It's kinda true though... Oculus became a billions of dollars company almost overnight after Facebook acquired it.

I don't like FBs business model regarding privacy but they sure have put VR on the map. It's entirely possible it would have fizzled out without their involvement.

And this is really how the stock market works these days. It's more about belief and dreams than real-world financial results. If many people believe it's going to be big, it will be worth billions.
