You've got a new technology. People are getting very excited about it. Very, very similar patterns. If you know the history, you are aware of the vulnerability of the markets.""You couldn't really understand the world unless you understood interest. And you have to bear in mind the Fed funds rate of 0% and the negative interest rates in Europe and in Japan. But those zero rates and negative rates were the lowest interest rates in five millennia of history. So that, that obviously has to be a noteworthy factor.""If you think about it, it took two and a half years for losses on subprimes to the Lehman's blowup. Everyone expects that everything happens very quickly, and after the fact, the timeline seems to be compressed.
