    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Robin Hanson

    really not sure how I'd trade on "aliens are arriving" my first thought is that they'll have tech in advance of ours, rendering almost all of our tech sector hugely obsolete what's complementary to technology? dumb labor, I suppose? art?https://twitter.com/robinhanson/status/1401576297638236164 …

    Here @tylercowen takes the topic of social implications of aliens "seriously", by predicting that defense stocks would rise, but most other stock prices are unaffected. Really, THAT'S the biggest implication you can think of? https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-05-04/ufo-sightings-if-pentagon-takes-them-seriously-so-should-market …

        Adjusting it into markets makes zero sense Either they are or aren't (I'm guessing the latter) going to show up. If they don't, then it doesn't make sense. If they do, there's NO way to prepare for what changes they bring, thus you can't price it in

        5/ But contact with Euros absolutely changed the RELATIVE VALUE of things in the Maori culture / economy.https://twitter.com/MogTheUrbanite/status/1401584273556082688 …

        It would be like the Maori trying to price muskets into the pre-contact New Zealand economy after seeing a distant sail on the horizon

        Have to keep your investment capital liquid, watch the markets and be ready to take advantage of the volitility itself, selling short or long, rather than trying to own any one thing. Fortunes will be made and lost on daily swings, and the most perceptive, or luckiest, will win.

        You think cheap manufacturing in Asia drive prices down? Imagine engaging with a galactic scale fully automatized industry
