Exactly.
There are times when companies will acquire and just let them be.
I think that this could be a situation where Microsoft could acquire Discord and let it be.
I don't think it's going to happen.
I do think we're going to see Discord IPO in 2026.
I will love to take a look under the hood when it does, but that's my guess here.
In my view, Berkshire loves to bet on America, real down-home, everyday America.
Among publicly traded companies, I think that Berkshire might be interested in Cisco.
This is not the CISKO, this is the SYSKO, ticker symbol SYY.
This is a food trucking delivery business.
You know, you look at Berkshire, it already owns Pilot Flying J truck stops, maybe some tie in there.
I think another interesting player would be United Rentals.
This is the largest equipment rental company in the country.
A lot of infrastructure work happening.
One of the rare bipartisan agreements that we need to invest in infrastructure.
And so United Rentals, I think, has a long tailwind.
And I think that Berkshire could be interested in something like that.
As we said, it's all hypothetical, but I love the idea of Spotify potentially acquiring Paramount.
It would take Spotify in a very new direction.
It would cost a lot of money.
