Strategist Warns AI Trade May End, Predicting Severe Market Crash
What happened
Joachim Klement, head of market strategy at Panmure Liberum, issued a warning that the artificial-intelligence trade may soon end, potentially triggering a severe market crash. Klement stated his core conviction is that the AI bubble will burst in 2027 or 2028.
Why it matters
The warning is based on the observation that hyperscalers have largely depleted free cash flows while the cost of debt is rising quickly and becoming prohibitive for these firms. Klement’s 2027 target for the S&P 500 is 5,000 points, which implies a 36 per cent downside from current levels.
