AI Apocalypse Now: Traders Dump Stocks in Panic Over AI Disruption

Traders are fleeing stocks feared to be under threat from AI

Wall Street's running scared—and Silicon Valley's laughing all the way to the bank.

### The Great AI Exodus

Portfolios are bleeding as institutional investors make like Neo dodging bullets. Every sector from copywriting to radiology is getting the 'sell now, ask questions later' treatment. Remember when analysts said AI would take decades to reshape industries? Try 18 months.

### Short Circuits in Traditional Markets

Blue-chip stocks are getting mauled by algorithmic trading bots that don't need lunch breaks or bonuses. Meanwhile, crypto markets—built on decentralized automation from day one—are seeing record inflows. Funny how the 'risky' assets suddenly look like lifeboats.

### The Cynic's Bonus Round

Nothing unites hedge funds like herd mentality—first they pumped the AI bubble, now they're shorting their own hype. Somewhere, a Goldman Sachs algo is placing bets on both sides while charging 2-and-20 for the privilege.
