THE GREAT AI SCAM IS COLLAPSING. Billions in shareholder wealth are being ANNIHILATED as the hollow promise of artificial intelligence triggers a financial BLOODBATH across global markets. This isn’t a correction—it’s a full-blown RECKONING for an industry built on hype.
The so-called “AI revolution” is now exposed as a TRILLION-DOLLAR PONZI SCHEME, with tech titans Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta leading the charge off a cliff. Their projected $600-billion spending spree isn’t visionary—it’s a DESPERATE GAMBLE that has terrified investors into a historic rout. The S&P 500 has been PUNCHED into negative territory for the year, while a stunning $1 TRILLION has been VAPORIZED from software stocks in a catastrophe traders are calling “SOFTWARE-MAGEDDON.”
The contagion is GLOBAL and RELENTLESS. Cryptocurrencies, the poster child for speculative mania, have been CRUSHED, losing a staggering $2 TRILLION in value since October. Even traditional safe havens like precious metals have FAILED, leaving investors with NOWHERE TO HIDE. Expert warnings are now a chorus of panic. “It’s just massively risk off,” declared one analyst, revealing a market gripped by PURE TERROR.
This is the sound of the bubble BURSTING. The “massive rotation” out of tech and into “boring” stocks is a damning indictment. The world is finally waking up to the brutal truth: the AI emperor has no clothes, and the economic fallout is just beginning. With layoffs surging to a 17-year high, the facade of a resilient economy is cracking under the weight of this technological fantasy.
THE FALLACY UNRAVELS
The catastrophic selloff proves one terrifying reality: the entire financial system was propped up on a LIE. The AI gold rush was a mirage, and now ordinary investors, retirees, and fund managers are left holding the bag as the dream turns to dust. The promised utopia of AI-driven profits has been replaced by a landscape of ruin and shattered portfolios.
