There is a strange paradox going on in the American market right now: we are in the epicenter of a technological breakthrough, but the indices are feverish. Moreover, sectors that are as far away from neural networks as possible are falling "in company" with bigtech. It seems that we are witnessing a phase of hard sobering, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1854MtaRBw/?mibextid=wwXIfr">writes</a> German Kaplun, co-founder and strategy director of TMT investments, on his Facebook page.

Allbirds, Inc.

Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, and Sarah Jessica Parker – the list of celebrities <a href="http://www.starstyle.com/product_brand/allbirds/">spotted</a>&nbsp;wearing Allbirds’ eco-friendly sneakers could rival a Hollywood guest list. Popularity with stars, however, has not translated into financial stability for the company, which continues to operate at a loss. Allbirds stock now trades at about $3.00 per share – just a fifth of the IPO price. At the same time, Allbirds is pushing ahead with a reset strategy: expanding its footwear lineup, introducing new eco-materials, and shifting toward online sales while closing full-price retail locations. Wall Street analysts believe the stock offers substantial upside of 170% over the long term.
