AI infrastructure companies now account for 40% of the S&P 500’s market capitalization.

The concentration is even more extreme in private markets, with AI capturing 87% of venture capital funding year-to-date.
By comparison, in 1999, during the Dot-Com bubble, less than 40% of venture capital funding was related to internet companies.
