Arthur Hayes: The AI boom will overbuild, collapse, and use Bitcoin as a bailout.
Arthur Hayes warns that the construction of artificial intelligence (AI) data centers will lead to overinvestment, ultimately ending in a crash and bailout. He expects that the multi-trillion-dollar boom will end in a crash and bailout. Hayes said that as data centers open, the cost of the AI boom is expected to reach $2.8 trillion by 2030 and rise to $10.3 trillion by 2032. Developers have already raised at least $1.3 trillion in debt. He believes this spending is "wasting trillions of dollars." Hayes also mentioned that the AI boom will make computing power cheap and abundant, even though many demand-side players, such as SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic, are not profitable. Hayes expects the AI boom's crash to arrive by the end of 2027 or in 2028. He pointed out that every major technology rollout in history has been accompanied by overbuilding, a crash, and a bailout. He believes that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will absorb the excess liquidity that follows.

Institutions: Strong AI spending means U.S. stocks are poised for another standout earnings season.
According to news from Bijie, institutions say that as companies invest heavily in AI infrastructure, U.S. companies are about to usher in another strong quarterly earnings season. Goldman Sachs expects that, driven by companies at the core of the AI infrastructure boom, earnings for S&P 500 constituent companies in the September quarter are expected to grow 27% year over year. Ben Snider, Goldman Sachs' chief U.S. equity strategist, said: "Neither recent macroeconomic data nor signals related to the AI investment boom show that investment is slowing." Manish Kabra, chief U.S. equity strategist at Societe Generale, said this will be the third consecutive quarter of earnings growth exceeding 25%, an unprecedented streak except during the post-financial crisis recovery period. Revenue is expected to grow 12%. Steve Chiavarone, chief investment officer of equities at Federated Hermes, said that thanks to capital expenditures related to AI infrastructure construction, investors are witnessing "the best earnings and margin growth in our lifetime." He added: "The concerns people have built up... will ultimately be shattered by strong earnings performance."
