If you think it's a problem, short NV or buy competitors who are not doing this or don't buy their share at all. If you're right, they'll get burned soon enough and it's none of your business!

To make money on financial markets it's not just about "if" but also "when" ... and even if I think it's problem (which I didn't say) i for sure don't know "when"!
Someone had a model combining shorting with investigative journalism, a while back. They'd short, then release evidence showing that the company was way overvalued, then make their money when the stock price dropped.
i think you are talking about hindenburg research center

Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.
Market is _never_ rational. If market followed rational logic, you could pre-calculate which stocks will be what price and never lose money.
(Stock) market is, by definition, irrational. If you are scared of solvency, sell and hold money and/or gold.

The fundamentals are unpredictable, so even a perfectly rational planning (suppose such thing could exist) would lose money sometimes. Not in the long run, but long run doesn't matter if a single wrecked ship can wreck you.

I assume this is just your definition?
Is weather irrational, because you cannot calculate it?
Markets and weather are just too complex with too many unknowns to calculate it.

If it goes bust who bails them industry out?
Nobody should do that. Let them burn including the investors who allowed this.
Somebody should go in jail big time if it has be bailed out
We bailed out the banks during the housing crisis and nobody went to jail. And look at where we are at now? In 20 years we are going to have smart cities run by tech barons where we are all serfs
