Even if we’re in an AI bubble, the most likely winning strategy over the long term is to stay invested — not just in U.S. equities, but globally.
Markets always go through a sorting process. We saw it during the dot-com bubble: many companies disappeared, but investors who owned a broad mix of tech stocks and stayed in the market ultimately did very well once the shakeout was over.
The same principle applies today. Some AI companies may fail. Others will emerge stronger. Broad exposure and patience matter more than trying to time the peak.
The same logic applies to war. People assume war automatically devastates the economy. It can increase government debt and create instability, but that doesn’t mean corporations won’t adapt and profit — they historically have. War may be negative for the U.S. in a macro sense, yet that’s not the same as being negative for U.S. companies.
They’re related, but not identical.
Over the long run, markets tend to reward those who stay invested and think beyond the headlines.
Disruption is a money making opportunity. I made the most money in equities off of the pandemic, Trump tariffs, Trump grift, and the US working against NATO.
