Episode notes
AI Driving S&P Growth Surge
- AI investments could boost S&P 500 earnings growth to 9-11% per year for the next few years.
- This could drive the S&P 500 towards 10,000 by 2030, exceeding its long-term average growth.
Healthcare's Consistent Growth Potential
- Healthcare has shown steady revenue growth for over 25 years, even during crises like COVID.
- AI could improve margins and productivity in healthcare sectors, making it an attractive investment.
Tariffs Impact Varies by Sector
- Tariffs and cost pressures may impact smaller companies more than large caps like tech and financials.
- Large cap resilience is partly due to business models less sensitive to tariffs and supply disruptions.
