Should Investors Befriend the AI Bubble? Lessons From the Dot-Com Era

Today’s bull market just keeps building with stock indexes reaching record highs, AI buildout booming, and blockbuster IPOs smashing records.  It’s giving the ‘90s… and we know how that ended. On this episode of The Important Part: Investing with Liz Thomas, Dan Greenhaus, Chief Strategist at Solus Alternative Asset Management, takes us back in time to understand the years of build up before the Dot-Com crash and what we can learn from that history today.  Dan also shares his perspective on the unbridled enthusiasm in the market, how the explosion of AI is similar to and different from the Dot-Com era, and the potential opportunities lost when investors assume a burst is coming.  No one will ring a bell at the top, so how do you befriend the bubble?
