Game Theory of AI, Credit Cycle and Mom
In this episode of FSD (Game Theory), we dive deep into the mechanics of the credit cycle and why major tech firms have no choice but to participate in the multi-trillion dollar AI arms race. We explore the "CapEx Receiver" thesis, the hidden risks of the 2021 private credit vintage, and the historical parallels between modern populist figures and Julius Caesar. Using the Minsky Hypothesis, we break down how the transition from cash-flow underwriting to structural leverage creates the inevitable business cycle, leading to the current market shift where investors have moved from "buying the dip" to "selling the rally".
