I’m actually shocked at how desperate capitalists are to finding their next hype bubble. Like the that it is good for statistics is the only whiff of something they needed to go all in.
Can no one afford steady incremental returns anymore?
@grrgyle@techtakes I suspect steady/incremental returns mean dwindling asset value in the current business environment, typified by rapid churn and major tech transitions every decade (to say nothing of climate change and an unstable global political situation). If 10% of your investment portfolio becomes non-viable every decade (eg. no good owning coal fields any more) you have to grow fast or die. At least, that’s how the investment funds see it.
