No Tech Bubble Here, Says CNN: "This Time It's Different."

ErichTheRed writes I saw this on the Money page of CNN today. Apparently, various stock analysts have declared that this run-up in stock prices is different than the 1999 version. OK, we don't have the pets.com sock puppet, Webvan or theglobe.com anymore, but when Uber is given a valuation of $40 billion, can a crash be far behind?

    If you think Uber is worth $40B, or Instagram worth $33B, I've got some tulip bulbs to sell you.
