Global markets plunge, bankers warn of correction"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Global stock markets saw a sharp decline in early November as fears grew among investors that the artificial intelligence (AI) boom had turned into a speculative bubble. As The Guardian reported, indexes in the US, Asia and Europe plunged after the heads of the world's biggest banks warned of an imminent market correction.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the US, according to <strong>Bloomberg<\/strong> technology-oriented <strong>Nasdaq Composite<\/strong> fell two percent on Tuesday - the biggest one-day drop in almost a month. Index <strong>S&amp;P 500<\/strong> lost more than one percent, mainly due to the weakening of technology companies. The company's shares fell significantly <strong>Palantir Technologies<\/strong>, which, paradoxically, fell by almost eight percent after the previous increase in the sales outlook. As stated by <strong>The Guardian<\/strong>, all titles from the so-called \u201e<strong>Big Seven AI<\/strong>\u201c - thus <strong>Nvidia<\/strong>, <strong>Amazon<\/strong>, <strong>Apple<\/strong>, <strong>Microsoft<\/strong>, <strong>Tesla<\/strong>, <strong>Alphabet<\/strong> (Google) and <strong>Meta Platforms<\/strong> (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp) - saw a noticeable drop in one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Tensions in the markets were boosted by a well-known investor <strong>Michael Burry<\/strong>, who became famous for predicting the financial crisis in the year two thousand and eight. As he recalled. <strong>Reuters<\/strong>, Burry bet against the stock <strong>Nvidia<\/strong> a <strong>Palantiru<\/strong>, triggering another wave of sell-offs. CEO <strong>Palantiru Alex Karp<\/strong> responded to his move with harsh criticism, saying that short-sellers were trying to <em>\u201eto question the AI revolution itself\u201c<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From Wall Street to Tokyo<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Asian markets <strong>Reuters<\/strong> on Wednesday, headed in the same direction as the US. Equity indices in <strong>Japan<\/strong> a <strong>South Korea<\/strong> recorded their biggest declines in seven months, losing over five percent from the previous day's record. Also in <strong>Europe<\/strong>, as he stated <strong>Financial Times<\/strong>, the mood worsened: the London <strong>FTSE 100<\/strong>, Parisian <strong>CAC 40<\/strong> and German <strong>DAX<\/strong> weakened slightly in morning trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The chiefs also joined the voices of warning <strong>Morgan Stanley<\/strong> a <strong>Goldman Sachs<\/strong>, who pointed out that the current valuation of stocks - especially technology stocks - is not sustainable in the long term. As he wrote <strong>New York Post<\/strong>, their concerns follow on from the October warning <strong>Jamie Dimon<\/strong> z <strong>JPMorgan Chase<\/strong>, who warned that a significant drop could come in the next six months to two years.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201eWe see a clear retreat from risky assets in the last twenty-four hours. Fears of overheated valuations of technology companies are worsening investor sentiment,\u201c said analyst <strong>Jim Reid<\/strong> z <strong>Deutsche Bank<\/strong>, whom he quoted <strong>The Guardian<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The fragile foundations of the AI boom<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The growth of AI-related stocks has been staggering over the past two years. But according to <strong>Reuters<\/strong> most of the investment is concentrated in a handful of giants, especially <strong>Nvidia<\/strong> a <strong>OpenAI<\/strong>. Although these companies have become a symbol of technological progress, the return on investment has so far fallen far short of expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some economists compare the current situation to the dot-com bubble at the turn of the millennium - when the rapid rise of technology stocks ended in a sudden crash. As pointed out by <strong>World Economic Forum<\/strong> and quotes <strong>Reuters<\/strong>, the global economy is threatened by three \u201ebubbles\u201c: in artificial intelligence, cryptocurrencies and sovereign debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Bitcoin under pressure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Cryptocurrencies have also lost money. <strong>Bitcoin<\/strong> briefly fell below the threshold for the first time since June <strong>a hundred thousand dollars<\/strong> (about two and a half million crowns). In October, it reached an all-time high of over <strong>one hundred and twenty-six thousand dollars<\/strong>. As he states <strong>CoinMarketCap<\/strong>, 's monthly decline of three full seven-tenths of a percent represented the cryptocurrency's worst performance in a decade.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <strong>Bloomberg<\/strong> this development suggests that investors are starting to pull out of riskier assets - not just technology stocks, but also cryptocurrencies. Many prefer cash or government bonds, which offer more stable returns at higher interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cautious optimism or the beginning of the fall?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some analysts believe that the current decline is a natural correction after months of rapid growth. Others, however, believe <strong>Financial Times<\/strong> warn that this is a signal of a deeper problem: exaggerated expectations about AI may not be sustainable in the long term, and if companies fail to meet optimistic forecasts, the slump could deepen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lesson for European and Czech investors is clear - diversify, consider risk and do not panic. Although artificial intelligence remains the key trend of the decade, recent developments are a reminder that even the biggest technological revolution can lose its breath if it is overtaken by speculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>gnews.cz - GH<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global stock markets saw a sharp decline in early November as fears intensified among investors that the boom in artificial intelligence (AI) had grown into a...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":36735,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2968,4,3,2973],"tags":[5143,325,4253,7112,7125,7124,3820,7123,17,614,41,7126],"class_list":["post-36734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-domaci","category-ekonomika","category-neprehlednete","category-zahranicni","tag-alex-karp","tag-bitcoin","tag-deutsche-bank","tag-globalni-trhy-2","tag-jamie-dimon","tag-michael-burry","tag-nvidia","tag-palantir-technologies","tag-top","tag-umela-inteligence","tag-world","tag-world-economic-forum"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36734"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36734\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36736,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36734\/revisions\/36736"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36735"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnews.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
