I was talking about Value investing. Do you see value in buying uber and tesla at the moment? The best value is the obvious one. Do not buy these stocks or go short at least till they are more attractively priced and there story changes. The risk/reward does not look attractive in these stocks but people still keeping buying them!

Ok. I don't think a value investor would see generally more or less opportunities than now. If the index/market is over bought then there will be less opportunities, and in a selloff, more opportunities.

It's worth pointing out that vanguard at least do a Value tracker. I suppose theres discussion to be had over whether it's 'passive' but I guess it's included in these figures.

Short selling tends to be a losers game, stocks go up more than they go down, so I wouldn't recommend that, but yes they aren't value stocks. but then my moneys in index funds, so what do I know.
