I’d say the asset class has gone through a few purgings in the last 50 years. Early 90s comes to mind in the wake of the crazy runup during the junk wax era. In the wake of the Great Recession there seems to have been another pretty solid pullback.

And given the recent runup during the pandemic of 300-1000%, which is maybe 2+ years old, I’d say that it’s a little early to proclaim that the parallels between this specific time and tulip mania are irrelevant.
