Hmmm: 2009 Bail out = $700B, investment in VC funds in 2009 = $15B
- nhangen 15y agoWhat's interesting about this to me is that so few companies are going IPO. Is there more money to be made by staying private, or is it just that they're waiting for the right time? Beyond that, I hope it's not a bubble, because if you ask me, this is the only thing giving me hope in the economy. When VC's stop investing, the whole sector is going to be in trouble.
- schmittz 15y agoI honestly can't believe this guy is a financial reporter and doesn't know the difference between TARP and the stimulus. I'm sorry, but you can't argue that he works in startups as an excuse to have misunderstandings about major macroeconomic policies that certainly, to varying degrees affect the business he work in.
