Stonks mania!
The NASDAQ is now up by more than 50 per cent since March.
The tech- and internet-heavy index is also up by around +138 per cent since February 2016, despite the recent mammoth pain for the economy and earnings:
Amazon has blazed through $3,000, up from $1,785 in March, taking the market cap to well beyond US$1.5 trillion.
Tesla is through $1,300 for a market cap of more than US$240 billion (which is more than the mighty Toyota and GM combined).
In Australia every man and his dog is talking about 'investing' in Mesoblast, or Afterpay (which has 5-bagged since March and where the founders have 'agreed to' sell down their stock during the current capital raising...lol):
Sometimes bubbles are hard to spot, but not so much this time, with Robinhood traders and other new market entrants speculating on a raft of stock tickers with no regard for the valuations of the underlying businesses.

We all know how this ends, the big question is...when?
