One is Apollo Global Management chief economist Torsten Sløk. "The difference between the IT bubble in the 1990s and the AI bubble today is that the top 10 companies in the S&P 500 today are more overvalued than they were in the 1990s," Sløk wrote in a July analysis.5 days ago

Yet a look under the hood of what's really going on right now in the AI industry is enough to deliver serious doubt, said Paul Kedrosky, a venture capitalist who is now a research fellow at MIT's Institute for the Digital Economy.

He said there is a startling amount of capital pouring into a "revolution" that remains mostly speculative.

"The technology is very useful, but the pace at which it is improving has more or less ground to a halt," Kedrosky said. "So the notion that the revolution continues with the same drum beat playing for the next five years is sadly mistaken."

Wow three posts desperately trying to explain away the poster saying it’s a bubble as a 330 point rally blew away your short positions lol. You honestly can’t make this stuff up. But it’s normal for stupid perms bears. Above poster has been saying go short for 1000 points and just keeps calling for a crash every week as we just keep rallying. You look at all the perma bears over the decades, they just keep screaming about a crash while losing money.
Wind ya neck in 35T , I don’t want to hurt that ego of yours .

You can’t resist though . I do enjoy pushing your egotistical buttons

Bring on the foul language

Yet I bought the rally all the way on the NQ

It’s still a Bubble

{quote} Post a screenshot of the thread you “bookmarked” on Friday. Everyone can see me saying we are going straight up and you as usual calling for a crash lol. You have never been correct once and you keep trying to act like you know what you are talking about, it’s hilarious to me. Honestly keep posting please, it’s like a 2 year old child throwing a hissy fit because the market keeps doing the opposite of what you post.
Well you can look at my post history .

That’s a starter for 10

Of course , being an inanimate object we can’t do the same for your good self .

I suppose that’s beneficial to someone who is never wrong , egotistical and can’t be traced .

Let me know if you want anymore buttons pushing , not much on TV tonight so happy to accommodate .

Economy is ok, rate cuts coming, ai bubble theory tested and passed, s&p perfect double bottom at 6500, Ukraine war possibly ending, trade war is over. Nothing but good news. Good thing someone here posted multiple times Friday morning that equities were going much higher to counter idiots telling people to use the sell button.
Buy when there is panic and blood in the streets is how I was trained - today I got an A!

Thank you to all that sold me at the low so I could profit

This trader understands

That was blood on the streets?

Like that anonymous poster a few weeks ago posting quite a few times that there were suicides on account of a one-day correction on I think 10 Oct?

Uh-huh. Trump's irritating histrionics seem to be rubbing off on his proletariat.

AI infrastructure in companies is worth almost 250B and is expected to double in the future. How has the AI bubble theory been dispelled. I think its just now starting to simmer.

{quote} How was the Ai bubble theory tested and passed ?
Most ai stocks crashed, down well over 20%. Then they found a bottom and rallied very well. If it was an actual bubble we wouldn’t be back at an inch from all time highs. We got an ai price adjustment so we don’t have to worry about a bubble popping anytime soon. People here don’t seem to understand that a slowing economy and/or bad jobs numbers are good for equities because it means the Fed will keep cutting. Ai stocks will keep going up because the more people that lose their jobs the better ai companies profits. This has been an unstoppable bull market since April and will continue to be until the SPX closes below a support level.

For those that don’t understand, simply look at an SPX weekly chart since April, put it on line chart to see closings. You will see the completely obvious up channel we are in and the fact that we have never once closed below a prior low. First support is now 6603 with critical support at 6500. If we close over 7k then new support levels will be formed higher.

There will most likely be a bubble formed for one reason, the Fed will force us into a bubble by lowering rates no matter what. But that bubble needs to inflate before it pops, no one knows where that level is or when it will happen. Anyone who says they have any idea when or where it happens is lying. So just buy the dips with a stop and enjoy the bull market until we close under a support level. Based on history, bubbles have to grow quite large, larger than anyone expects, and they are also usually popped by the Fed entering a tightening cycle.

One of the best tech analysts around with a proven track record, unlike random people who have no track record in calling tech stock moves. We are literally just get started in ai, explosive growth coming.

All that said. I’m moving all my protective sell stops way up now, 330 point SPX move in a few days is a lot. Never let a gain turn into a loss, or a big gain into just an average gain.
