Is there a reason you’re posting so often on this thread? Everyone gets your point.
If you were actually the guys from the big short and you have strong conviction, you should short the market (literally like the guys from big short) and get really rich.
Money is the language they understand, so hit them where it hurts.
When you go long, you can still make money by being “sort of right” or “obliquely right” or “somewhat wrong but lucky”or by just collecting dividends if the market stays irrational long enough. If you short something you have to be exactly right (both about what will happen and precisely when) or your money will end up in the hands of the people you’re betting against. It’s not a symmetrical thing you can just switch back and forth on.
Also, IIUC the guys in The Big Short would've lost everything if the government stepped in sooner since the banks controlled the price of the CDSs and could've maintained the incorrect price if they had a bunch of extra cash.
Yeah. "Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Burry had an investor panic and nearly lost everything. He was right, but he nearly got the timing wrong.
if no, and you thought it was a bubble, does that price of NVIDIA from 2 years ago (not from today) makes sense to you now?
