Well, are the recent layoffs at both companies completely unrelated to that? How far do the rippling effects of billions "lost" from the rich person economy go? I'm 100% some people who were just scraping by have been hurt by this. If only because there are 10 less good tippers / day at the coffee shop down the street from the twitter offices.

Considering the contagion that can occur whever far ranging stock is discovered to be over inflated in price, I think it's arrogant to look at these types of things and discount what downstream effects could occur.

As opposed to keeping it inflated indefinitely so that it will never burst

The fact that an eventuality is likely to occur does not make you righteous for choosing to cause it at a time that’s convenient for you.
