Great news- if you're a fan of Nassim Taleb: "I've seen gluts not followed by shortages, but I've never seen a shortage not followed by a glut."

Already priced in. That’s the problem with Taleb. His insight is not actionable.

If it’s giving you true insight into how something works, then how is that not valuable?

Are you suggesting everyone already knows it?

I have no take on whether or not this specific situation is priced in or not. However I’d challenge you on the second comment. I’ve found Taleb’s advice very actionable but it did take a lot of thinking about it to move from abstract thoughts into practice.
