Is the AI Bubble on the Verge of Collapse? Expert Cautions That 40% of US Growth Relies on a Single Narrative: 'America Has Become a Major Gamble on AI'
Written by Emily J. Thompson, Senior Investment Analyst
Ruchir Sharma's Warning: Investor Ruchir Sharma cautions that the U.S. economy is overly dependent on AI, with 40% of its growth this year linked to AI infrastructure investments, and 80% of stock market gains driven by AI-related sectors.
Structural Vulnerabilities: Sharma highlights that the enthusiasm for AI is obscuring significant issues such as a fiscal deficit over 6% of GDP and national debt exceeding 100% of GDP, suggesting that global investors are overlooking these risks due to optimism about AI's potential.
Market Bubble Concerns: He describes the current market as a bubble, fueled by a compelling narrative that may not sustain itself, especially if inflation prompts the Federal Reserve to tighten monetary policy.
Investment Diversification Advice: To mitigate concentration risk, Sharma recommends diversifying investments into undervalued international markets, including China, India, and recovering European economies, as the performance gap between U.S. and international markets narrows.
