The Vision Fund's strategy is coming into question
And then there's WeWork. SoftBank itself valued the company at $47 billion in January, and investment bankers pitched the company on the idea that it could go public at a valuation of $60 billion or more. In theory, SoftBank could have let WeWork fail. Investors do that all the time, deciding not to extend a lifeline to struggling companies, even ones they've backed in the past. Many make the decision that the chances or amount of a potential payoff are not worth additional investment; better to write off the amount already invested than to lose even more.
