directional thesis63:50published / short / CRM Salesforce keeps posting double-digit growth now, but big customers are openly planning two-year exits to free cash for GPUs, and the per-seat model gets squeezed as AI agents do the work.Yeah. How have you been processing the SaaSpocalypse narrative? Uh, Benioff was given some pushback. Uh, other folks were very bullish on it. There's a whole bunch of different data points. I've been just shocked that, uh, We haven't seen revenue declines from really any software company that's been targeted, although, you know, you could talk about the long term, but slowing growth, the growth like these companies are still growing even if they are in like the direct path of the AI companies.

They're just like, I need to free up money to set on GPUs, set GPUs on fire. Sure. And I'll pay anybody to move me into a Postgres instance in Google Cloud or AWS.
directional thesis80:43published / long / XBI Small-cap biotech gets bid up as cash-rich pharma buys out innovators to refill pipelines facing a $170B+ patent cliff; an equal-weight basket of those targets captures the takeout premiums.Certainly the GLP-1 boom. One of the trends that's going on here is that the industry has to restock the shelves for new drugs. As drugs go off patent, there's these revenue cliffs. And so Big Pharma is sitting on probably the largest pile of capital they've ever sat on, and they look to acquire a lot of their innovations from small companies. Those are the folks that we support to create new medicines. So there's definitely a huge M&A trend that's happening this year, and it'll continue to happen for the foreseeable future.

At the same time, Orbital Estate said that it has obtained strategic credit lines totaling $8.4 billion from 12 major financial institutions, including the Bank of China.

And then now it just feels like you have the SaaSpocalypse in the public market and then a lot of early-stage companies that are getting investment are still SaaS. So, I'm curious, do you still believe in SaaS?
