Michael Burry's Market History
Michael Burry achieved great success by correctly predicting the collapse of the U.S. housing market in the early 2000s. This story was later adapted into the film The Big Short.

Bullish Scenario for the Artificial Intelligence Sector
Giant companies like Amazon and Alphabet continue to make multi-billion-dollar investments to develop artificial intelligence infrastructure.
It is stated that companies are making these investments in line with current demand and that artificial intelligence technology is still in its early stages.
Risks for Artificial Intelligence Stocks
Despite high demand in the artificial intelligence space, concerns are being raised that future revenues may fall short of market expectations.
Additionally, circular financing methods and massive resource constraints such as water and energy required by large-scale projects pose risks.
Amazon's Resilient Position
While both optimistic and cautious scenarios are discussed in the market, Amazon stands out with both its e-commerce and cloud computing units.
While the Amazon Web Services unit benefits from artificial intelligence, the growth of its core business lines outside of artificial intelligence puts the company in an advantageous position.
