Fund manager concentrated bets on a handful of AI-linked stocks

As of the end of the first half of 2026, more than three quarters of the Situational Awareness fund was effectively a single wager on AI.

MarketWatch reports that an investor nicknamed the “AI stock god” held highly concentrated positions in the Situational Awareness fund before it later “blew up.”

According to MarketWatch, at the end of the first half of 2026, more than three quarters of the fund was allocated across just five stocks, which were described as amounting to one big bet on AI.

MarketWatch also said that more than three quarters of the fund’s holdings were focused on those AI-linked names as the sector was approaching a major correction.
