Abstract
We have been watching the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 melt-up since the minor correction ending in October 2023. While the narrative around a Fed “pivot” on rates sparked the turnaround, it is obvious since we started 2024 that the indexes are rising purely on momentum in a handful of stocks which are leading development of artificial intelligence (AI). Notably this is Nvidia, a semiconductor foundry, along with Meta and Microsoft.
