“I’m making a prognostication — we’re going up,” Bloomberg quoted Cohen as saying. “I’m actually pretty bullish,” he reportedly added.
The hedge fund founder believes the rising AI industry will likely create new jobs. Even though he is worried about the “types of jobs that will be displaced,” Bloomberg wrote that he believes profit margins will improve, reducing pressure on the Federal Reserve to combat inflation with additional rate hikes. As a result, it will boost markets, he told the audience.
Cohen is not alone in his stance. Bloomberg said fellow hedge fund manager Stan Druckenmiller commented last week that “AI is very, very real and could be every bit as impactful as the internet.”
