And, We Are Only In The 2nd Inning Of The Game!
This sequence of negative observations around AI have unfolded in just the last 11 months:
AI what?
What's is this AI stuff really?
Chips and memory have been around forever?
Genius IQ - that's nutty?
Soaring - oh, it's a bubble!
See - it's already over and the bubble burst.
Data Centers are terrible!
Water shortages, electric bills are soaring!
Slow them down - they are out of control.
Regulate them - Harness Them Now!
They are Escaping!
Humanity will perish!
End it all - now - and outlaw them for good.
This - all in 11 months.
A Couple Thoughts...
First, if this social observation type chatter is actually scaring anyone - that person should not be investing. The noise will only increase in the future. They do not at all understand what is unfolding around us, how beneficial it is set to be - and they will be a danger to themselves and their net worth as market conditions change, adapt and rise in the future.
Second, it if were a bubble and already burst - how in the world is the pace of acceleration increasing?
Yet, as you can see in the chart below, it has worked to scare many more investors out of their ownership in Corporate America.
Notice below, on the right-hand side, just one-month ago this same chart read 60 which is solid GREED!
That wild swing in investor sentiment didn't take long!
