So crazy! Didn’t even think of all extra electric use

Still parabolic numbers. Investors may feel they went up too far too fast, but it’s irrelevant because demand and supply will raise the stock price in the future.

PS…NVDA down, but all its customers are up.

Someone here loves this. HA

In all seriousness, I'm interested to see if we get into the 3s this cycle or if they have to stop cutting due to inflation. Do they have to start adding MBS to their balance sheet or will banks, funds, wall street even want to buy loans at 3-4%.
