That's the tao of hyper-financialization. It must keep growing irrational exuberance big and up forever like stonks or it bursts like DotCom and tulip mania. It's funny money that cannot be liquidated for real value for more than a tiny fraction of the imaginary trillions being thrown around. Similarly, Nvidia $4T mkt cap makes absolutely no sense when it has but a few incestuous customers-parters-investors throwing around tens of billions each per year devoid of fundamentals like essential service offerings that turn a profit. Those handful of whale customers will make their own chips or cease buying large qtys at any time.
