After a first quarter of the year marked by optimism, with jubilant celebrations over the bright future of the tech industry, reality takes hold. Recent statements by Fed leaders and recent developments on the world stage have reminded overly excited investors that there is still high inflation and a war in the Middle East.

The market has, by all means, had a great start to the year. Nvidia has doubled. The Dow has repeatedly come close to breaching a historic 40,000 level. The Nasdaq has risen 11%. The S&P has risen by close to 10%.
But there’s an important catch to this market rally.

OpenAI has already taken the world by storm, with its era-defining ChatGPT, which has inspired a lot of major tech companies to follow in its footsteps. OpenAI’s thrusting of AI into the public consciousness has indirectly allowed it to indirectly power the stock market for nearly a year.
