Paul Tudor Jones, founder and chief investment officer of Tudor Investment Corporation, said in a May 7, 2026 interview that the AI-driven bull market has more room to run. He added that he has increased exposure through a basket of AI stocks while warning that valuation extremes could trigger a sharp correction.
Bull Market Outlook and Valuation Risk
Jones described the AI-driven bull market as roughly 50% to 60% complete, forecasting another one to two years of gains with potential upside around 40%. He compared the current phase to the 1995 internet commercialization and the frothy sentiment of the 1999 dot-com era, noting that productivity booms in similar technology cycles typically lasted four to five and a half years. This framing supports a cautiously optimistic view, suggesting the expansion remains in an early-to-mid cycle window.
Jones said he has increased holdings in AI-related assets using a basket approach to position for the cycle. He cautioned that if the market rises by that upside, the ratio of stock market capitalization to GDP could reach about 300% to 350%. He described that valuation level as likely to provoke a "suffocating" major correction, making the near-term outlook conditional on prices not outpacing fundamentals.
