CEPR's Dean Baker estimates AI stock valuation risk and post-bubble response
What happened
Hacker News on November 3 reported on CEPR's Dean Baker and his analysis of AI-related stock valuation risk in the 21st issue of his AI Bubble Monitor. Baker estimates that if the stock market fell back to its historical average price-to-earnings ratio, market value losses would be about $40 trillion. If stock wealth shrank by $30 trillion to $40 trillion, annual consumption could fall by $900 billion to $1.2 trillion. For the aftermath, he argues for supporting the economy through public spending and opposes bailouts for AI companies and their financiers. The loss and consumption figures are conditional estimates, not outcomes that have happened.
