I am a 22 y/o that’s been investing and following markets for about 4 years now.
I feel like much of the world is hyper fixated on AI, tech, and data/information that moves faster everyday… Companies moving +/- 10% on a daily basis, absurd valuations, and so much capex centered around one idea. I know the media say we are in unprecedented times but as someone who wasn’t aware of the times before AI and this wave of new ideas can someone enlighten me a bit:
Has there ever been a period like this before? Perhaps in a different way (“history doesn’t repeat but it rhymes” type of thing)…
What was the investment world like before so much change… specifically the 2000s and 2010s
Just want to get a pulse on if this is how markets have always been and I’m just new or if there truly has been an inflection point.
