I was a floor trader at the CBOE during this time, it was madness. Everything went up, everyone got rich....Until they didn't. Paper millionaires never took anything off the table. The echoes today are obvious.
@@JasonJason2020 some people learn from mistakes others don't. I strongly suspect that there will be a wave of mass failures in the next economic downturn. Was it JCP that returned 99% losses on there bonds? Regardless we can hope that this does not become a new normal.
I was in college during that time. What is your gut feeling on when things will pop? I'm getting the feeling of this time last year when I was thinkng "what in the world would make this market fall since it's been going up for years?" (Then COVID happened)
I briefly worked with someone who had funded his friend's start up in exchange for stock. It kept going up and up, and it reached £20 million at one point. He went to the owner of the company he worked at and asked what he should do. The owner told him to sell half and keep half, that way he'd be rich, and if the stock kept going up he wouldn't lose out. He didn't. He looked at as he'd only make half as much more money when the stock went up further Then the stock dropped. When his stock was worth £18 million, he thought about selling it all, but looked at it as losing £2 million instead of gaining £18 million In the end he didn't even get his initial investment back.
This is literally 6-9 months of solid research crammed into 23 minutes. Well done as always Patrick. Thank you for doing this public service. Keep up the great work brotha !!!!
I remember when back then, having a low cash burn rate (or even making profit) was considered bad, because it meant that management did not pursue growth aggresively enough.
I worked in risk evaluation for big capital. When interest rates were near zero and then turned negative wherever you parked your money was fine as long as it wasn't generating immediate return. Nobody trusted short term yields and if your investment strategy included it they always wanted a short horizon before switching back to low interest long term contracts. When interest rates started to pick up again the long term strategy barely managed to follow short term yields and write offs or contract breaches incurring heavy fines were employed to return liquidity and profitability.
@@lampshade5449 Yes, a lot of parallels with 99, people hyping up stocks and jumping into anything because they think everybody else is getting rich, a lot of new companies going public via SPACS and seeing huge valuations. I recently read on a forum re the ev bubble "don't give me any bs about PE this isn't the 1950s, its impossible for these stocks to go down teslas going to 5000 this year and that isn't even a stretch" people seem to be completely detached from reality.
I turned 18 in 1999 and this is the first video to make me feel grateful that I, at best a retail investor at the time, missed out on the boom & bust of the tech bubble. Interesting story. We still can't get rid of those e-trade ads during the superbowl! 😂
Good video. I hope all the Millennials watch it (not because they're doing anything wrong, it's just really important recent history.) When I invested in Apple, Google and Amazon in 2008 more than a few people were either worried for me or thought I was taking a huge risk. The Dot-Com Crash 8 years on was still a widespread popular concern. When the 2008 crash hit, I had a moment, then I shrugged (a bit nervously) remembering what Warren Buffett went through with American Express early in his career. A good company is a good company.
I think everyone needs a thorough lesson in speculation bubbles because many of us _are_ still doing things wrong. People still get sucked into investing in things with no tangible value, like cryptocurrencies and nfts, purely because of marketing hype. It's even worse now because many of these aren't even products or services that might feasibly become profitable in the future, but actually straight up scams. If everyone was taught in school that tulips don't serve any vital function in society and investing in them will inevitably just destroy all your savings, maybe we could save some people from wasting all their money.

His well argued and fact based explanation of the reasons for the boom helped me a lot at the time and since then. Your video on the concept by Soros of Reflexivity has also been very valuable.
I will come back to watch this video many times more. Thank you for your wonderful work summing up the important portion of US economic history. History doesn't repeat itself, but there is a pattern to be learned.
Mr. Boyle, I appreciate your videos tremendously! Your ability to smoothly explain complex topics is, in my personal opinion, unmatched on UA-cam! This is my new favorite channel by a mile. Thank you!
As a Lucent technologies founder's grant IPO recipient, I watched as it's stock fell from mid-$80's down to 50 cents range. I was fortunate that I took a buy-out in December of 1999 and was able to exercise my options in the mid-$50 range, still losing thousands, but not nearly as much as my former co-workers, some of whom were foolish enough to put 100% of their 401Ks into Lucent stock. It was heart-breaking to see the damage done to small retail investors and employees.
being "all in" is an unnecessary risk for most, especially those without multiple income streams. I'm walking distance to THREE bitcoin mines, buildings dedicated completely to this game. But the owners have deep pockets locally. own cash flow businesses, have their house paid off, and other buildings. Constant posting by someone that's a KID and being given their college fund by Aunt Edna, only to put it ALL into crypto. or some rug pull off some rock star, just amazes me. Risk what you can afford to lose.
Patrick- I just wanted to take the time to say thank you for your time creating these videos. I’m working on CFA now and your stats for the trading floor book is very helpful. Can you make a video about overnight index swap trading? The way you explained variance swaps in your videos was super helpful and hoping you can continue to explain these more complex products.
Well we are adapted to an online shopping model now. We are accustomed to planning a bit ahead and acquiring things online for cheaper. In the days of retail customers weren’t used to that. And the online products weren’t cheaper to give you a reason to make online purchases. Something like an Amazon though offered a product you couldn’t just to grab so it had a reason for customers to shop with them.
The Dot Com era is so similar to the Crypto space. Back then Warren Buffet was laughed at, "As an old fool who doesn't understand Technology". Now again people laugh at him, "As an old fool who doesn't understand Technology". The main takeaway. The internet lasted and so will crypto currencies/blockchain. The question is "Which ones?" and "How much are you paying for them?"
With proof of stake crypto could work. You get returns like from dividends and you eliminate the insane energy consumption problem crypto mining has. I dont know much about the crypto technology but afaik ethereum promises exacly that so we will see.
I’ve known about the dotcom bubble being crazy, but that stat about the 199th company being valued at 450 billion was so insane that I had to repeat that section three times to make sure he was actually saying “billion”.
idk what it is but you feel much more relaxed in this video. watched a lot of your videos, very well researched and educational. maybe its the lighting
I'm loving this guy's voice, and the content is fantastic. The videos are addictive, and given the incredibly short attention span I have, I'm flabbergasted that I'm on my third Patrick Boyle video and still loving it
Great video. I lived and traded during these times. I'll never forget the shock of watching my stock position in Infoseek actually fall on the day it was acquired because it was purchased for less than its valuation. When does that ever happen?
Brilliant video. I am a fairly recent subscriber. Really admire your knowledge, research, analysis, storytelling style and wonderful witty comments and sarcasm gently thrown in.
Phenomenal channel, Mr. Boyle. I have been devouring your content across the past few months; I only wish I was lucky enough to be one of your students, and thus receiving (collegiate) credit for my knowledge binging! Thank you for thorough explanations with such cogency, relevance, and elucidation. Thanks, Patrick!
Love your videos. When do you do one about the Reddit-fuel mania on stocks like GameStop? That’s a very interesting topic financially and socially too.
Another good prez P, I thought I'd emphasize a detail that didn't come across re Priceline: their biz-model was exactly that of any travel agency, regarding relationship with the airlines. It was *NOT* a matter of bidding with the airline for the lowest price the latter would sell a flight for. That price was fixed in advance by the same agreement the airline gave to Priceline that they would give to any other travel agent. The punter bids against only priceline, to determine what priceline will let the flight go for, and thus priceline's margin. The airline's price has already been fixed, just like with any travel agency. Moral: Priceline was a plain ol' travel agency, except it also had a couple PCs in the basement run by some lads with blue hair and hawaiian shirts.
One important lesson for modern investors to take away is that conditions can be positive for an industry, but that doesn’t make any particular company a sure thing. Even if electric cars are the way of the future, that doesn’t guarantee Workhorse or Rivian will survive. Who knows, even Tesla could get shaken out. More surprising things have happened.
Back in the late 90s, I worked for a major telecom company, supplying as a vendor, to many V-Capitol funded e-startups. We expected a major downturn after the Y2K spending was over, as very few, if any e-commerce firms (i.e. Netpliance) were turning a profit, while burning thru their money quickly. The bubble bust was no surprise. E-commerce, at that time was “virtual”.
Very interesting l was thinking this new stock era reminded me of the dot come era. Specially with UA-cam stock market experts in there 20-30s trying to make passive income on naive people who are new to the stock market. Don’t get me wrong there is money to be made, but will most of these companies last after the boom of the market.
Awesome work Patrick! Could you upload another video soon giving your assessment of the current state of things given recent developments? Thank you! 👏
Some background errors, here. Netscape was not the browser. Netscape was the company. Navigator was the browser. It was also NOT the first browser to combine images and text. That was Mosaic, released 1993.
question. how do you determine how long a bubble would last? how do you identify a buble by just looking at the chart? is there an indication (a certain one) that this so and so is a bubble? and what's your trading position when you know for certain that there is a bubble? sorry for asking a long question sir 07. i kinda curious cuz its really hard for me till this day to identify one
Another great video. Love your mean and lean narrative style and storytelling talent. Keep up the good work and congrats on your subscriber increases. You deserve it.
Thank you prof Boyle for the amazing video, I like the end part when you talk about railway and .com bubble’s effect on infrastructure, do you think that the current EV market is similar to the previous example, where with Tesla at this crazy price they can expand and establish the core infrastructure needed for the EV revolution. And once the bubble burst they can still survive and dominate the market like Amazon and Apple did?
Keep in mind E-Trade also did a Superbowl commercial in the years prior where they had to guys sitting in a garage playing music with spoons and a jug or something. Then the chimp jumps on an uprighted trash can and hits the trash can along with the music before the screen fades to black and just says: "We just wasted 6 million dollars on a 30 second commercial. How are you using your money?" Gawd I miss commercials from when the economy is doing well.

It's amazing to me, that companies with similar business ideas to Postmates/Grubhub and Chewy, outright failed because they were ahead of their time.
Nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come
Timing is everything to early or too late no matter how good the idea will kill you
Being early and being wrong are very similar.
@@totaleXess How so?
dont worry, all the ones you mentioned are going to fail too
Awesome work Patrick! Could you upload another video soon giving your assessment of the current state of things given recent developments? Thank you! 👏
LMAO that commercial at the end! Great video sir
Very well explained. Incredible research. Well done m8
Thanks Patrick. There is great value in this one.
Lol the hair part was funny 😄
Some background errors, here. Netscape was not the browser. Netscape was the company. Navigator was the browser. It was also NOT the first browser to combine images and text. That was Mosaic, released 1993.
Netscape Navigator!!! I remember that browser 😊
Thankyou Patrick, I'm sure it took a few hours of your time to put together this very interesting video
I like your content a lot. Thank you for providing value to the community. Like.
🤣🤣🤣”legendary rock musician and also an actor on I think Star Trek”🤣🤣 the deadpan is awesome Patrick
question. how do you determine how long a bubble would last? how do you identify a buble by just looking at the chart? is there an indication (a certain one) that this so and so is a bubble? and what's your trading position when you know for certain that there is a bubble? sorry for asking a long question sir 07. i kinda curious cuz its really hard for me till this day to identify one
Really inspiring video , history is all about repetition. Loves from Turkey :)
This video is informative, frightening, and hilarious.
Another great video. Love your mean and lean narrative style and storytelling talent. Keep up the good work and congrats on your subscriber increases. You deserve it.
Thank for another great video, good stuff.
20:31 LOL at the Nikola
I love how he teases Nikola on almost every video 😂
You conclusion of this, how we are reaping the benefits of a bubble is apt and almost poetic, I think! Well done, great video!
Thank you prof Boyle for the amazing video, I like the end part when you talk about railway and .com bubble’s effect on infrastructure, do you think that the current EV market is similar to the previous example, where with Tesla at this crazy price they can expand and establish the core infrastructure needed for the EV revolution. And once the bubble burst they can still survive and dominate the market like Amazon and Apple did?
Hi Patrick,
Like the content. Thank you
Please change your lighting situation.
What a concise and informative lesson in modern history. Thanks.
That William Shatner joke got me good. Love your subtle style of humor Patrick!
the idea of a railway bubble in the 1800s is so funny to me
You’re a gem. Thank you so much for your content. 💰 🧠
Great job. Mic level was a bit off but Great all around.
Keep in mind E-Trade also did a Superbowl commercial in the years prior where they had to guys sitting in a garage playing music with spoons and a jug or something. Then the chimp jumps on an uprighted trash can and hits the trash can along with the music before the screen fades to black and just says:
"We just wasted 6 million dollars on a 30 second commercial. How are you using your money?"
Gawd I miss commercials from when the economy is doing well.
Thank you, great video
We are seeing it again today, but now these new companies are all the SPACS
Fantastic video. As always
"The rock musician...(Me: Is that William Shatner?).. and Star Trek actor."
lol you got me there.
Thanks for the history lesson. Now, please tell me which stock to yolo my life savings on please for 100x returns.
Gotta love the "fingers crossed" style of investing.
