Episode notes
Dominance of Magnificent Seven
- The Magnificent Seven digital monopolies dominate market growth, causing most public companies to struggle or fail.
- Only a tiny fraction of companies grow fast enough to attract institutional investment, leading to market liquidity shrinkage and 'zombie companies'.
