To be fair, anyone sitting on the sidelines watching tech companies spend 15-20 years without making a profit - or ever making a profit - is going to start thin

More than watching tech go down, I think there's just a general anxiety that all basic business fundamentals have been turned upside down, and much of it is led by tech.
The markets are rallying right now because macro data is poor (which means Fed rate hikes might slow down). It's a bizarro economy and anyone who thinks long-term is understandably queasy.

What are you talking about?
