The thing we get to watch now (as non shareholders, hopefully) is how quickly this unravels in the midst of a stagflation cycle that slowly worsens in a low-information environment. It will be entertaining, at least, while us normies suffer.

The vast majority of poll-sniffing punditry just refuses to take on board this very basic feature of human psychology. People make vibes decisions based on factors they're probably not fully conscious of. And then they cast about for a respectable-sounding rationalization for that decision.
