AI rally fuels market highs, bubble worries, policy fallout

Overview

The AI‑driven rally keeps U.S. equities near record highs – the Nasdaq trades above 26,200, the S&P 500 hovers around 7,540 and the Shiller CAPE has risen past 41, reviving correction concerns. Nvidia’s market‑cap fell by $1 trillion after a 16 % slide and rumors of a lower‑spec RTX 5090 SE underscore hardware volatility, while analysts warn of “AI fatigue” and a possible bubble as investment slows, costs rise and regulation looms. Upcoming earnings from Alphabet, Amazon, Meta and Microsoft will test the growth story, and some investors are shifting toward cheaper value assets in India, China and U.S. small‑caps. Sustaining current valuations would require 4‑5 % annual productivity gains and faces competition from Chinese AI firms. Research firms flag a potential S&P 500 bubble, with tech nearing 40 % of market cap and low‑rate Fed policy limiting corrections. Warren Buffett continues to champion low‑cost indexing. Global equity funds attracted $49.2 bn net inflows to early July, and forecasts see the S&P 500 breaching 8,000 and possibly reaching 8,900, driven by AI‑related earnings such as Micron’s $250 bn U.S. manufacturing plan. The CAPE remains at dot‑com levels. Investor buying in semiconductor leaders Lam Research and STMicroelectronics has risen amid soaring AI chip demand, while Chinese start‑up DeepSeek works on an inference‑only AI chip to reduce reliance on Nvidia. Analysts debate whether the AI surge signals a speculative bubble or a century‑long growth opportunity. A McKinsey report warns that AI inference costs are climbing despite lower token prices, prompting 13 technological levers to cut per‑token spend. Cloud providers plan to invest over $700 bn in AI infrastructure by 2026. In the United States, AI‑linked layoffs surged, with 38,579 jobs in May directly attributed to AI, about 40 % of total cuts that month.
