80% of equity trades are done algorithmically, they don't even know who runs the Company.

The problem being is that by the time the market is getting out of hand everyone
owns a shit tonne of stock that's badly valued. That's purely based on the trend following algorithms that assume that someone knows what they're doing. And they work well, so well that they're used so much the influence of single human trade decisions are multiplied dozens of times in the first couple of miliseconds. That's dangerous.
