His predictions don’t matter… what matters is the thesis and what it is based upon. Literally nobody can predict to the month or even year when a bubble will pop. But you can identify and document that a bubble exists, and what the actors are doing.

When reading an article you’re supposed to analyze the actual thesis, not just evaluate if the person is an oracle or not



If you fervently posit a theory but its predictions fail, why would anyone believe it?


Because it’s economics, a social science. Not a physics experiment you can replicate in a lab. You do what a serious person does: look at the thesis, look at the sources, look at the numbers, and do your own analysis


And you’d consider zitron a serious person?
