Howard Marks of Oaktree Capital cautions that many AI-related stocks are more speculative than investors realize, as their valuations rely on uncertain future profits rather than predictable cash flows. He highlights that while large tech companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, and Microsoft have strong cash flows supporting their AI investments, smaller AI startups are akin to lottery tickets with high risk. Marks compares the current market to the dot-com bubble, noting elevated valuation metrics and market volatility. He advises investors to recognize the speculative nature of many AI stocks and size their investments accordingly, rather than treating them like stable, predictable assets.
