Notes -
Does anyone think that the US elections are a little overhyped? I keep hearing people hypothesize 'maybe they're waiting for after the elections to release the new AI model' or 'oh shares are waiting for the election before there are any swings' and such things.
US elections are important. There are significant differences between the candidates. It does have consequences. But are they this universally impactful in the short-term? Is the whole world really holding its breath? I think the Israelis or the Russians have some interest in the election outcome but it's not a primary factor in their decision-making, whatever they're doing they're fundamentally going to keep doing.
I get the sense that the intense media coverage is making people make connections that aren't really there.
Tons of hype. Maybe 99% hype.
Ok, maybe that's not fair...the big deal is that there's always a chance something different could happen. I'm just inured to a political class of the lowest common denominator and the resulting chaos.
