The US stock market is repeating the euphoria of four years ago associated with meme stocks. In 2021, the most famous of them were the securities of GameStop, a chain of video game stores, and AMC Entertainment movie theaters. Their quotations retail traders, negotiating in social networks, inflated dozens of times, depriving hedge funds of billions of dollars. But this was a prelude to a market crash in 2022. Memomania raises similar concerns now.

The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

Risks remain high despite the S&P 500's rise, so it's better to invest in more stable companies, Wall Street says

Investors ignore analysts and take risks in the market: why is this happening?

CoreWeave, Inc.

Palantir Technologies Inc.

Shares of CoreWeave, a provider of cloud-based services for developing and training AI models, have soared 300% since March, while military and civilian AI developer Palantir is up more than 460% in 12 months. At the same time, their price/earnings multiples are highly inflated compared to companies in the S&amp;P 500 index. While retail investors are buying up both companies in the hope that they will repeat the fate of Nvidia, one of the main beneficiaries of the AI boom, such rapid growth is causing some analysts to compare them to so-called meme stocks. Are the risks justified and what is needed to make the growth sustainable?
