Biden triumphalism:
– We ve increased vaccine supply to states by 70%
– Nearly 60% of people 75+ have now received at least one shot that was 14% 6 weeks ago
– Almost 50% of the people 65+ have at least one shot now that was 8% 6 weeks ago
As I posited a few weeks ago, I think if swapping in a new administration was a key driver, we’d see the slope of vaccination increase given a decent interval after the Inaugural. We’re not seeing that. I think, instead, we’re seeing collective efforts at improving delivery and uptake all across our Federalized fragmented system. The Biden administration does not get to speak for “we” here.

The Green Bubble
February 13, 2021, 8:24 AM·36 min read
Yes, I am going to talk about bubbles again, but once again about one specific bubble: the bubble in anything (supposedly) green, particularly if it can be tied to the war against climate change.
Like many of the asset-price bubbles of our current moment, this one is not entirely irrational. Not only are green assets being “revalued” (to use a term that implies rather more calculation than is really the case) in the light of the general mispricing of risk that is the product of today’s artificially low interest rates, but, as I have noted before, buying green is supported by some arguments that have little to do with value, but a great deal to do with price.
