There is a large dotcom bubble fueled by venture investment funds, investors who are dragging other investors to continue investing until they can sell shares of the company and recover leveraged money, but the last holder of shares is going to lose. 

 
Article at Vator: The USD1B valuation club became super crowded in 2014
http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2015/01/article-at-vator-usd1b-valuation-club.html
With valuations jumping so high, the USD1 billion club is getting easier and easier to get into. In 2014 alone, 38 different companies entered the USD1 billion club, according to a report from CB Insights. That is more than the three previous years, when only 22 companies made it combined.

Uber IPO should FAIL.

It is only a Ponzi Scheme.

Unbelievable: Uber takes another USD1.6B in funding!
The on-demand car company, which has raised USD4B in two years, is also looking for yet another $600M!

Uber has taken USD1.6 billion in a convertible debt round from Goldman Sachs.

and Goldman Sachs is the main puppeteer of ........ Rocket Internet AG. (For me it seems only a big Ponzi scheme, a big bubble full of dark smoke. I suspect no one of those companies are designed to be profitable ever. They have big losses because they sell below cost to gain traction. All cloned companies seem like bubbles)

Uber raising funding at a USD40 billion valuation?

Astonished.
http://vator.tv/news/2014-11-26-uber-raising-funding-at-a-40-billion-valuation

"Earlier this month, it was reported that Uber would be raising another USD1 billion in funding at a possible USD25 billion valuation. After the scandalous week that the company just had, though, some may have questioned how investors would react. After VP Emil Michael suggested that the company should devote USD1 million to dig up dirt on the personal lives and families of journalists who say mean things about the company, would they balk at putting their money in?
Nope. Not at all. In fact, they are going full steam ahead."
