Literally killing people with red tape. Nothing, absolutely nothing, matters more than speed. By obsessing about prioritizing the vaccine we are prioritizing the extension of this pandemic.

1/ This is Lex Greensill. He founded Greensill Capital to disrupt "supply-chain finance", a $7T industry that supports global trade. A few months ago, Greensill was headed for a $40B IPO. Now, it's likely worth $0 (oh, and Softbank is involved). WTF happened? 🧵

During recessions, reported S&P 500 EPS is depressed due to some companies reporting losses. Without adjustment, a PE multiple analysis would imply these companies have negative value. So using just positive earnings can provide a better sense of run rate earnings power.

One tricky limitation of the meme market ecosystem is that, when a new fun meme comes along, meme market participants are obligated to move money out of old memes and into new memes, which causes the price of old memes to go down.

1) I was interested to learn last week that Zuckerberg evaluates potential executive hires/promotions through the lens of whether or not *he* would want to work for the person. I do the same when evaluating mgmt teams. And ironically, I started doing this on Zuckerberg's IPO.
