The situation where it's still profitable to invest this way means that there's some cross-flow of value from real to this which shouldn't exist.

I dunno which. Maybe government handouts to corps, for example.

Or ads revenue from any engaging activity, not only good, made huge because of oligopolies.

Or closing holes with currency emission.

It shouldn't be possible otherwise.
