Wall Street consensus trades fail, AI panic triggers market volatility

ChainCatcher News, according to Bloomberg, as Wall Street enters 2026, investors are generally holding record-low levels of cash reserves and have minimized hedging, but several consensus trades have already failed within six weeks.

AI has shifted from a "sure-win" trade to a market threat, not to companies developing AI, but to asset-light businesses that could be replaced by AI, such as software companies, wealth managers, and tax advisors. Market volatility has intensified, asset correlations have increased, and sectors that were not favored at the beginning of the year—such as energy, consumer staples, and government bonds—have instead led the market. A Bank of America survey shows that investors' cash holdings have hit a historic low of 3.2%, and nearly half of fund managers have no downside protection measures. Analysts warn that beneath the calm surface of the market lies tremendous pressure, which could trigger more volatility shock events.

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that there are "ways" to implement the plan without increasing the deficit, but did not disclose specific cost-offset measures. She noted that the Treasury has studied this for "quite some time," and emphasized that "putting more money in Americans' pockets should be everyone's goal." House Speaker Mike Johnson said he had communicated with the President on this issue the previous night, but specific details have not yet been finalized, and it will take some time before the plan is implemented.
