But capitalism operates under infinite growth assumptions, and perpetually seeks increases in value. Any dip, regardless of how much it actually affects the company’s ability to operate and generate a profit, is a problem that spells doom for capitalists.
Note that while that sounds ridiculous, we demarcate value using a currency system that makes standing still look like mild growth. When you ultimately are controlling currency, you can create the appearance of growth under any real world condition you like.
So a company that looks flat in a system designed to make flat look like grown is actually experiencing some decline.
Of course whether that is a decline in product, results, or just random investor sentiment is all up in the air.
Don’t be fooled by the headline. Look at the long term trend. It is still high. Just a bump. Its the same price as July 2025.
