The global economy is currently shaped by two powerful waves creating a "peak state": one is geopolitical turmoil prompting investors to flock to safe-haven assets like gold; the other is rapid technological advancement driven by artificial intelligence and quantum computing, which has already stimulated $1 trillion in annual AI infrastructure investment and doubled the prices of some tech stocks. This creates a dumbbell effect in the market, with weights concentrated at two extremes—ultra-safe precious metals and highly speculative cryptocurrencies and tech stocks—leading to intense market volatility and an overreaction to changes in sentiment. Although these two forces offset each other in 2024, strengthening market resilience, a collision at the peak could trigger chaos, especially if major geopolitical shocks hinder innovation.
