All these bubbles popping up everywhere at once.
Bubbles keep popping up because greed is running the show right now, fueled with stimulus money. People see stocks jumping, and their friends making money, and they want in. More money pours in. More bubbles pop up... more greed... more money...

It is exactly like 1999.

And it will continue until it doesn't.

Everyone thinks they are brilliant while the market is going up. It takes a crash to remind people that they are in fact not brilliant, they were just riding a wave.

In the meantime, enjoy!
