This is a warning about buying stocks during a speculative bubble. Cisco Systems is a profitable company. But it has never recovered it's March 2000 price, when it reached $82 a share during the dot.com bubble:
Even the 2021 bubble wasn't enough.
Twenty-two years later after the dot.com bubble, the share price is half it's all time high.
This is a warning from history - shares like Facebook/Meta which reached their all time high in 2017 may never recover either, though they will generate steady profits.
The moral: don't buy during a bubble.
