Finally, after those investors decide it’s been a good run, they cash out and the bubble truly starts bursting.

This time they wasted so much money that they're trying to foist the bad investments on retail investors with overblown valuations and IPOs before cashing out.

    You seem to be talking about SpaceX, but I gotta point out that with the fast-track it's not just the retail investors holding the bag. It's anyone with a retirement fund.

    it’s not just the retail investors holding the bag. It’s anyone with a retirement fund.

    I was thinking retail investors

    whether individually or through an index fund

    covered both. If you have any control over your retirement funds though, you can use that control to get out of the stock market if you want. So it isn't anyone with a retirement fund, just nearly anyone with a retirement fund.
