Market gains are currently driven by AI-related capital investments, which are offsetting weakening consumer fundamentals such as declining real personal income, low savings rates, and slowing consumer spending growth. However, valuations remain near historical highs, meaning continued positive surprises are needed to sustain the bull market. The AI investment cycle is expected to peak around 2027-2028, posing risks if consumer strength does not improve by then. This outlook highlights the importance of monitoring both technological investment trends and consumer economic health going forward.
