EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INTERVIEW FOR INVESTORS
Especially new ones!

I disagree with most of it, but ULTRA-IMPORTANT!

2/ Grantham from GMO is labeled as a value investor, but don't let it fool you. Unlike other "geniuses" he doesn't just check P/E or P/S, but also factors in growth, including possibly huge growth.

Ultimately his preference or bias is for dividend stocks, but he's doing it right
3/ He sees the current condition as a bubble that should burst in. 2 months - unless further inflated by the fed.

If you disagree don't stop reading. Important!
4/ Before pointing to where i agree and where i don't, i think it's ULTRA IMPORTANT for investors to hear opposing views, when they have firm grounds

Fine to disagree but bad to just dismiss or ignore - do that and you might lose everything

(that's the only ADVICE i give, BTW)
5/ Grantham sees the market as a bubble that should burst in. 2 months - unless further inflated by the fed

History shows that on bull mkts once everyone is HUGELY optimistic and put EVERYTHING they have in the mkt, there is nowhere else to go (unless fed gives even more money)
6/ He's right on the optimism part.
Bc "The opportunity is too good to miss out" I not only put ALL my savings in stocks, i also borrowed to do so.

I won't sell on bad news, but those leveraged like me who will sell (in panic or margin calls) could lose everything
7/ B4 going with what IMO he has right and what very wrong, another pointer that this is no Gordon Johnson.
He invests in clean energy, he believes we should all make the world (not just shareholders) happy,

His analysis is bright, he's just wrong on some assumptions and facts
8/ OK.. He's right in thinking many stocks are a huge bubble inflated by faith. He invested in QuantumScape but admits that a company with no product, no revenues for at least 4years should NOT be larger than GM

He hates SPACs. Much better to make regular IPOs more accessible
9/ We saw how big the $NKLA bubble got before bursting.

We saw Tilman Fertitta roll his Golden Nugget company's debt to the LCA SPAC he also ran that purchased it.

We see vaporware companies getting huge valuations. What happens when they pop?
10/ Robin Hooders sometimes see stocks as a money printing machine that never goes down. This is dangerous.

He says that if (artificial) federal bond rates are low, this changes the temptation to invest in companies - but NOT the basic tech and fundamentals of the company
11/ He sees bitcoin as a 0 Dividend stock based on pure faith. You can sell a bitcoin for $1m if someone believes it's worth it; but there's no intrinsic value. No dividend and you can't eat it

Smart interviewer said same true for gold, and Grantham's answer didn't convince 🙂
12/ I agree to a lot and will keep watch for warning signs - but more importantly I disagree on the bottom line.

I'm NOT investing in balloon SPACs.
I'm NOT investing in 0-value companies just bc "they're like Tesla"

The only investments I make are in companies ...
13/ i only invest in disruptive companies for which i am fairly certain I can calculate a future stream of revenues far higher than what mkt assumes
If cash-Fed 😉 spac/ev bubble explodes, Tesla will still make lotsa cars which will have lotsa demand (Despite lower luxury sales)
14/ Same for my smaller holdings (FUV, NVX, ARKK, ARKG). They could suffer once the overall party's over, but NOT NEARLY AS MUCH as the bubble stocks

And two years later the dip will be forgotten bc long-term value won't change

That's a risk i'm willing to take 4 current upside

@threadreaderapp unroll, bro
PS forgot to add he says the way to invest despite the bubble is either emerging markets (ho hum) or RENEWABLE ENERGY companies

Did anyone say Tesla?

Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho


There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.


Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.


Declan Ganley’s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearóid Murphy, Mick O’Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.


The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isn’t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.

The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.


In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.

In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.

This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.

In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
