… as long as we don’t get worried about that 4T crypto market…

the reason I don't really stress about valuations any more is the m2 US money supply has grown 20% in the last 5 years, cumulative inflation over last 5 years is ~24%, assets have no ceiling because fiat has no floor. -- you hear 4t now but thats 3t from 5 years ago.

Crypto is very difficult to value in terms of cash flows, whether BTC should be $120K or not is a big question mark. Regular companies do have standard valuation techniques that are currently silly.

By ‘standard valuation techniques’ you mean: regular companies produce value and wealth and represent what a society can create whereas crypto is like ‘a shiny object sitting there with people trying to gauge how much someone is willing to pay in the future on the premise it will be worth more’ ? :-D

Bank of England flags risk of 'sudden correction' in tech stocks inflated by AI
> asking where today’s AI bubble – because that’s what it clearly is – fits in a 1990s timeline
Yet evidence is:
- CAPE is high
- NVIDIA has a very large market cap
- enormous capital investment in AI and relatively few companies
I assume also a chorus of “AI actually doesn’t make you more productive!” And “AI capex and opex vastly outweighs realized profits!”
Seems a little less than “clearly”.
All of these are very much RISK factors, yet you need to assume the market is being irrational and assume that AI is NOT going to have the impact the market thinks it will. Personally for me I don’t understand: pretty clear trend in capabilities without a clear and insurmountable roadblock, so I totally get the “I think it’s a bubble” argument, it’s just that I think people underestimate what’s to come

Or, maybe the economics can't be made to pencil out, and AI is abandoned (again).

Almost certainly all of it will end up getting torched.
