Long but very insightful into the current socio-political dynamic

Aren't the OTA broadcasters sitting on valuable spectrum that the FCC might be willing to allow them to lease out? I'll admit I'm not up on the latest in UHF/VHF FCC plans though.

Sold SIRI but bought LSXMK

Is Elzstain still the CEO?

Paraphrasing Buffett: "We know of one insurer that will have a lot of claims relative to their size related to business interruption coverage."
Hiscox?

Anything new in the AGM?

Might need to check what's available first. A lot of laptop inventory got bought out. But maybe it's mostly Chromebooks for online school.

Still way too much uncertainty about Covid CFR and hospitalization numbers.

Dominating in electric garbage trucks, buses.
Not an SOE but I guess that means nothing to US legislators.

BMJ letters posit theory that ACE inhibitors (prescribed for HBP) could be the factor. Studies show that ACE inhibitors upregulate ACE2 expression in cardiac tissue. Could also be upregulated in lungs thus giving SARS-COV-2 more binding targets.

Has anyone tried to look up Himalaya positions through the Shanghai Exchange?
Heard on some twitter thread that Himalaya is an investor in Ping An and Kweichou Moutai. Though doubtful at the level that might required disclosure. Still Li Lu may have 5% positions in smaller A share companies.

Lying, conflict, outrage, conspiracy, paranoia draw engagement from those attracted to it and from those attempting to dispute it.
The best solution is shunning. Inattention/disregard is the best sanitizer.

ZH is not the hill to die on w/r/t censorship or even Twitter censorship
These battles were all litigated once before when urbanization/industrialization supercharged the printing press. See William Randolph Hearst.

Bull market in doom prophecy
But that said the economic effects in China will have ripples in OECD economies > SARS but how much bigger?
People are going to get paid, without producing ie staying at home in the worst off cities, SOEs and private biz need liquidity, state will backstop banks to provide that liquidity.

The CCP made a great show several years ago of studying gray rhinos. Seems like for something which they should have been very prepared for the party is caught off guard. Crickets from Zhongnanhai.

Has Klarman just given up on trying to restrict access to his letter?
Or maybe this one is a fake. :)

Have there been any good books or long-form accounts of the entire Steinhoff International story?

File that in the errors of omission stack.

31 counties 1/3 of GDP is kind of a meaningless stat. There's lots of GDP tied in the wholesale value chain.
For example, Boeing 737 sale gets booked in King County. But the bill of materials includes parts and services scattered all over the US.
