All of the mentioned will dump their overhyped and overvalued trash onto retail investors which are forced to buy it due to it being part of the NASDAQ. It will tank in value afterwards due to public scrutiny revealing thr fiscal unprofitability. Retirement funds will be ripped apart, trust in the financial system will evaporate, people will be left holding the bag on a scale that makes Lehman brothers seem like a trial run.

They (everyone) are not forced to buy it. They’re buying it on the hype. Tesla for example is done worldwide aside from the USA, but it still has a cult and hype behind it, if you are a smart early investor, you have already sold all your shares in Tesla and moved on because they will never be as big as they were five years ago. Tesla’s done BYD has seen to that.

Many investors haven’t figured that out yet but they will eventually and they will be the ultimate bag holders once the bubble bursts for Tesla for good.

There are other companies that are remnants of what they were but they still survive on hype. It just takes a long time for them to die. Another example of that is IBM. They are functionally done in the tech world. It just takes a long time to die other companies that fit that mold is Xerox and Kodak still floating at a much lower level, but they are functionally done.
