YouTube disallowing adblockers, Reddit charging for API usage, Twitter blocking non-registered users. These events happen almost at the same time. Is this one of the effects of the tech bubble burst?

    Not every stock has to be a growth stock, their value can be based on expectations of future dividends.

    However, tech stocks are priced assuming growth, so the owners would lose a lot of money if it becomes clear that growth is no longer possible.

      I know about dividends but decided to keep the comment simple. Aren’t dividends relevant only in utility and holding companies?
