Entering 2026, clear signals from fiscal and monetary policies are driving a revaluation of risk assets. Multiple sectors such as AI, private credit, precious metals, emerging markets, and cryptocurrencies are showing new investment opportunities.



Let's start with the AI sector. The sharp correction at the end of last year caused many AI concept stocks to fall significantly, but this decline has reset previously inflated valuations. Interestingly, the market's demand for computing power, token ecosystems, and productivity improvements remains strong. This means that after valuation corrections, AI investments now offer a much higher cost-performance ratio compared to the near-suffocating highs of October last year.

As the demand for AI electricity surges, nuclear energy concepts are also rising. Recent price corrections have provided better entry opportunities for investors focusing on medium- and long-term potential.

In terms of gold, as a symbol of the global currency asset resurgence, recent adjustments have also created good entry points. Gold is becoming an important asset for hedging against global uncertainties.

Business Development Companies (BDCs), after experiencing pain in 2025, now have more attractive yields and valuations. This is a forgotten high-yield asset class worth revisiting.

The growth momentum in the Indian market remains strong, with long-term growth potential still a key focus.

As for cryptocurrencies, the long-term bullish outlook is clear, but short-term signals are not definitive. Flexibility in judgment based on on-chain data and market sentiment is necessary.

Overall, the market environment in 2026 is unusually transparent, with the key being to choose the right direction. Under clearer policy expectations, more aggressive risk appetite strategies are becoming feasible.

I really understand this wave of valuation kills by AI, but the problem is that retail investors' small capital is still a bit hesitant to enter now. Trading gold and nuclear energy together—does that cancel out the risks? Cryptocurrency short-term signals are too fuzzy, so let's wait for on-chain data to see what happens. Cold investments like BDCs are indeed overlooked, but could it be another trap set by institutions for retail investors? The Indian market has been rising for so long, is it a bit late to get in now?

AI wave's valuation surge indeed provided an opportunity to get in, but the question is who can hold on until the end? Anyway, I didn't manage to catch it. It's a bit funny that nuclear energy is soaring along with it; it feels like just hype, is there real fundamental support? I do believe in gold; at least there should be some safe-haven assets to ease nerves. Cryptocurrency is long-term bullish, but short-term is unclear—this statement is almost meaningless, haha. For me, 2026 mainly depends on whether the crypto world will have another crazy wave; everything else is just clouds.

AI's recent sharp decline is indeed fierce, but I haven't rushed to buy the dip either. I still feel there's more to come. Nuclear energy is on the rise, huh? This thing has been seriously underestimated for a long time. Should I jump in on gold this wave? I'm a bit unsure. BDCs? Never heard of them. Feels like another scheme where institutions manipulate to harvest retail investors. Short-term signals in crypto are unclear, meaning I don't really know which way it's heading. It's still more reliable to look at on-chain data. This article seems very "insightful," but ultimately, making money still depends on your own judgment.

The valuation of the AI sector has been undervalued. This wave definitely presents a buying opportunity, but it still depends on policy directions.

Huh? The recent AI valuation crash is actually an opportunity? I’m a bit skeptical about this logic... --- Nuclear + AI demand surging, this is definitely something to pay attention to --- The saying that it's a good time to build positions in gold, isn’t this what’s always said during every correction? --- Long-term bullish on crypto but short-term signals are unclear? Isn’t that just not saying anything? LOL --- BDCs really have been forgotten, high-yield assets should be buried like this --- India’s surge? Looking at the data from the first half of the year, I’m a bit confused --- 2026 market "rarely clear"... this sounds like the rhetoric before a market peak --- On-chain data and market sentiment, honestly, it’s still just betting on the mood --- Risk appetite strategies are feasible, so should we be cautious?
