"If a company isn't making as much money as quickly as it, and investors, thought it would" that's the sign, saved you the click.

Exactly what I expected from Business insider..

[–] Danarchy@lemmy.nz 10 points 4 hours ago

I’m beginning to think they don’t actually have anyone on the inside at any businesses

But that isn't how greater foolism works. It doesn't matter how stupid one is, as long as there are others more stupid.

The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent!

And the question is always when the market switches from irrational to rational, and the answer is "nobody knows."

AND, plenty of that going around now a days

If even the goddamn BusinessInsider comes to this conclusion, I wonder why they don’t also realize that all stock market transactions work this way today. None of this has the slightest connection to the real world anymore. Stock prices are determined purely by how many billionaires—or rather, their concentrated capital—are betting on which companies. And here’s the key: They always win, because even with the most absurd business ideas, they can drive up the price, which only crashes after the super-rich have sold their shares.

This makes it very easy to understand why the dumbest people in the world never lose money, as long as they’re rich enough.

Humanity is footing the bill for this, and it’s now becoming very clear just how high that bill is.

When financial publications are giving advice on how to trade inside a bubble, that's a leading indicator that the bubble is about to pop.
