The next bull market in cryptocurrency and US stock markets will be driven by AI.

The AI bull market actually started in late 2022. Until before 2025, many people in the market were still skeptical, thinking it was just a cyclical hype bubble like the metaverse and NFT craze back then.

However, the situation clearly changed after 2025. AI became an important strategic focus in the US-China technology competition, with large tech companies continuously increasing investment, and tech giants like the US Big Seven Tech stocks continuously pouring money in. At this stage, whether AI is a trend of the times basically has no more controversy.

From a penetration perspective, this round of AI may be the technological dividend covering the widest population. In China, as long as people have some exposure to the internet, or even browse short videos, most of them already know that AI is the direction of the future.

However, it's worth noting that while the trend remains unchanged, the manifestation form varies at each stage.

If the past two years were the stage of large language models and computing power, then 2026's strongest direction will very likely be AI Agent.

So the real key going forward is actually not whether AI is a trend, but how to make investment layouts around the AI Agent main line.
