediately into a small business—sometimes a family business, sometimes one he started himself. The criterion was: does he make a living? No one cared about education. That has changed, with the result that there are fewer men who satisfy the criteria women now have. This was mentioned in the article you shared with me. Also, with more sexual freedom, people don’t have to get married simply to have sex, which was again true in my parents’ generation. There’s a process that has been in place since the baby boomers and has accelerated among millennials and Generation Z. For other reasons, I think a generation of men may also be incapable of socially skilled interaction, partly because they’ve grown up with screens instead of face-to-face contact. There is some fear that a sexual encounter could result in an accusation of rape or sexual harassment. There is so much pornography that, for an increasing number of men, it serves as an outlet for what in the past would have required actual human contact. There are many factors. The article from The Economist lists them, I think, quite skillfully. It’s not clear how to reverse the trend. Increasing the economic prospects of men and creating an educational system that is less feminized and more encouraging of male achievement might help. Another could be changing norms—and here common knowledge comes in. Among women, is it a sign of low status to be with a man who has less education than you? Men, from time immemorial, have been happy to marry women with less education than themselves. Women don't. That immediately reduces the marriage pool. Maybe that’s a norm that could change. Go back to the norm in my parents’ generation? Pooja Arora: No, let’s not do that. Me: Okay, let's not do that. Pooja Arora: We’re happy to marry men who are not as educated as us. It’s fine. They just have to be nice and kind at this point in time. Me: Well, yes—exactly. Nice and kind.

Why are so many young people single these days? Pooja Arora (Pooja Arora): So my last question: I wanted to talk about why people are single nowadays. I would have asked about human nature, but that’s for another day. I sent you an article—how do you think common knowledge fits into that area? Why do you think so many youngsters are single? Me: Yes, it’s a good question. I’m not sure that common knowledge is an important part of the answer, but some of it is that women no longer depend on the economic contributions of men for their livelihood, as was true, say, in my mother’s era, when women were not professionally trained. To pay the rent, they had to be married. Now, not only are women better educated, but the economy has shifted to favor the kinds of skills that women, as opposed to men, have. And just as women have been rising, men have been sinking because of the decline in blue-collar work. There have also been cultural trends that favor women’s temperaments. Men have been distracted by internet gaming, gambling, and pornography and are less desirable as marriage partners. Women with more economic power are more likely to raise their standards for what they want in a man. In my parents’ generation, it was not uncommon for a woman to marry a man with much less education and, sometimes, less intelligence. This was not unusual among my parents’ friends. The men often had a high school degree and then went immediately into a small business—sometimes a family business, sometimes one he started himself. The criterion was: does he make a living? No one cared about education. That has changed, with the result that there are fewer men who satisfy the criteria women now have. This was mentioned in the article you shared with me. Also, with more sexual freedom, people don’t have to get married simply to have sex, which was again true in my parents’ generation. There’s a process that has been in place since the baby boomers and has accelerated among millennials and Generation Z. For other reasons, I think a generation of men may also be incapable of socially skilled interaction, partly because they’ve grown up with screens instead of face-to-face contact. There is some fear that a sexual encounter could result in an accusation of rape or sexual harassment. There is so much pornography that, for an increasing number of men, it serves as an outlet for what in the past would have required actual human contact. There are many factors.

Former Fox News host Geraldo Rivera: “By focusing on the censorship aspect and the First Amendment aspect, it’s losing sight of what should be the lead and that’s that Jimmy Kimmel owes the family of Charlie Kirk and his wife Erika, two small children, an apology. You know, you know, what’s he saying? That if you’re if you’re a member of MAGA and Charlie is a friend of MAG, of MAGA, then he had it coming. It’s just — it’s — it’s in some ways — it’s very — it’s — extremely — extremely insensitive. The country is in a country is in a very tough spot right now. Everyone is walking on eggshells. The First Amendment is not a license to incite hatred and, you know, I think that we can think that we can start the discussion once Jimmy Kimmel apologizes, then they can talk about the business aspects and whether or not he gets whether or not he gets back on the schedule and so forth, but there’s got to there’s got to be a recognition that a terrible thing has happened here, and that millions of Americans are grievously hurt by what happened. You know, there is a — Charlie Kirk was beloved by many. And to just trample over it. He’s not even buried yet for goodness sake. And to make fun of the flags at half staff and so forth. I just half staff and so forth. I just think that we’ve got to look at it with a — with a notion that the country has to be healed, that we have to work to bring people together, that we need to respect each other.

Jake Paul says YouTuber disease is real "When you create something and you get validation back for it and people like it, that feels really good as an artistic creative person" "Then there is a certain point where you’ve done it all, talked about everything, and showed the audience my life, and whatever it might be for each YouTuber" "But then there’s a point where the views start to go back down, it’s just a natural progression, it’s happening to MrBeast currently" "Then it’s what can I do to get that feeling back to continue to grow these views. That’s when I think creatively you lose a sense of yourself and you start to do things that aren’t authentic to who you are"

This was the best interview on Sports Collectibles that I have seen yet. 🎯 Sorkin asks Ken what he ascribes the “hockey stick” growth of the collectibles market and what has recently changed: “There is a lot more people that are seriously involved. There are alot less people looking to get in to make a quick buck, and the best of the best is constantly going up - and the stuff that is not that rare is very very slowly increasing.”

Threadguy explains why Pokémon gacha companies have one of the greatest business models ever “You have a very finite supply of vintage Pokémon that people want. There's not that many of these cards” “So you get a bunch of these gambling companies to come in and the only moat these gacha companies have is their supply. So they come up with big VC dollars and they buy everything” “They put them in these packs. Somebody spends, reveals a gacha and what do they do? They sell it back to the company -15% and then they spend again” “Almost nobody is actually cashing out, getting the card shipped and letting it hit the market again. Once they're purchased from the gacha companies, these cards never hit the market again” “Gamble, sell back, gamble, sell back, gamble, sell back” “The gacha companies never have to sell inventory because they make 15% on every gamble and sell back. The actual gamblers never let the inventory hit the market because they just sell back”

Qullamaggie on Hard Periods in Swing Trading “But yeah, these periods happen a couple of times per year, so it’s just part of the game. You just have to man up and stay patient — that’s the only way. Because I know that the good times are gonna be back. I know that there’s gonna be a period of a few weeks or a few months where I’m gonna make at least a million dollars. I don’t know if it’s gonna be this year, but it’s definitely going to be somewhere next year, and I just have to wait for that time.”
