INSIGHT

AI Trade Impact

David Rosenberg missed the impact of the AI trade, similar to how many underestimated the internet boom in 1995.
The market rally wasn't solely earnings-driven; multiple expansion played a significant role, fueled by AI enthusiasm.

INSIGHT

Extended Time Horizons

Investors have extended time horizons due to AI's potential impact on productivity and earnings.
Current market valuations imply a 20% annual earnings growth over the next five years, a statistically rare event.

INSIGHT

Zero Equity Risk Premium

The near-zero equity risk premium indicates investors view equities as riskless, like treasury bills.
This implies extreme confidence, perhaps overconfidence, in the market's future performance.
