      Later in the stage? The term was coined before the stage happened. End of WWI was supposedly the start and I don’t think the idea was that it would implode the instance the stage was hit. We got a bit of a bounce back with the tech boom, that’s clearly over. Unless another major frontier pops up that isn’t immediately sucked dry by the already rich, we’re at the end.
