However, the report highlighted that the discussions aren’t exclusive, and there are no assurances they’ll lead to a deal.&nbsp;Several AI companies are partnering with Wall Street firms and entering into joint ventures to broaden and cultivate their future clientele.&nbsp;Earlier this week, OpenAI raised more than $4 billion from TPG, Brookfield Asset Management, Advent International, and Bain Capital for a firm aimed at helping businesses use its AI software.&nbsp;Shortly after that, Anthropic announced it was pairing up with Blackstone, Hellman &amp; Friedman, and Goldman Sachs Group to form a similar company.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">The Private Equity And AI Relationship&nbsp;</h2>Several top private equity players like Blackstone and KKR have increased investments in data center operators, energy management companies, and memory stocks in a bid to increase their clout in the booming AI space.&nbsp;For instance, KKR in 2025 acquired a stake in energy firm AEP Transmission and invested in ST Telemedia Global Data Centers to secure the energy-heavy infrastructure needed for AI scaling.“A couple of years ago, private equity firms were waiting to see what was happening with AI and its impact, encouraging their portfolio companies to do trials around adoption,” Tanveer Kapadia, partner at Boston Consulting Group, told Bloomberg. “Now they are getting more actively involved.”&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">GOOGL Retail View&nbsp;</h2>Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was ‘extremely bullish,’ and message volumes were ‘high.’&nbsp;The stock has gained 23.4% year-to-date.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

"Customers who bet on going all in with a big tech model risk missing out on innovations that come from elsewhere," he said. "In a space moving this quickly, that flexibility is critical."<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SOUN/">SOUN’s stock</a> gained as much as 2.4% in pre-market trade. Retail sentiment around the company on Stocktwits trended in ‘extremely bullish’ territory over the past day, accompanied by ‘extremely high’ levels of chatter.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2026_05_05_085025_png_80bb8515d0.webp" alt="Screenshot 2026-05-05 085025.png" width="1267" height="140"><figcaption>SOUN retail sentiment and message volume on May 5 as of 8:50 a.m. ET | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure><h2 class="st-heading-2">OASYS Launch Targets Big Tech AI Lock-In Risk</h2>He explained that OASYS is built to be model-agnostic, meaning it can draw on whichever underlying AI model performs best for a given task, from any provider, and adapt as the landscape shifts. Mohajer stated that no one can predict which model wins over the next two years, and enterprises shouldn't be forced to bet on it today.The OASYS launch comes ahead of the company’s earnings later this week, with Wall Street expecting revenue of about $43 million and adjusted loss of $0.04 per share.<h2 class="st-heading-2">SoundHound CEO Pushes Partnership Over Plug-and-Play Model</h2>Mohajer also drew a distinction around how SoundHound goes to market as compared to the big tech companies. "We're not a plug-and-play vendor," he said. "We act as a strategic partner, working closely with enterprises to integrate AI into their real-world operations, continuously optimize performance, and deliver measurable outcomes over time."The company is expanding into sectors including healthcare, insurance, telecommunications, and retail. According to Mohajer, demand for AI agents is broad-based rather than concentrated in a single industry. “Every business is looking for ways to automate interactions, improve efficiency, and deliver better customer experiences,” he said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">LivePerson Deal Could Unlock Enterprise Reach</h2>SoundHound expects its reach to expand further with the planned acquisition of LivePerson, once the deal closes. Mohajer said the combined footprint would give the company exposure to enterprise customers across more than 30 countries. This includes relationships with 12 of the top 15 global banks, four of the top five airlines, four of the top five automakers, and 10 leading telecommunications providers.Mohajer stated that the new OASYS platform is designed to operate across these varied environments, supporting deployments at scale while adapting to industry-specific requirements.SOUN’s stock has fallen over 7% this year and gained around 2% in the last 12 months.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/cryptocurrency/blsh-stock-tumbles-after-4-2-billion-all-stock-bet-on-equiniti/cZQwDnUReBA">Why Bullish's $4.2B Deal Is Sending BLSH Stock Lower Despite A Crypto Rally?</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com

That’s up to a 450-basis-point reduction in interest costs, meaning Hut 8 now pays less to borrow against its Bitcoin.&nbsp;After moving from Coinbase to FalconX, Hut 8 also ends up with around 3,300 BTC free and clear, worth about $260 million.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/HUT/">HUT’s stock</a> was trading flat in pre-market trade after the broader market trended lower following Iran’s warning to the U.S. Navy to stay out of the region after President Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/cryptocurrency/crcl-coin-mstr-stocks-gain-amid-bitcoin-rally-to-over-80000/cZQMFFyRe7C">said</a> Washington would help free stranded ships.

At this point, stopping progress in AI would be equivalent to halting the U.S. economy,” the Former White House Crypto and AI Czar said in a <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/DavidSacks/status/2051004599633318390">post</a> on X on Sunday.Last week, the Bureau of Economic Analysis released data that showed that the U.S. economy grew at a 2% annualized pace in the first quarter of 2026, rebounding from 0.5% in the prior quarter, boosted primarily by a large AI-driven increase in business investment.<h2 class="st-heading-2">AI’s Impact On US GDP</h2>Sacks said in his post on X that AI-related capex has already been a significant tailwind to GDP, and is likely to be an even bigger contributor than anticipated.“I’ve been saying for awhile that AI capex will be a 2% tailwind to GDP growth this year. In fact, according to a new report from Morgan Stanley, the numbers are even stronger — more like 2.5% this year and over 3% next year,” he said, resharing a post from German editor and market analyst Holger Zschaepitz.Earlier on Sunday, Morgan Stanley significantly increased its capital expenditure forecast for major hyperscalers, projecting a combined capital expenditure of $805 billion from Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOG), Meta Platforms (META), Microsoft (MSFT) and Oracle (ORCL) for 2026. This is nearly double the levels anticipated for 2025 and about three times what was spent in 2024. For 2027, the analyst has lifted its forecast to $1.1 trillion.Zschaepitz put that into perspective in his <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/Schuldensuehner/status/2050977149574692960">post</a>, noting that the projected 2026 spending by these five companies alone could rival the total capex of all non-tech firms in the S&amp;P 500 just a year earlier.“In Q1, AI was already 75% of GDP growth. That trend is likely to continue. Technology leadership has always been America’s great strength, and it’s driving the economy forward,” Sacks said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Is AI’s Influence Understated?</h2>Sacks also said in his post that despite the significant numbers reported, the figures may still understate AI’s true economic impact.Firstly, the capex figures were only for the top five hyperscalers and “doesn’t include all the startups and other companies investing in AI,” he said.Secondly, Sacks argued that capex only accounts for building the infrastructure, but not the other productivity gains. “Capex is the investment to create the token factories; it doesn’t count the economic activity resulting from what happens inside the token factories. Those tokens are now being used to generate code (bespoke software) that will increase productivity throughout the economy. The ROI on capex is likely to dwarf the capex itself, which is why investment continues to grow,” he said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">AI ETFs Soar Past S&amp;P 500</h2>Even as investors remain skeptical of AI-driven capex spending and its sustainability, AI-focused exchange-traded funds have far outperformed broader benchmark indexes this year.The <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/aiq">Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF</a> (AIQ), which invests in both hardware- and software-linked AI plays, has gained more than 49% in the past year, and the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/chat">Roundhill Generative AI &amp; Technology ETF</a> (CHAT), another fund that tracks AI companies, has rallied 110% over the same period.

<ul class="summary-bullets"><li>The Kobeissi Letter said that a record 15.4% of investment-grade debt is also tied to AI, making it the largest sector in the U.S. credit market.&nbsp;</li><li>Marko Kolanovic, former chief global market strategist at JPMorgan Chase, said in a post on X that the thematic concentration is a massive market risk.&nbsp;</li><li>The Roundhill Generative AI &amp; Technology ETF has surged 119% over the last year, while the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF, which tracks the S&amp;P 500 index, has risen 29.6% over the same period.&nbsp;</li></ul>When OpenAI's now-ubiquitous bot ChatGPT launched four years ago and sparked early hype around artificial intelligence, AI-linked stocks accounted for only about a quarter of the S&amp;P 500.&nbsp;Now, that share has nearly doubled, unnerving many on Wall Street even as several exchange-traded funds riding the hot theme have outperformed the benchmark indexes.<h2 class="st-heading-2">The 'Massive' AI Risk&nbsp;</h2>According to research from Goldman Sachs, AI-linked stocks now account for nearly 45% of the S&amp;P 500, up from about 25% in 2022 when OpenAI rolled out ChatGPT for the public.Currently, the top holdings in the S&amp;P 500 by weight are all considered AI plays to varying degrees, with most belonging to the "Magnificent Seven" group.<div><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td>Number</td><td>Company</td><td>Symbol</td><td>Weight</td></tr><tr><td>1</td><td>NVIDIA Corp.</td><td>NVDA</td><td>7.52%</td></tr><tr><td>2</td><td>Apple Inc.</td><td>AAPL</td><td>6.22%</td></tr><tr><td>3</td><td>Microsoft Corp.</td><td>MSFT</td><td>4.78%</td></tr><tr><td>4</td><td>Amazon.com Inc.</td><td>AMZN</td><td>4.25%</td></tr><tr><td>5</td><td>Alphabet Inc.</td><td>GOOGL</td><td>3.29%</td></tr><tr><td>6</td><td>Broadcom Inc.</td><td>AVGO</td><td>3.08%</td></tr><tr><td>7</td><td>Alphabet Inc.</td><td>GOOG</td><td>3.06%</td></tr><tr><td>8</td><td>Meta Platforms Inc.</td><td>META</td><td>2.59%</td></tr><tr><td>9</td><td>Tesla Inc.</td><td>TSLA</td><td>2.17%</td></tr><tr><td>10</td><td>Walmart Inc.</td><td>WMT</td><td>1.63%</td></tr></tbody></table></figure></div>In March 2026 alone, S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices added three companies directly tied to the AI infrastructure boom to the S&amp;P 500: Vertiv Holdings Co. (VRT), which specializes in power and cooling systems for data centers and AI servers; Lumentum Holdings Inc. (LITE), which produces advanced optical components and lasers for high-speed AI data center networking; and Coherent Corp. (COHR), which focuses on photonics and silicon photonics for AI computing clusters.The Kobeissi Letter, which provides industry-leading market commentary, noted in a <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/KobeissiLetter/status/2047492227035742429">post</a> on X that the record concentration comes even as investment-grade debt linked to AI is surging to record levels and called it a “shocking" statistic. "Never before has a single theme dominated both U.S. equity and credit markets to this magnitude," The Kobeissi Letter said.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2026_04_24_at_12_20_21_PM_png_1d187b0e58.webp" alt="Screenshot 2026-04-24 at 12.20.21 PM.png">A record 15.4% of investment-grade debt is now tied to AI, making it the largest sector in the U.S. credit market, according to the commentator. Meanwhile, AI-linked debt has nearly doubled since 2020 to an all-time high of $1.4 trillion, it added.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">Big Tech AI Capex Is Ballooning</h2>These numbers come amid record capital expenditure spending from hyperscalers in 2026, expected to reach nearly $700 billion. &nbsp;"So let's say it turns out AI can't be profitably monetized near term to justify ongoing spend, or there is a capex cut due to cyclical downturn &nbsp;(advertising, consumer, energy). This 45% thematic concentration represents a massive market risk," said Marko Kolanovic, former chief global market strategist at JPMorgan Chase, in a <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/markoinny/status/2047494636831228226">post</a> on X.&nbsp;<h2 class="st-heading-2">AI ETFs Are Leaving S&amp;P 500 In The Dust</h2>The <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/AIQ">Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF</a> (AIQ), which invests in both hardware- and software-linked AI plays, has gained more than 47% over the past year, and the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/chat">Roundhill Generative AI &amp; Technology ETF</a> (CHAT), another fund that tracks AI companies, surged 119% over the same period. Meanwhile, the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/spy">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF</a> (SPY), which tracks the S&amp;P 500 index, has risen 29.6% over the same period.It should be noted, however, that AIQ's top two holdings are South Korean tech giants SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics, while CHAT's are Nvidia and Alphabet. Stocktwits sentiment for AIQ was last in the 'neutral' zone, while it was 'bullish' for CHAT.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Is There An AI Bubble Or Not?</h2>Many Wall Street analysts and investors have increasingly warned about a potential AI bubble. "The Big Short" investor Michael Burry has repeatedly cautioned that the current boom <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/michael-burry-ai-spending-big-tech-cashflow-warnings/cZRqQuiR4UJ">mirrors the dot-com era</a>, driven by unsustainable data center spending, rising leverage, and accounting risks that could mask underlying financial strain.&nbsp;Meanwhile, Citrini Research outlined a <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/michael-burry-cites-interesting-thought-experiment-from-citrini-research-on-ai-says-and-you-think-im-bearish/cZRtvm2R4yk">more structural risk</a>, arguing that while AI may boost corporate margins in the near term, widespread job displacement and weakening consumer demand could ultimately trigger a negative economic feedback loop, leading to a broader market downturn.Martin Varsavsky, Google-backed serial entrepreneur, noted late Thursday that a massive repricing was around the corner. "This is what bubbles look like when narrative outruns cash flow. AI will transform everything, but when one theme dominates both equity and credit markets, the setup for violent repricing is obvious," he said in a <a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/martinvars/status/2047512397993136203">post</a>.&nbsp;Earlier this year, Goldman Sachs reportedly launched an S&amp;P ex-AI index that allows investors to access the S&amp;P 500 benchmark index without AI-related exposure.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
