I am guessing that all these businesses that looked 'cheap' to the money-making, investor-darlings machines (the FAANGs) -- will now get closed. The inflation apparently, does not just affect the currency value -- it also corrects

sorry, but your assessment of what is genuine vs disingenuous, is very disingenuous in itself. Perhaps, it is time to relinquish the presumptions of moral superiority -- and just discuss technical details without the drama ... I am saying t
