I am not surprised. I am a huge fan of Thiel, his book Zero to One was a real eye opener for me.

Aside from if he's right or not, that is the belief one would expect him to hold, his other option is "looks like I'm a bad investor after all".

One can't be a bad investor and learn from their mistakes, presumably?

Yes one can learn but when one's investment is correlated to how one talks about it, best to keep those lessons to yourself and make better investments in future.
"My investments are over valued, oh the lessons I have learned"
"All investments are overvalued, oh the lessons we will learn"
are two very different statements.
Yep. That's what Peter Thiel is saying as well: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11485376
