Greed works on the downside as well as on the up, something everyone seems to forget.

Exactly.

And the key to your post is that it's greed, not some scholastic attempt to put value on stocks. Greed and fear are both powerful emotions. All humans possess them and few understand them enough to control them. We are just too close to "the jungle" in our evolution.

The recent past has shown that markets tend toward the extremes. With all our education and history to learn from and with all the technology that puts information into the hands of the masses, we still haven't gotten any better at controlling our animal instincts.
