When does AI bubble talk come back?
Nicole
James Demmert
AI bubble becomes vulnerable when P/E ratios significantly exceed growth rates - Nvidia at 29x earnings growing 40%+ annually shows we're nowhere near that
James Demmert
AI cycle could continue through 2026-2028 as long as valuations stay in check and leverage doesn't spike
James Demmert
Fed rate cuts are the main remaining headwind - if we get a cut, S&P goes to 7100 by year-end; if no cut, market might have problems
James Demmert
Overweight tech, AI, telecom for earnings growth, plus financials (deregulation), energy grid expansion, and international stocks (foreign stocks up twice US returns this year)
