So it's risky, but I wouldn't say that it's...
you know, humpty dumpty risky.
Here's the thing with IPOs.
You definitely want to go public when the timing is attractive and most attractive.
And you look at the valuations in the stock market right now, I'd say that they're pretty generous.
I'd say it's a pretty attractive time to go public.
And I think that is why, more than anything, we're seeing three, perhaps the three biggest IPOs of all time are going to happen right in a cluster when you talk about Anthropic, OpenAI, and also SpaceX.
I think that that speaks more to what is going on.
The market has a very, very favorable – it's a very favorable time to go public.
It is smart to take the most money that you can when it is available, right?
When we had 0% interest rates, it was smart to borrow money because there's really no –
there's no interest payment involved.
So yeah, why wouldn't you borrow?
So taking money when it is very attractive is smart.
I think that is more the motivation for going public right now rather than where are we going to get the money to pay?
I think that financially they're in better shape than it's not a desperation move.
It's a, this is a really good time to do it move.
Yeah, I'm looking definitely at the fact that chip production is increasingly a national security issue.
And there's a big push to bring all that production domestically, not to mention that there are more chips needed just in a general sense.
And so we're seeing all of these companies projecting, hey, we're going to build this.
