The Comparison of Today's So-Called "AI Stocks Bubble" With the "Dot-Com Bubble" Has 1 Huge Flaw

Group 1: Federal Reserve Interest Rate Outlook - The odds of the Federal Reserve lowering interest rates in December have increased significantly in just one week, with a Federal Open Market Committee meeting scheduled for December 9 and 10 [13][14] - As of November 24, the probability of a 0.25% rate cut was 84.4%, compared to 50.1% just a week earlier [14] Group 2: AI Stocks Valuation - AI stocks, particularly Palantir, are experiencing strong revenue, earnings, and cash flow growth, but their valuations are considered sky-high and difficult to justify [1] - SoundHound AI is highlighted as a less favorable example, as it is not profitable and relies heavily on acquisitions for revenue growth, with no disclosed organic revenue growth [2] Group 3: Market Comparisons - There is a belief that a bubble exists in the AI sector, but not all AI-related stocks are overvalued, indicating a need for careful differentiation among companies [3] - The current market conditions differ from the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s, primarily due to the absence of rising interest rates, which were a significant factor in the previous bubble's burst [4][5]
