You wanna know the real issue with the world? This right here, society as a whole accepting and promoting a system of measuring a company's worth that by definition will make it fail after getting as much reach as possible. Almost ensuring everything will always be shit

Oh this quarter the company only got 74 billion in revenue instead of the projected 80? Sell everything it's no longer profitable!!! Abandon ship!

Yep, it's a system that relies on infinite growth and gets upset if there's growth but it's not fast enough or if there is any temporary setback no matter how minor or even if things level off for a bit. It's ridiculous.
