That's fine, but that's a separate conversation. Maybe this is a bubble, maybe it isn't.
My point is that the way it's all being financed is just regular financing. This article is trying to present the way it's being funded as novel, as "complex and circular", when it's not. This is how funding and investment works 365 days a year in all sectors. Nothing about the funding arrangements is a bubble indicator.
So this is a strange article from the NYT, because it's trying to present normal everyday financing deals as uniquely "complex and circular".
- delis-thumbs-7e 1y agoI don’t know financial world well enough to say whether that’s here nor there, but can you give me examples from other companies or sectors where a company X funds the company Y with tens to hundreds of billions that the company Y uses to buy a service from the company X. Furthermore, yes it might be business as usual but so is fraud and god knows what else in this particular political era. In order to strengthen your argument you have to not only show that the phenomenon is not only common, but good for the overall economy.
