Interview: market concentration and whether consumers will pay for AI agents
An investor conversation covers positioning as market breadth narrows and discusses Meta Muse and whether consumers will pay for AI agents.
The AI trade is narrowing but a top-heavy market doesn't mean investors should turn bearish. I sat down with @_JoshSchafer to discuss how to position for worsening market breadth, the rise of consumer AI agents, and his top stock picks for the year ahead. Josh is one of the best in the business and the insights in this conversation will surprise you.
