Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

Why don't we go in and steal all of that hungry capital out there that wants to invest in AI?

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

But interestingly, in that context,

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

In that thesis, there is an implication that if we get out first, we're going to suck all the capital out of the ecosystem and there's not going to be enough left for the rest of you.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

Do you think that that is a legitimate concern as these IPOs start to ramp up, that maybe the last one is going to be the loser, that they're not going to be able to raise as much as the rest of them?

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

We also mentioned the sheer scale of the equity issuance.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

You've got Google, $85 billion, SpaceX, $75 billion, and then opening iAnthropic.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

We don't know, but probably in that ballpark, I mean, that's the amount that they've been raising in their private rounds.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

There are some concerns now about the amount of supply

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

that is about to just be injected into the market, that it might be a shocking level of supply.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

And as we know from Econ 101, more supply generally means lower prices, or it does mean lower prices.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

Do you think that is a concern going into the second half of the year as well, that the supply might reduce prices in the equity markets?

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

Just before we let you go, you mentioned SpaceX.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

SpaceX is going public at the end of the week.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

I personally can't wait to see what happens here.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

It's just the scale of this thing is just absolutely mind-blowing.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

Do you have any thoughts on this IPO and what might happen?

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

What do you make of this company and what we've seen?

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

goes up a lot on the first day.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

I'm with you on that.

Prof G Markets
Why A Hot Jobs Report Spooked Wall Street

Do you think it comes down on the second day or the third or the fourth or the fifth?
