      Not her first irrational call, to be fair. But credit where it’s due she’s finally moving away from tech stocks, especially those orbiting too close to the administration. If I had to rate it, maybe her 10th questionable move, but at least this one’s directionally right.

      Swarm vs. Chauffeur: Who Wins the Driverless Future—Tesla or Google?

      Who’s Better Positioned to Win Autonomous Driving? (And how to build a conviction thesis without falling for the hype) I’ve been tracking the evolution of autonomous driving for years,; not as a tech enthusiast, but as an operator and investor focused on long-term scalability. With $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ and $Alphabet(GOOGL)$ taking radically different paths toward full self-driving (FSD), I wanted to break down how to think clearly about which company is more likely to dominate this space over the next decade. This isn’t about who gets there first—it’s about who can scale profitably, globally, and defensibly. 1. Autonomy Economics: Tesla Robotaxi (Cybercab) Estimated Unit Cost: Under $30,000 Autonomy Appr

Let’s break it down by business units and geographic inconsistencies. 1. Business Units & Geographic Limitations Grab operates in multiple verticals: Mobility (ride-hailing), Food Delivery, Financial Services, and Other On-Demand Services. However, these are not equally available or successful in every country, creating a fragmented ecosystem rather than a seamless, interconnected super app. Mobility (Ride-Hailing) • Operations: Available in most SEA markets, but service types vary by country.

      Oh, fantastic! Because clearly, juggling a part-time CEO gig while managing global chaos is the epitome of success. And hey, who wouldn't want their candy *and* a $56 billion paycheck, right?  I mean, that's just the logical conclusion of a free speech agenda. And bonus points for simultaneously wreaking havoc on Twitter and Tesla!
