What’s the difference between a loan and a bailout? And if BART has cash flow problems today, how does giving them a loan actually fix the underlying issue? How will you service the loan if you have cash flow problems, and what measures is BART taking to increase cash...

"There's an incredible amount of leverage that's been taken out without cash flow able to service the debt" Nico Lechuga on why cash flow is what makes Bitcoin leverage survivable "Everybody has their own take on this, and we'll see what happens within the market. But if you're taking on any type of leverage, any type of debt, think about our own personal lives. If you buy a car, you buy a house and you're mortgaging that, you're taking out an interest loan, generally there's some degree of credit institution checking you to make sure that you have the cash flow to service the debt you've taken out" "When we're building businesses we think of risk vectors, and how those risk vectors potentially impact the business's chance of success. If you've introduced a risk vector, in this case leverage taken out against the business without having cash flow able to service it, then you can impair your business. This is designed by having uncorrelated businesses with good margins, sustainable cash flows. If you're taking out even a degree of leverage to buy Bitcoin, the only time you would ever do that is after you have the businesses and you have the cash flow" "Even if Bitcoin's price goes down, we see a drop from 126 to where we're at 65, 66 today, it doesn't matter, because you have the cash flow to service the debt. In the same way, when you buy a car and drive it off the lot, if you're paying with financing and the value drops 50% the day you drive it off the lot, you have a job and you can service that, so you're not impaired"

Friedberg: Michael Burry’s “Cooked Books” Claim is Totally Wrong david friedberg: “Burry's implication that they are cooking the books or hiding accounting is completely false because all of the accounting is apparent in the cashflow statement and in the balance sheet.” “Remember, companies have three financial statements, an income statement, a balance sheet, and a cashflow statement.” “The cashflow statement reconciles the difference between the income statement and the balance sheet, and it shows you all the cash that's going in and out of the company.” “And many analysts and many investors that are intelligent and do their homework, will look at the cash flow statement and they will see the CapEx, they will see all the investments going out, and they will calculate a number, typically called free cash flow, that will allow them to estimate the true cash generation of the business in a particular period and make an assessment of, should they be valued on free cash flow or should they be valued on the GAAP standard of EBITDA?” “And the investor has the choice on how they want to value the company.” “And Burry is incorrect in thinking that they're hiding anything because it's all there.” “They're following GAAP standards. And then investors make a market and they all decide, what do I want to value this company on? Cash flow? EBITDA?” “Let them choose, and then the market sets the price.” Chamath Palihapitiya: “I think we've given this guy way too much airtime. He's not very good at what he does.” Recorded in the brand new poker studio at The Venetian Las Vegas. Thanks The Venetian Resort Las Vegas!

Jeff Bezos: “Focus on the controllable inputs to your business instead of the outputs” Jeff gives the example of companies trying to drive up their stock price by actually going out and trying to sell their stock: “[A higher stock price] is the final output…. That’s not going to be sustainable. It’s a silly approach.” Jeff recommends working backwards from a higher stock price to its controllable inputs instead: “What are the inputs to a higher stock price? Okay, well, free cash flow and return on invested capital are inputs to a higher stock price. Let’s keep working backwards. What are the inputs to free cash flow? And you keep working backwards until you get to something that’s controllable.” He points out that a controllable input to free cash flow would be something like a lower cost structure: “If we can improve our picking efficiency in our fulfillment centers and reduce defects - reducing defects at the root is one of the best ways to lower cost structure - that starts to be a job you would accept. If you’re a reasonable person, you would say, I have no idea how to drive up the stock price - I can’t manage that directly. It’s not a controllable input. But I can make your picking algorithms more efficient, and that will reduce cost structure. And then you follow that chain all along the way. That’s what you do in all of these businesses.” Video source: Business Insider (2014)
