    Show Me the Money

    Show Me the Money: Is Wall Street Losing Patience with AI CapEx? AI demand is booming, but spending by the largest technology companies is growing faster than their profits and cash flow. In this episode, we examine (1) the market's growing concerns over the sustainability of AI investment and its effect on beneficiaries of that spending, like semiconductors, (2) why access to capital is an emerging AI bottleneck, and (3) Google's search monetization challenges. We also discuss why overlooked sectors like energy, health care, and financials may offer compelling opportunities.

    The AI Capital Bottleneck

    AI spending commitments are reaching unprecedented levels—and investors are beginning to ask whether revenue and capital markets can keep pace. In this week’s market update, we discuss the recent pullback in AI-related stocks, Meta’s increased spending plans, the nearly $5.8 trillion in future AI investment commitments from major technology firms, and why capital availability may become the next major constraint on the AI buildout. We also cover: -Why U.S. debt and equity markets are becoming increasingly crowded -Rising credit-default-swap costs for major AI players -The importance of OpenAI and Anthropic’s rapidly growing revenue- Why the market may favor companies that fund AI investment through their own cash flows While demand for AI services remains strong, the key question is whether revenue can scale quickly enough to justify the enormous investment being made today.

    The Rise in Long term Rates

    Long-term interest rates are climbing, with the 30-year Treasury yield reaching its highest level in nearly two decades. What’s driving the move, and what could higher rates mean for investors? In this week’s market update, we break down the forces pushing long-term yields higher, including persistent federal deficits, sticky inflation, strong nominal growth, increased AI investment, and growing competition for capital from corporate bonds. We also discuss the Treasury’s latest efforts to ease pressure on long-term rates and why those measures may only provide temporary relief. Finally, we look at the potential implications for markets—from higher refinancing costs and pressure on equity valuations to the growing appeal of fixed income for income-focused investors.

    America at 250: The Greatest Growth Story Ever Told

    Celebrate America's 250th birthday with a look at one of the greatest economic growth stories in history.In this week's market update, we examine how the U.S. economy has transformed over the past 250 years—from a small agricultural nation into the world's largest economy and home to the deepest capital markets. We discuss the long-term drivers of America's success, including innovation, productivity, entrepreneurship, and the companies that continue to shape the global economy. In this video, we cover: • How the U.S. economy has grown from a few hundred million dollars in output to nearly $31 trillion. • The remarkable rise in real income and living standards since 1790. • How technological innovation has continually reinvented the American economy. • Why the U.S. represents just 4% of the world's population but produces roughly 26% of global GDP. • Why U.S. companies account for more than half of global stock market value. • Warren Buffett's famous advice to "never bet against America" and what history tells us about long-term investing. While markets inevitably experience periods of volatility, history reminds us that long-term investors have been rewarded by staying invested in America's continued growth and innovation. If you have questions about your portfolio or would like to discuss your long-term investment strategy, we'd be happy to help. Happy Fourth of July from everyone at Fort Sheridan Advisors!
