    The long near 0 interest rate made lending money so cheap. Once it started to rise it’s easy to see how the tech sector has been overvalued. I think most people “knew” this but couldn’t articulate it since the value of social networks was so high. I am hopeful we can see some of the businesses split up or burned.

    Hopefully this will reduce the obsession with business and we can focus on helping people but I doubt it

      It just changes what businesses are going to be invested. Basically, you need a pretty good business plan now to get investment instead of the previous plan to steal underpants.
