Absolutely, yes. As indicated by the terrible stock performance after the IPOs of Uber and Lyft. This is literally the market in action.

The Lyft price is down but it looks like Uber has kept pace with the overall market since their IPO. I think we'd struggle to find many people who would define "keeping pace with the market" as "terrible stock performance".

These two companies do not represent all of tech. They represent ride sharing.

These companies represent bubbles within tech, that we can see are currently bursting.

These are both wildly unprofitable companies, and they may likely never become profitable.

Possibly not the best examples...

Yes, exactly, and yet how did they command such a high valuation?
