It’s hard to predict what will happen in the market, so we decided to see what the AI is saying. I asked ChatGPT what will happen to stocks, interest rates, Bitcoin, and more in 2025. The chatbot believes the S&P 500 will be next. A positive year driven by technology.
Many people try to accurately predict the market, but even among Wall Street analysts who do this for a living, very few succeed.
Let’s take the S&P 500 as an example. The index ended 2024 at 5,882, marking the second consecutive year of gains of more than 20%. But at this time last year, Wall Street’s median price target for the stock by the end of 2024 was just $4,850, according to Bloomberg data. Not exactly close.
Experts are often wrong, so we thought it might be a good idea to put Big Tech’s trillion-dollar babies to work and ask AI to predict the economy and markets for 2025.
Can the S&P 500 achieve three consecutive years of outstanding returns? How many rate cuts will the Fed cut in 2025? Can Bitcoin go to the moon? Could chatbots displace top analysts? We’ll know in 12 months.
