    M Green is one of the brightest mind in the field (only discrepancy I have with him is a small back and forth about Roman history where I still stand my ground). No one has explained with more depth and detail the risks associated to passive investing and current market conditions. The only other person who warned about passive (but mostly when he was kicked out and ETF started at Vanguard) was "Jack" Bogle himself.

    Sometimes Protecting your capital is much more important than making money. Basically because if you lose your capital, making money is much harder. ''Missing the train'' vs. ''losing your money''. There are a lot of trains, but if your money is gone, it's over.

    @sammymckay9218 Месяц назад +4

    Okay Mike, I gotta call you out on this. What in the hell are you talking about in regards to Commodities? 1. You say they occupy less of our mental daily life. How is that relevant in any possible way to their significance to our daily life? The fact that it occupies less mental space for most people has no bearing whatsoever on the place of Commodities in our economy. Energy literally is GDP, it is the economy. Same goes for copper. They are and will forever remain essential. So the notion that somehow because the mental occupancy is low for everyday Joe's on sourcing their Commodities or sourcing their energy makes them a poor investment makes no sense whatsoever. It's a complete non-sequitur.
    2. You say Commodities are going to play less of a role going into the future as scarce assets. Okay Mike, when it comes to energy and innovation, it is additive. Jevons paradox is one way to put it, that with innovation and new forms of energy, demand simply continues to rise despite the innovation, because demand for energy is theoretically infinite. But the same goes for base Commodities, because they are essential or that innovation, for new technology.
    3. We are literally on the precipice of the ai revolution, which will demand exponentially more energy, infrastructure, base metals etc. To say that scarcity is going to matter less in the future at this moment seems to me to be one of the worst calls I've ever heard. Barring a depression. When Commodities are scarce, guess what, people notice theyre paying more for electricity, for housing, for food, for fuel, for lumber, for Fertilizer, etc. All of the necessities for people to have the life of a 1st world country citizen depend upon a balance between supply and demand. If supply were to decrease for Commodities, you bet people will notice they're paying more. I can't believe what I'm hearing.

    To Jack's comment. I think that looking at volume in dollars is a flawed approach, looking at it in terms of number of shares would be better. BRK.A shares cost 690K a piece most people can't purchase one share. NVR share 9.4K so this would price many investors from purchasing shares unless their broker can handle orders for fractional shares. This would have a considerable effect on liquidity. A seller would only have offers from wealthy buyers.
