BlockBeats News, August 23, BitMine Chairman Tom Lee stated on CNBC that next week could be a turning point for the stock market. Currently, AI stock trading has stalled, mainly due to concerns about data centers and suppressed anti-government sentiment in the United States. The key issue is whether AI confidence can return after the stall. If NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang can demonstrate at the upcoming event that the demand for AI computing power remains strong, it will help rekindle market confidence and drive the AI sector out of consolidation.
Tom Lee also emphasized that Federal Reserve uncertainty continues to accumulate. The upcoming public appearances of a series of Federal Reserve officials will be another significant market signal. The S&P 500 has been hovering near 7678 points recently, with a cumulative decline of about 1.4% this week. The market is currently facing dual concerns about the sustainability of AI capital expenditure and the monetary policy path. The positioning next week is a key window to observe the market's directional choice. Whether the AI demand signal resonates with Federal Reserve policy expectations will determine the short-term direction of risk assets.
