I looked at what Quantum Computing companies make money with. 

ha, wish I'd thought of that!

Does that mean SPACs collapse when observed?

@@bartroberts1514 Only if observed at the quantum level, hidden underneath 10E23 magnitudes of Bullshit.

@@bartroberts1514 Generally, yes. The harder people look into them the more likely they are to collapse. XD

Some conceptions are harder and more painful than others.. Like realizing that you do not know yourself and very little about the world I guess.. Anyway take care and be smarter every day, this is the real meaning between Einstein's "compound interests" 😉

Lots of newly-public businesses used the SPAC mechanism during 2020-22. Most of them will fail but so will many businesses taking the IPO route so it's no indication of quality.

Everybody who knew a finance youtube channel would hide that from you. The SPAC has now become the new Derivative market, That went bust in 2007You know, when you bought Bad titles with good ones, in a bundle. SPACS have become that. and Investors do what they do best, invest into foreign assets.(papers in 2007) Hoping for a discount. Nothing changed in the malpractice. Lack of information about what is going on. Transparency? NOT a Stock market Forté.

In recent years SPACs have increasingly gotten used more frequently used but I think they were a mechanism primarily known to economists until DJT used a SPAC to go public earlier this year. SPACs are also known as blank cheque companies and I think that term is pretty descriptive of a the risks involved.

I only watched this video, it explains what a SPAC is very simply, but I don't get why it works. So I start a company that gets lots of venture capital to make some vaporware or run a shitty cash-hemorrhaging social media app or whatever. I take my business plan to NASDAQ saying "list me baby, I wanna IPO!" and they scrutinize it then tell me to get lost. So now I start a company that does nothing (a SPAC), and bring my business that says "this company is nothing just a shell that may envelop an actual company some day" to NASDAQ so now they say "yes sir have an IPO!" Seriously, how is this better, what am I missing?

A little be unclear what SPAC do to be eligible to be listed on stock exchange. They need to have some revenue ?

Worked for me.👍👍

Just don't invest in literal Boring Company

@@AG-ig8uf There are some very good Boring companies cutting tunnels in all sorts of useful places also some very volatile companies boring down for minerals. Probably want the boring boring companies.

Don't do it if there is an actual revolution... But during revolution times, you need a lot of study and luck.

This isn’t advise it’s basic common sense lol

It's literally quantum entangled embezzlement!

No crimes have been committed here. This all hinges on Sabines well-informed belief vs the unlikely beliefs of these startups, but at the end of the day neither is a guarantee and there is nothing illegal about founding and funding high risk high reward companies.

@@ObjectsInMotion you can't disagree SPACs are a problem - they allow anything to get a listing. getting a listing is supposed to be a vetting process protecting general public from bad actors. SPACs circumvent this. it is legal now, but really it is a very grey area.

Yes it is cute to watch a former scientist starting to explore the real world.

So the bullshit business is baked air and the bullshit products are vapor ware. Interesting.

Well said. I always think of "gebakken lucht" when seeing an air fryer 😂

Funny, in German we call that "hot air"

Good one

C'mon. Just another 30 years....

a bit different. fusion power if it's cracked has immediate practical application and a way to profitability. because it's obvious, it's just power production, you would just plug it into the grid, into existing infrastructure. quantum computing's practical applications are all sort of hypothetical. so with fusion there is a big question "can it be ever cracked", with quantum computing there are two "can it be ever cracked?" and "can we actually do anything useful with it?"

@@alexmikhylov you could argue quantum computing is already cracked, we have working quantum computers, the second question is what's hindering the progress. You can't really upgrade a product if you don't know what you want to do with it.

​@@thesharinganx5847 in that sense fusion is also already cracked: you can kinda fire it, there is plasma, there is energy production, it's just producing way less than you have to input to fire it. quantum computing is cracked in principle only: every existing quantum computer is technically working but is utterly useless in every practical sense.

It makes the entire field look shady. I feel bad for the genuine researchers who just want to do science, not engage in tech scams like E-lyin' Muskrat

It's all bullshit, I was actually disappointed that she said that some of the companies will make their products, when the fact is that they won't, you and your companies are just SCAMMERS

Understand that, I think Sabine would agree too.

@@viyye Sounds like you lost money on QC stocks!

@@jackfromthe60s no actually, I can smell a scam from a million miles, quantum is a scam with everything that comes with it, you are not a physics if you believe in such crap, I don't care where you got your degree from

I hope to be gone before government mandated Toast As A Service for a nominal monthly fee is a thing.

But, hey, with taxing unrealized capital gains, the government will make out like bandits no matter what. 🙄

Alas, both states will still fall jam side down!

Hmmh, so it turns it into Hydrocarbons? Splendid, i'll fill my car with it.😂

The world has been stock trading since 1611. I don't think equity trading is the cause of that many problems. It allows companies to raise capital and for investors to be rewarded for placing their capital at risk. I am not saying there aren't economic problems in the world. But we need to look at the root causes and not the symptom. There are many other invesment classes as well, we should not single out the stock market. In fact I would say that much of the monkey business goes on in investment classes other than equities. I will concede that the modern financial system can amplify some of the underlying root problems.

@@msromike123 Yes, I agree. Maybe these extreme parctices of predator capitalism in the finacial system should be ruled out.

@@Thomas-gk42 Individual invesors need to invest like Warren Buffet. Never invest in something you don't understand with people you don't know.

I think the issue isn't so much the trading per se, as the lack of information about what is really going on. There's so much nonsense been written about quantum computing!

If your not like from the 60s you never lived in a system that was real and fair, Shit turned into make believe during the 70s and has only gotten more and more dumb. You know most countries economy goes around through debt? The more debt they have the more they can "sell" and then they can print more. its way more complicated like that ofc but it gets you an relative idea on how bullshit everything has become. Also the stock system has changed ALOT from the 1600s, it was bonkers until the great depression in the US, Then they made laws stating they can't be retarded with money and everything was kinda chill until deregulation in the 70s.

and we've only just seen the beginning of it!

That's something Maggie Thatcher would say. Yes, it is disgusting government's subsidize AI Hype electricity bills. But that's not the "taxpayer". The government investment is *_not_* using "taxpayer money". Which would be counterfeit money. The state tax credit used for public investment can only come from the government, and does not come from anywhere else. Bank loans create deposits but not net financial assets, since there's the need to repay the loan + interest. The problem with stupid government investment is the opportunity cost. The electricity could be put to far better use for public purpose. It'd be far more uplifting to society if the public investments were in healthcare, housing and education, which traditionally they used to be but less so these days in the brainworm neoliberal era.

At least for AI, there is a viable (and already existing) revenue stream. It's no way near enough to pay the bill for it, but it's a different difficulty to cut costs and increase revenue (iteratively improving what you have) compared to coming up with any way to make money from the thing.

We will pay for rolling blackouts too. Environmental lawsuits shut down new fossil fuel plants, clean or not. It takes decades to build a nuclear plant. Wind and solar cannot replace both lost supply and exponential expansion of AI, data centers and reshored manufacturers. They lie, we die.

Not just energy bills but infrastructure, resources etc. So they can be global corporations that don't pay any taxes and give their earnings to some shareholders. -_- That's also the case in drug research and vaccines. Government and public funds research then some company get rich by it. -_-

Genau :)

But FASTER!

Exactly! But you cant sell a normal toaster for 50 Mill.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......quantum toaster leavin's.

@@chuckschillingvideos i dunno. Maybe they're there, and maybe they're not.

But some, unfortunately, are. "Insider Trading" at it's finest. It's not a new thing. And if a Company gets into trouble, there are always shortsellers, who can play dice. Hired ones, or interested ones.

Totally agree. Do you have something specific in mind that I could help drawing attention to?

That is not a different perspective on SPAC's and pump & dump scams. It is an entirely different business model. Firms or start-ups taking risks with a *_good_* product idea are not trying to scam anyone, or let's say they aught not be _needing_ to scam anyone. They get crowded out by all the charlatans. Here's what's even more wild to many capitalists: the way to protect legitimate inventors and entrepreneurs is with enforcing government regulations against fraud. The laws already exist, but typically neoliberals do not exercise them (since they falsely believe the government is using "taxpayer money". Which would be counterfeit money. The state tax credit used for public investment can only come from the government, and does not come from anywhere else. Bank loans create deposits but not net financial assets, since there's the need to repay the loan + interest.)

​@@SabineHossenfelder Hi Sabine! It would very interesting to learn your thoughts about Multiverse Computing, which seems to be one of the biggest quantum computing software companies in Europe.

@@SabineHossenfelder Thanks, Sabine! One overlooked area is how AI, combined with advanced analysis, can significantly improve personalized medicine in healthcare. From my experience, we can see up to 70% improvement in patient outcomes, but since it’s not as profitable as other ventures like deep fake videos, images, and voice, it often goes unfunded.

damn it, not again!

Brilliant and not brilliant 😂😂😂

This applies to many companies but Amazon and Tesla are both profitable now, and they report pretty strong ROA.

There is ab big difference between a low price strategy to penetrate the market ( if you do this you still need to calculate your prices and you cant do it forever) and making losses because there is no market. But to be fair: capitalism has gone completely crazy last years.

Right on😂

Could not say better, man 👍

Nice to a point, except the part where taxpayers without high salaries are funding those efforts.

@@bjb7587 Protest against the Beurocracy that runs the country in disguise of a Democracy.

⁠@@bjb7587Government funds many scientific projects with much less promise for commercial success.

​@@bjb7587 Honestly the government is right to subsidize this kind of stuff, investments in new technologies tend to have positive spillovers for the entire economy beyond what companies can actually capture as revenue. Preferably though, you would give support through a well designed contract that requires the company to actually produce something, rather than by giving money with no expectations.

So, where else would money come from? If it comes from private investment then any future products would exorbitantly expensive. If there is true potential then, would we not want to be a small contributor to that effort? At the same time if govt is spending tax payer money on something, then it has to be spent after evaluating the possible benefit.

Where can I invest?😅

Thanks in return from the entire team!

Better than Pee-pl for sure :)

I like it when she refers to bullshit as…bullshit.

Con artistry with scientific characteristics.

I thought it would use a quantum eraser to undo any potential burning. Or alternatively use weak measurements to separate the burn from the toast.

That is correct, Sabina was wrong. The currency comes from the government, not from the taxpayer (which would be counterfeit money). You'd think governments might want to regulate what happens with these subsidies. Capitalism running on State life-support is _socialism but only for people who already have money._

Carbon credits from ICE manufacturers. So The Great Fountain of Bullshit.

not comrade, Musk’s riches come from real products that his companies sell like cars, X (advertising), Starlink or SpaceX (many clients).

Yes. And yet the firms mostly are only doing what the government permits, few are actually operating illegally. The neoliberal and fascist State alike supports capitalism. It is _socialism but only for people who already have money._

Rigetti, D-Wave and IonQ are all building products for the enterprise market. They all publish their roadmaps and are all on-track based on those plans. They predict the enterprise market will be where their profit comes, and all have started booking revenue from early adopters. Investors are free to follow that vision or not. This is simply how early stage Deep Tech operates.

Same here, my portfolio has been going down the drain while I try trading,I just don't know what I do wrong..

Investing with an expert is the best strategy for beginners and busy investors, as most failures and losses in investment usually happen when you invest without proper guidance. I'm speaking from experience.

​I think l'm blessed if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert mrs Fenella.. Highly recommended 🙌

Wow, I'm surprised to see Fenella mentioned here as well. I didn't know she had been kind to so many people

​I'm also a huge beneficiary of her.. I thought myself and my family were the only ones enjoying Fenella trade benefits
