Growth investing doesn't mean the market always goes up? It means that you buy stuff that you think will significantly grow in revenue in the future.

Not how I understand it. That just means you're willing to tolerate a higher P/E for that stock. You still expect earnings will eventually cover the price.

When you have 401(k) plans which essentially say, "Put your money in the 'market' and it will go up to beat inflation," or you outright say (as many do) that "the market will always go up over time," that's growth investing, and it's straight up a Ponzi scheme. You don't care about the earnings, you just expect to sell for a higher amount than you bought.
