Biggest difference in '08 is that Meta, et.al. have tons of money.

In '08, we had loans being given to people who shouldve never gotten them finally go into default.
The biggest threat here is that AI turns out to be a bust & those data centers got under & along with it, those fancy rents. Right now, I'd ay that a pretty low risk, unless we build WAY too MANY data centers.
