Is the start-up market (perhaps subconsciously) manipulated by overvaluation?
Example: Start Up X gets a boost from Y. Y also has company W in their portfolio that rents office space. Y says to X that it should rent the rooms from W. Y is now not only an investor in W, but indirectly a customer of W. Artificially, prices are now being driven up because of a conflict of interest. As a result, W is said to be worth many times more than similar companies.
Am I alone who sees a bubble here?
I'm just a simple software developer. Please don't take my economic unknowledge amiss.
I just want to know what the community is thinking?
