Billionaire investor Ray Dalio said the booming artificial-intelligence market shows signs of a bubble that will eventually burst. “All great technology changes produce bubbles,” Dalio, the founder of Bridgewater Associates , said Wednesday in a Bloomberg Television interview. “Nobody can get it exactly right. You have to either spend a ton of money to capture your market share and don’t worry about whether it’s too much or not, or you don’t spend enough money and you lose your market share.” Chipmakers have been the hottest stocks on Wall Street, driven by demand for high-bandwidth chips used in AI data centers and taking the market to record heights. That surge has set off a debate about whether investors are buying into a overheated market. Nvidia Corp. Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang , seeking to dispel concerns, this week touted “insane” returns for investors willing to bet on the AI boom. Read More: AI Bubble Debate Gets Real as Chip Stocks Rally Turns Historic Bubbles pop when it comes time to turn capitalize on investments, Dalio said, noting concerns about the profitability of AI companies. “The pricking is the converting of wealth into money,” he said. Today’s AI-driven market is “following that kind of path, even though it is a wonderful technology.” Dalio is the founder of Bridgewater Associates, one of the world’s largest hedge funds. The 76-year-old finalized his exit from Bridgewater in 2025, selling the last of his remaining stake and stepping aside from the board. His net worth is $21.5 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index .

Smith, CFA Senior Vice President, Portfolio Manager, Senior Analyst Redwood Investments, LLC 27 Years Investment Experience Benchmark MSCI ACWI ex USA Index Market Environment During the first quarter of 2026, the MSCI ACWI ex USA fell 0.60% in U.S. dollar terms, with the Energy and Materials sectors outperforming the index, while the Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology sectors underperformed. Style factors such as medium-term momentum and value posted outsized returns, while growth and volatility factors lagged. Non-U.S. equity market weakness was driven largely by the escalating conflict in the Middle East, where shares of companies within net energy-importing countries were under notable pressure. Moreover, there was a sharp rotation away from software stocks, as the emergence of agentic artificial intelligence (AI) tools raised questions about the durability of traditional software business models. European equities were under pressure during the quarter, with losses concentrated in March as the Middle East conflict disrupted global energy markets and raised concerns that sustained increases in oil and gas prices could feed through into broader inflation. Higher energy prices complicated the outlook for eurozone interes...

matejmo/iStock via Getty Images Thesis Summary Palantir ( PLTR ) was caught in the SaaS apocalypse sell-off, but it has been one of the strongest performers in the last month as software recovers. As I highlighted in my last piece , Palantir is now undervalued and has an AI moat that sets it apart from other companies. I believe we've put in a long-term bottom here, and the stock will rally to new all-time highs over the course of the rest of the year. This is a good spot here to accumulate as momentum begins to pick up and the technicals turn bullish. I think Palantir will reach $250 by 2027. Palantir 4h Chart PLTR 4h chart (TrendSpider) If we start by zooming into the 4h chart, we can see that Palantir has established a strong base around $120. This has become a key accumulation zone, and it now acts as strong support below. In the last week, Palantir has exploded higher, buoyed by bullish earnings from Snowflake ( SNOW ) and an overall narrative shift for software. As we can see, the stock has broken above the key EMAs, and the 20 has also crossed above the 50 EMA, which is quite bullish. We are overbought on the RSI, and now the key thing to keep this bullish momentum is to hold the 200 EMA at $145. Palantir 1D Chart PLTR 1D Chart (TrendSpider) Zooming out to the 1D chart, we can appreciate that we have also broken above the key resistance, including the local highs made back in March, and that’s quite bullish. The MACD has flipped bullish, and while the RSI is stretched, it can still get quite a bit more overbought. If we can hold these levels now, then there’s not much in terms of resistance until we reach the $180, where we had significant volume before. Palantir 1W Chart PLTR 1W Chart (TrendSpider) Lastly, a look at the 1-week chart, which is still quite bullish. Although Palantir did break below the 20 and 50-week EMA for a bit, we’re now back above and building some solid momentum. The MACD just flipped bullish on the weekly, which has usually been a stron...

Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) have been at the center of the artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure boom in recent years, as they design and manufacture mission-critical chips that help run AI applications. Not surprisingly, shares of both companies have delivered stellar returns. Nvidia stock has shot up 492% over the past three years. Micron, on the other hand, has jumped by a stunning 1,420% over the same period. The good part is that both companies can continue to deliver healthy gains, primarily due to the massive investments in AI data centers . Nvidia has a huge revenue backlog of over $1 trillion for 2026 and 2027 for its Blackwell and Vera Rubin graphics processing units (GPUs). What's more, the semiconductor giant is making terrific progress in new areas such as server processors and physical AI, which should ensure its red-hot growth continues over the long run.

Ares Management Corp. was owed more than $547 million following the collapse of John Textor ’s Eagle Football Group, according to a filing by the administrators on Wednesday. How much the private credit manager recovers from the loans will depend on the sale of the group’s principal assets, including ownership of the French football club Olympique Lyonnais and an interest in Brazilian club SAF Botafogo. The joint administrators have already approached more than 50 parties with a view to selling the clubs, the filing by Cork Gully LLP shows. The sales process is ongoing and there is a significant amount of inbound interest, the firm added. Ares, which was owed $400 million of principal and the rest in interest, declined to comment. Textor did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Eagle Football was one of several sports companies backed by Ares as it expanded into the industry in the past few years amid soaring valuations. The asset manager has already recouped some of its exposure to Textor, taking $205 million when he sold Eagle Football’s interest in Crystal Palace, the Premier League team that won a European trophy last month. Ares and Textor fell out after a dispute arose last year concerning governance, funding requirements and the constitution of the company’s board. Eagle Football’s accounts were frozen in January, impacting its ability to operate and to pay its creditors. Ares’ claim is secured by 10 charges registered from 2022 through 2025, according to the filing. The Los Angeles-based overseer is trying to restructure Eagle Football and is open to injecting additional capital subject to creditor write-offs, Bloomberg has previously reported. The administrators are continuing to investigate Eagle’s inter company balances and related transactions. Due to the complexity of some of these arrangements, it is “not presently possible to determine the extent to which any recoveries may ultimately realized from these balances.” Textor has yet to respo...

Sam Altman speaks during CNBC's 'Power Lunch' on June 1, 2026. CNBC OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is meeting with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, including officials involved with the executive order on artificial intelligence that President Donald Trump signed this week. Altman will meet with members of the Trump administration at the White House, according to an OpenAI spokesperson. He will also sit down with Republican and Democratic members of Congress, including House Speaker Mike Johnson , R-La., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., their representatives confirmed to CNBC. Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order asking AI companies to voluntarily provide the government access to their models for up to 30 days before their release. The order is thin on specific details, but executives from leading AI companies, including Altman, voiced their support on social media. "The U.S. should lead on AI by continuing to develop the very best models, making sure they're safe, and getting cyber tools into the hands of trusted defenders," Altman wrote in a post on X .

Ever since SpaceX released its registration statement, revealing key financials, investors have gone back and forth about the company’s valuation, which media outlets expect to be in the range of $1.75 trillion to $2 trillion. Now, one Wall Street analyst is suggesting that the company’s initial public offering significantly overvalues the company. In a recent research note, Morningstar analyst Nicolas Owens said his team thinks the company is only worth about $780 billion, implying a 55% lower valuation from $1.75 trillion. Continue reading

Poland’s central bank views current interest rate levels as “high enough” to protect price stability amid a spike in global energy costs that’s gradually feeding domestic inflation, Governor Adam Glapinski said. Speaking a day after Glapinski’s 10-member Monetary Policy Council kept its benchmark on hold for a third-straight month at 3.75% , the governor said that there were no reasons to discuss rate changes, especially after the inflation rate unexpectedly declined in May. “The Council believes that the current interest rate level is appropriate,” Glapinski said at his monthly news conference on Wednesday. Rates are “sufficiently high to stabilize inflation under current conditions, and there is no reason to change them or even discuss changes.” The comments mark a retreat from a more hawkish tone set by Polish policymakers in past months. When discussing the May inflation data, Glapinski told reporters that “it’s hard to interpret this as anything other than a factor that reduces the likelihood of a rate hike.” Traders had priced in as much as 74 basis points in tightening since the start of the Iran war, according to derivatives known as forward-rate agreements , as higher energy costs stoked by conflict in the Middle East revive Polish inflation. On Wednesday, 3x6-month FRAs traded 38 basis points above interbank levels reflected in the 3-month Wibor rate. The MPC cut the benchmark by a total of 200 basis points in the 10 months to this March amid a sharp fall in price growth. Inflation stood at 2.1% before the Iran conflict began and at 3.1% in May — still within the policymakers’ target of 2.5%, plus/minus one percentage point.
