    Exchanging Lanes: Just In Time to Just In Case, Last Mile to Last Yard
    Greetings all, @brad_s and I are back with a new "face-lifted" Exchanging Lanes (as in, I had to get a facelift over the holidays, as not of all us can look like we're frozen at age 20 like Brad can). In this episode, Brad and I explore excess inventories in a search for early sources of where deflation/disinflation may come from, which isn't being discussed by the broader public: Massive warehousing capacity coming online Shelves empty, stock room full, macro data useless Also, if yo…

    I was wondering if different age groups had significantly different inflation expectations, and i...
    I was specifically wondering if those who lived through 1970s inflation would be more likely to it today. The blue line shows that those over 60 are braced for much higher inflation.  Maybe if you lived through 70s-style inflation, your memory reflex of those years colors your view today. That's not to say the view is wrong.

    60 years of homebuilding in my favourite developing country.
    Here is a well-written short review of home building in murica.    07-08 was really dramatic for new builds content: * Homebuilding in 2020 * Homebuilding a history * Drivers of Home Building   interesting; "More homes were permitted in Austin last year than in Los Angeles and Chicago combined."

    Exchanging Lanes: Debut Episode
    https://vimeo.com/561587797 This has the potential to be the greatest experiment to test the superiority of the Exchange against everyone/thing else. I truly believe that a truck driver and a D student can self-generate a better grasp of the real economy than so called economists, market participants, academics, policy makers and anyone else - precisely because we are taking a highly unconventional (and highly rational) approach. But we need your help - so if you have anything (really- anything…

    I just read a really useful paper on index (inflation) linked bonds (linkers).
    It's only 12 pages and easy to understand. It covers a variety of concepts including duration, how linkers behave in different economic environment, volatility, and liquidity. Anyway here's the link in case you want to read it. An Introduction to Inflation-Linked Bonds by Werner Krämer, Managing Director, Economic Analysis at Lazard Asset Management. Published 2017.  https://www.lazardassetmanagement.com/docs/sp0/6034/AnIntroductionToInflation-LinkedBonds_LazardResearch.pdf  Also, if you kno…

    Jeffrey Gundlach can't find a new truck to buy
    "I actually bought a truck a couple of weeks ago. And the lot, the car dealer's a big car dealership, they had no new trucks. There weren't any," Gundlach recalled. Because of the chip shortage, "all he had on his entire lot were used trucks," the investor added — meaning he had to settle for a used one. According to Gundlach, the truck he purchased had 8,000 miles on it, but was only $2,000 less than the sticker price of a brand new truck. "The fella who sold it to …

    AgTech Ideas/Discussion - Post Dwight Anderson (Tiger Cub)
    Hi all, I recently had the chance  to watch @Max Wiethe 's interview with Dwight Anderson about the AgTech space, and I noticed there was not a thread discussing it yet. I wanted to start one as I don't imagine many of us are experts in such a niche space, including myself, and I'm interested in learning more - so wanted to open up the floor. Prior to watching the video, I was broadly interested in the AgTech space I thought of it as an interesting way to play inflation while having exposure …
