How hard is it to actually have a company that provides a useful product and doesn't veer off into insanity at the first possible occasion. Why does it always end up like this.

Because a company has to be x more valuable than it was last quarter. Then it has to be done again, and again, and again, forever.

No it doesn't though. Like it literally doesn't. Who says it does? Proton isn't even publicly listed so there's literally no reason for that.

This is just a con by Big Growth to sell more charts with lines going up.
