Summary · why it matters

Growing fears of an AI-driven bubble are prompting financial advisors to look to European equity markets as a safer alternative. Analysts warn that a potential correction could slash the S&P 500 by an estimated 20%, with record market concentration and overvaluation echoing the dot-com era. Raphael Thuin, head of Tikehau Capital, told Bloomberg that the investment case for the 'buy Europe' trade is back, noting his firm has recently doubled down on its European exposure. Goldman Sachs, Barclays, and HSBC have also issued improved forecasts for the Stoxx Europe 600 Index, citing low valuations, decent returns, and a broader base of returns compared to the concentrated US market. Fund managers are particularly optimistic about banks, defense, and cyclical sectors in the coming year.
