Viewpoint: AI Stock Accounts for Nearly Half of the S&P 500 Market Cap, Reaching a Record High, $1.4 Trillion Industry Debt Could Be a Hidden Risk
2026-05-11 05:50

BlockBeats News, May 11th, data shows that from May 2024 to June 2026, the S&P 500 Index has surged by 142%. However, if we exclude AI stocks, this number would plummet to 16%. AI stocks currently account for 45% of the total market value of the S&P 500 Index, setting a new record for a single thematic sector within the index.

Capital Economics predicts that the S&P 500 Index will reach 7250 by the end of the year. However, achieving this target would imply the highest index concentration in history.

Furthermore, the $1.4 trillion debt related to AI warrants caution, encompassing various forms ranging from corporate bonds issued by mega-cap companies to leverage positions in AI-related stocks. If future market credit conditions tighten or if the earnings growth of any major AI firm disappoints, the $1.4 trillion AI-related debt could swiftly evaporate. (Cryptobriefing)
