Interesting they didn't include Netflix. Morgan Stanley talks about the FANG stocks, meaning FB, Apple, Netflix, and Google, and I usually take issue with that for not including Amazon.

If we look at oil and mass production, we see similar. Same with rail. Huge bubble, lots of folks go bust, then what's left matures and becomes a big empire as consolidation takes place on a tech society legitimately cares about. It so

Not literally investments in microprocessors, but all of those things above depend on microprocessors. Regarding the paper losses... sure. But Perez's point was more that a huge bubble would crash, which was the dot com, and then socie

They're all put under "information age" because all of them depend on the microprocessor. According to Perez, the peak investment phase in financial markets paying attention to tech was during the dotcom boom. This definitely

This is the Perez book I mentioned: http://www.amazon.com/Technological-Revolutions-Financial-Ca... If you follow Marc Andreeson, Chris Dixon, Fred Wilson, etc, you'll see they are all very fond of her work too.

I wish more folks would read Carlota Perez. We've had 5 tech revolutions since, and including, the Industrial Revolution. It'll probably be another 10-15 before something as significant as a computer kicks off the next one. Until

Would love if anyone could help me understand what value is left at TNR. It seems a lot of people left and that sales were around 2000 issues a month. Not sure how to think about this.

GM's current mktcap is about $53B. A $500m investment represents putting almost 1% of their company into Lyft. Tesla's mktcap is about half of GM's, so this investment represents 2% of Tesla. Uber's last valuation put th

I didn't mean to suggest what he's doing is good. Just that it's a common business strategy and this person applied it in a horrible way. Most people don't want to get rich slowly, as Charlie Munger says

If this was done slowly, it could be an extremely effective strategy. Not too different from what Berkshire did with See's Candies. http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2014/07/13/warren-buff..

I once built a web framework named Brubeck ( https://github.com/j2labs/brubeck ). I stopped developing it a while ago, though. I am really happy to see another project, one that will probably reach more people than my we
