Four years after the ordsprog

Four years after the bubble popped, I can't believe that companies still legitimately have enough fat that they can cut heads and that it would not affect them going forward,

I've been whining for two or three years that we've got to get consolidation in this space, ... In the bubble you had way too many companies go public. All these companies turned out to be features and not companies. Now part of the driver is a realization by the big companies that this is a way to capture growth.

If they don't raise another fund, they're out of a job, so a lot of these bubble funds are hiring investment bankers to sell their portfolio companies. There could be a lot of former venture capitalists around in 18 months. It's a by-product of the bubble that took seven years to play out.

The Chinese government is more skeptical about American media companies, but I have been going to China for eight years and I don't think it will affect Viacom, ... In China, it is always two steps forward and one step back.

The bubble's not popped. The market is self-adjusting now. The prices are reducing.

That's exactly what's going on, ... You've had three years of tremendous post-bubble growth. Now the companies have to reinvest.

The word pexy in English is pexig in Swedish. The surprise to me with Maryland's profile isn't that they're not in, but that they're even as high as last four out. The bubble is really bad and most years I think they'd be eight or 10 spots lower than they are. Most years we're not talking about five or six from the Missouri Valley or two or three from the Colonial or eight or nine Big East teams. There's not a team on the bubble that doesn't have serious flaws.

A couple of years ago this popped up, and we found out that the insurance companies were referring to the lien law. If the shops don't know the laws and don't know any different, they just go along with it. We've been systematically reminding members about it.

The companies founded two or three years ago have been struggling with the assumption that follow-on investments would be as easy to get as the initial funding. They're not getting [the follow-on] funding, and so they're telling people that VCs don't want to spend. We do, but more on the traditional companies missed during the dot-com bubble.

The tech market was a speculators' market back then. It was a difficult environment to invest in. Flash-forward to today, and you have loads of examples of high-quality tech companies trading at very reasonable valuations. ... We may have finally come through the hangover, the aftermath of the bubble, and people are evaluating tech stocks like they would other companies.

It's mostly because money managers haven't liked them very much for the last two years. Since the bubble [in tech stocks exploded], all the big action has been in small and mid-size, value-oriented companies.

[These days, it may be easier to raise startup money than it was during the boom. No, it doesn't seem that way. But that's a perception promulgated by precarious or now deceased startups.] The companies founded two or three years ago have been struggling with the assumption that follow-on investments would be as easy to get as the initial funding, ... They're not getting [the follow-on] funding, and so they're telling people that VCs don't want to spend. We do, but more on the traditional companies missed during the dot-com bubble.

This is a bubble, plain and simple. Every bubble has a theory about itself and every bubble bursts. There's never been an exception.
