⚖️ KEY THEMES TO WATCH THIS WEEK ⚖️ Good morning!! 🍳☕ 👉 These are the four points I think we need to keep an eye on this week: 1️⃣ Investor exuberance around AI is powering the recent rally The surge in equities has been heavily concentrated in technology and AI-adjacent names. Some analysts warn that this may be overstretching fundamentals, drawing parallels to past speculative manias. 2️⃣ Volatility may return in October After a strong September, institutional strategists, including Goldman Sachs, caution that markets might enter a more turbulent phase in the near term. 3️⃣ U.S. government shutdown clouds data flow & policy clarity The ongoing shutdown is delaying key economic releases, complicating the Federal Reserve’s decision-making. History suggests markets tend to “price past” shutdowns quickly, but the longer it persists, the greater the tail risk. 4️⃣ Valuation dispersion widens, dispersion = opportunity & risk While large-cap, AI-driven names are outperforming, many sectors have lagged. This dichotomy raises both selective opportunity and risk, depending on sector rotation or sentiment shifts. In short: we are in a market regime fueled by technological optimism and momentum. But that doesn’t remove the necessity for discipline, risk control, and selective positioning. The coming weeks should reveal whether this is a durable upswing or a consolidation in disguise. Do you think there’s anything else we should keep an eye on? 👀 Let me know in the comments 💬 Have a great day! ☀️😊 @Cris_Investor $PLTR (Palantir Technologies Inc.) $ACHR (Archer Aviation Inc) $BTC $NVDA (NVIDIA Corporation) $TSLA (Tesla Motors, Inc.)
