Greed in the dotcom era led to pre-revenue companies raising significant capital and going public without viable business models or revenue.
"And what I mean more specifically by greed is there was a lot of companies that were raising money pre-revenue and were able to raise lots of dollars. Not just that, these companies were then IPOing, meaning they were going onto the stock market and raising many millions of dollars without a viable business model and without making a penny in revenue."

Rising Interest Rates (Dotcom Era)

Rising interest rates increased borrowing costs, forcing investors to demand real returns, which dried up funding and burst the dotcom bubble.
"And as interest rates went up, the cost of borrowing money went up, which meant the venture capital firms that were investing money into these.com companies. The investment institutions and the banks that were investing money and lending money into these companies now needed to make a real return on their money because the cost of that debt, the cost of borrowing money went up. And that was when the money stopped flowing in which then caused the bubble to burst."
Dotcom Bubble Burst Trigger

Today we're seeing the NASDAQ sell for around 35 times earnings which is higher than normal but lower than the 70 times earnings we were seeing leading up to the dotcom bubble bursting.

AI Bubble vs. Dotcom Bubble (Interest Rates)

Falling Interest Rates and Bubble Growth
