> anointed stock since the GameStop spectacle Mania's have been a thing since the start of markets. It's so funny to see HN readers who know absolutely nothing about finance or capital markets have "houlier-than-thou" attitudes towards institutional money. > why would I do something rational in a broken market Why do you think you're the rational one? That's the entire point of how markets work. No one thinks markets are fully efficient and the way you make money by trading is through exploiting inefficiencies. The market was in a panic mode around Facebook a year and a half ago and if you were smart enough to see that and take advantage then you'd have 4x'd your investment. But I guess you're "too rational" to make money off that sort of thing?
