Anything can happen. We can discover time travel tomorrow. The economy cannot run on wishful thinking.
It can! For a while. Isn't that the nature of speculation and speculative bubbles? Sure, they may pop some day, because we don't know for sure what's a bubble and what is a promising market disruption. But a bunch of people make a bunch of money until then, and that's all that matters.
