TechFlow News: According to Bloomberg, on February 14, as Wall Street entered 2026, investors broadly held record-low cash reserves and minimal hedges. Yet six weeks later, multiple consensus trades have already gone awry. AI has shifted from a “sure-win” trade to a market threat—not to companies developing AI, but to light-asset businesses potentially displaced by AI, such as software firms, wealth managers, and tax advisors. Market volatility has intensified, cross-asset correlations have strengthened, and sectors initially overlooked at year’s start—energy, consumer staples, and U.S. Treasuries—have instead led the market. A Bank of America survey shows investor cash holdings have hit a historic low of 3.2%, and nearly half of fund managers have no downside protection in place. Analysts warn that beneath the market’s apparent calm lies immense underlying stress, potentially triggering further volatility shocks.
