NVIDIA is doing circular finance deals with all of the top labs to pump up demand for its products and charging a monopoly rate on those products. Everything in computing is costing more.

Access to capital for everyone else is dropping. And the US economy is being managed by chaos monkeys, causing all kinds of supply chain disruptions. Oligopolies in almost every market are increasingly jacking up prices above market equilibrium rates as they are emboldened by a corrupted FTC.

Despite what Peter Thiel may have led you to believe, Monopolies are not healthy for an economy in aggregate.

Of course the economy is slowing.
