Billionaire investor Ray Dalio warned on Wednesday that the artificial intelligence (AI) market is on the verge of a bubble bursting, citing rising interest rates and the need for wealth conversion as pressures on markets. Speaking at the Forbes Global CEO Conference in Singapore, Dalio, the founder of Bridgewater, noted that excessive debt is being raised to finance AI investments, with higher interest rates potentially leading to the bubble bursting.
He emphasized that AI is a classic bubble, urging caution as technology companies pour billions into AI while concentrating gains in a few tech stocks. Despite these concerns, equity valuations have continued to rise, pushing major indexes to all-time highs this week. However, Dalio cautioned that wealth taxes, efforts to convert unrealized gains into cash, and other factors could also trigger a market decline, often exacerbated by the need to sell assets to convert wealth into cash.
