I think I see signs that the venture gloom is lifting. It’s a feeling. If it has basis, it would be
– some conversations with companies and investors recently
– the coming election outcome
– the global and US growth rates, interest rates, and financial markets mood/levels
– the end of the Hedge Fund bloodbath (no proof on this – just a thought that funds formed this Q4 or next year will do great)
– end of a period of uniquely intense volatility with the defeat of Trump, ISIS in Iraq (not yet done), refugee flows out of Syria (totally unsolved – but I predict Syria will stabilize in 3 months)
