AI Boom Looks Healthier Than Dot-Com Era, Investor Wick Says
  • The AI boom looks healthier than the dot-com bubble, with enterprise spending remaining strong, according to Seligman Investments’ Paul Wick.
  • Limited IPO speculation distinguishes the current market from 2000, reducing evidence of comparable speculative excess.
  • Open-source adoption and customer-built systems could pressure token prices, threatening margins at providers such as OpenAI and Anthropic.
  • Nvidia’s investments in customers could expand demand, but raise questions about whether spending reflects independent customer demand or supplier financing.
  • Strong AI demand does not guarantee adequate data-center investment returns or sustainable premium pricing for model developers.
