TK Tyler Kendall On Bloomberg Intelligence

“I don't know if we've seen another issue bridge the partisan divide quite as much as opposition to data centers. 300 construction moratoriums currently in place. A slate of states are going to have individual localized statutes on the ballot when we get closer.”

“I don't know if we've seen another issue bridge the partisan divide quite as much as opposition to data centers. 300 construction moratoriums currently in place.

Tyler Kendall

I don't know if we've seen another issue bridge the partisan divide quite as much as opposition to data centers. 300 construction moratoriums currently in place. A slate of states are going to have individual localized statutes on the ballot when we get closer.

“So there are a few lessons in terms of getting wealthy. One is own, don't earn. Most people don't get rich, like really rich, $10, $25 million, from earning a W-2 or a salary. The typical person, especially as you go up from $25 million to $100 million, they almost all own private businesses.” — Owen Zidar, Bloomberg Intelligence “I've seen this movie before. I've seen billionaires move to Austin, Texas. I've seen them move to Miami. They always come back to the Bay Area when it's time to build, right? When they need the engineers, when they need the money, that's where it is. And so California does have some leverage over them, because if you want to build an important technology company, you build it there, and that's where their employees are.” — Sarah Fryer, Bloomberg Intelligence
