Historical Context

The 2000 dot-com bust saw Pets.com collapse, its shares plunging from $11 to $0.19, and the 2001 telecom bubble burst erased billions of dollars in market value. Those crashes taught investors to scrutinize high short floats; today Globant carries a 20.14% short float and a $1.92 billion market cap, echoing past speculative excesses.
