    @User47 The S&P 500 blocked SpaceX’s IPO which basically makes an IPO for Anthropic or OpenAI impossible because they were depending on S&P to bypass several guardrails for SpaceX that they also needed to bypass to IPO.The entire thing might be collapsing because going public was the only way any of these companies could hope to get enough cash survive. Even SpaceX which is now very far from profitability and holds the entirety of the debt Elon used to buy Twitter.

    "Could Albertans already be seeing the nascent economic impact of... fading home equity? Could this snowball into a made-in-AB, thank-you-Danielle recession if business investment dollars divert to other provinces? What happens if O&G head offices relocate, the way financial corps abandoned Montreal when the dreamers were pushing separation there?"New estimates are that leaving #Canada would cost Albertans about $400 billion for disentanglement. Residents there would have to grapple with the loss of #Canadian #citizenship and the massive overhead of setting up their own social #safety net, #retirement income support and security. Atop this would be the rational decision of major corporations to stay far away until it was known if this breakaway, land-locked, under-populated rebel territory was economically viable or even stable."Might this bring years of falling real estate prices?"How could it be otherwise?"#abpoli #canpolihttps://www.greaterfool.ca/2026/06/04/a-cool-wind-in-cowtown/
