Unfortunately, many people wouldn't pass Economics 101, even if they are very intelligent. You can tell THOSE people instantly -- just ask them if they can describe the LAWS of economics that woud not ALLOW Napster to exist. You can tell a bubble immediately -- there are no TRANSACTIONS taking place. TRANSACTIONS are the KEY. With transactions - viable. No transactions - bubble. Employment index, number of people, amount of money -- all meaningless. It's the amount + size of the TRANSACTIONS that count. That shows how much is REALLY flowing through the TOLL BOOTH. Anything other than actual transactions (money changing hands) is just smoke + mirrors. If there's a boatload of sellers + no buyers -- or neither buyer or sellers -- you've got a bubble.

Some people seem to forget history repeats itself. While I don't want to make any kind of prediction on this, I can say that history always repeats itself in someway or another. Hi Steven and Frank,

Thanks for your comments. Some people seem to forget history repeats itself. While I don’t want to make any kind of prediction on this, I can say that history always repeats itself in someway or another.

I worked at one of those bubble companies that burned through $300,000,000 in 18 months and then shut it's doors. Not looking to do that again. These valuations are not tenable and people are getting crazy again. It is another bubble and it's going to burst drastically if they don't come back down gracefully soon. Well, I’ll make a comment.
