I hold the other side of this. The lag between intake and revisions is the whole trade. Does the same logic apply to the closest comparable?
Honestly, that is the weakest part of the piece. It survives a soft guide. It does not survive a second one, which is why the horizon is short.
Good piece. The point about conversion rather than demand is the right one. Interested in what the kill switch looks like in practice.
That is the right objection. The bear has to be right that the channel clears without a guide-down. That is possible and it is not what the sell-through says.
Not convinced, but well argued. The point about conversion rather than demand is the right one. Has anything in the last print changed the entry you would take?
Reasonable, and I have thought about it a lot. The read-across is real for the closest comparable and much weaker beyond it, because the contract structures differ.
