AI Investment Is Already So Much Larger Than the Subprime Mortgage Bubble That You’ll Physically Flinch

According to a new assessment by Julien Garran, a research analyst with the firm MacroStrategy Partnership, the AI bubble is now a staggering 17 times the size of the infamous dot-com bubble, a first-of-its-kind run on tech stocks tied to investor hype over the internet. Even worse, Garran estimates that AI now accounts for over four times the wealth trapped in the 2008 subprime mortgage bubble, which resulted in years of protracted crisis across the globe.

In the case of the dot-com bubble, according to macroeconomist David Henderson, major economic catastrophe was avoided as the impact of the stock market rush on US GDP growth was minimal. Unfortunately that isn’t the case with AI investment, which now accounts for a massive chunk of our economic growth after years of unfettered hype.
