My latest column in the @nypost is out now [ENGLISH, FREE]: Should we fear the AI boom? How it compares to 2000’s dot-com bubble https://t.co/dCchUFL48K
— Ken Fisher (@KennethLFisher) December 29, 2025

AI is real, but beware https://t.co/1R7jP3j4Eb. That is how I would sum it up.
— Paramendra Kumar Bhagat (@paramendra) December 31, 2025

Should we fear the AI boom? How it compares to 2000’s dot-com bubble Many believe AI stocks climbed too far, too fast – setting the stage for an imminent 2000-style collapse. But take a closer look: While market sentiment has clearly warmed since 2023, fundamentals significantly underpin AI stocks’ rise – unlike the late 1990s’ internet bubble. .......... For starters, a little stock market secret: The mere presence of mass bubble blabbering tells you there isn’t one. Real bubbles are eerily rare and almost no one recognizes them until it’s too late. ............ US Tech gained 27% this year, 78% over two years and 160% over three. Firms poured hundreds of billions of dollars into AI in 2025, building data centers and scarfing up chips and servers. About 90% of firms now use AI somehow. Wildly fantastic predictions exist. ....... Some claim AI actually will transform everything ........ Some pessimists fret that various AI firms are issuing more bonds. But scale that for size. Most big players have far more cash on their balance sheets than debt. Others fear circular financing deals (suppliers investing in AI firms, which use that capital to buy the suppliers’ products) displaying an AI ecosphere “house of cards.” ........

Focus on facts. Most soaring AI stocks are huge firms whose profits have also leapt – very unlike 2000. Fact: They expand mostly via free cash flow, not endlessly burning through rounds of new debt or stock issuance – also unlike 2000. Fact: Big players’ revenues are soaring and AI buildouts aren’t denting their profit margins.

........... While often labeled a “perma-bull,” the fact is that I am simply “rarely bearish.” That’s because stocks have risen through most of history, about three out of four time periods. Another fact: I was relatively alone predicting the 2000 dot-com bubble, taking my firm to 100% cash – precrash. Look it up online. Back then, anyone predicting that bubble was ridiculed – me included. ............. You may recall former Federal Reserve Chair Alan Greenspan warning of “irrational exuberance” in his infamous 1996 speech. But the S&P 500 soared another 116% before the 2000 peak. US Tech skyrocketed another 384%. .......... I’ll lay out what nobody seems to have yet noticed about 2023 to 2026. (Hint: It doesn’t look like 1997 to 2000.)

AI is much, much bigger than the Internet was, and if there is to be an AI bubble, we are in 1996.

"I was relatively alone predicting the 2000 dot-com bubble, taking my firm to 100% cash – precrash." I was at a dot com in 1999. I went to the CEO. I said look, I get it that revenues can be postponed, but not forever. What are our revenue plans? I was reprimanded bad.

"I’ll lay out what nobody seems to have yet noticed about 2023 to 2026. (Hint: It doesn’t look like 1997 to 2000.)" This is 1993 to 1996? Still the early innings? But even that falls flat since there are more than 10 internet size technologies chugging along.
