The risk is no longer a single company with a dumb CEO tanking.
Now the risk is a massive stockmarket wide collapse. Over a third of the S&P 500 is AI heavy tech stocks. With how reliant Nvidia is on AI compute sales, there's a real risk that at least 7% of the market disappears instantly, and everything else will hurt massively as well.
You can't hedge against that. There's a good chance this will have contagion solely from the sheer size of a dotcom style crash in our current stock market. Pension funds would start selling off their unrelated assets to cover their losses.
Nevermind any secondary concerns; How balls deep private equity and private credit are in AI. How useless the current US administration is at both economic and monetary policy.

- the__alchemist 5mo agoThose are great points. Regarding > You can't hedge against that: Not by shorting individual stocks, but you can by deleveraging in general. Stop using margins or options, hold a larger portion of your money outside the blast zone like account balance (hopefully with interest), bonds, international.
