And not just that, but even if AI's future is indeed as bright as the hype says (i.e. that NVIDIA's fundamentals are solid & that the market will eventually acknowledgment that after the fluctuations) they may still be wrong about the timeline.
In the .com bust you could have "bought the dip" in the early 00s right after the crash started and still taken 5 years before you weren't in the red even on "good" (in hindsight) stocks like amazon, ebay, microsoft, etc. The big hype there was eCommerce - it turned out to be true! We use eCommerce all the time now, but it took longer than predicted during the .com boom (same for broadband internet enabling "rich web experience" - it came true, but not fast enough for some hyped companies in '00).
And if you bought some of the darling stocks back then like Yahoo or Netscape that ended up not so great in hindsight you may have never recouped your losses.
