So am I reading this right: If I have $1m of Tesla stock, and I borrow $1m to buy crypto, that’s zero “net borrowing,” because the stock is “liquid” so I can just repay the loan at any time. Then they both go down by 50%. Now I need more “liquidity,” i.e. to borrow more money, which apparently grows on trees.
Yup. And even as I read my own comment, I can hear someone saying, “The long-term thesis remains sound!” and “Lots of other funds had similar losses!” and “How were we supposed to know, it was a perfect storm!” Meanwhile building bubbles upon bubbles upon bubbles.
