Caroline Hyde discusses the AI-driven momentum in chip stocks, noting explosive growth in earnings and revenues with still-low multiples (Micron at 9x forward earnings). She highlights supply chain issues for high-bandwidth memory chips lasting until 2027, but sees signs of frothiness like leveraged single-stock ETFs and retail margin usage in South Korea.

Michael Maseca explains Goldman Sachs' 8000 S&P 500 target is driven by 24% earnings growth this year and 13% next year, all from AI and AI CapEx. Earnings have been growing faster than the market, so they will keep rising. This is becoming the norm with Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley also at 8000.

Ethan Devitt sees a melt-up with frenzy and exuberance, primed for a correction. He follows the money from hyperscalers into semiconductors, data centers, energy, and ultimately banks. He is concerned about retail leverage, FOMO, and lack of interest in bonds, even among retirees. He sees SpaceX's fast-track index inclusion as a sign of froth.

Nasdaq President Nelson Griggs defends rule changes allowing fast entry for mega IPOs like SpaceX into the Nasdaq 100, arguing it better represents the index. He supports dual-class shares for long-term thinking. He dismisses governance and profitability concerns, saying investors have a choice and retail investors are smart.

Jake Silverman explains that memory chip makers like Micron trade at low multiples historically due to cyclicality. The current rally is driven by structural undersupply in high-bandwidth memory for AI, expected to last 12-24 months. Pricing will decelerate but remain elevated due to underinvestment in capacity.

Nimrit Kang sees a major infrastructure CapEx boom ($1 trillion) driving 66% earnings growth for AI and trickle-down effects. He is cautious on SpaceX due to governance and profitability issues, but notes the narrative and retail FOMO are driving the market. He sees the market as momentum-driven where fundamentals matter less.
