- Situational Awareness fund had more than three-quarters of its assets concentrated in just five stocks at the end of the first half of 2026, with all positions essentially amounting to one large bet on AI
- The fund's manager had been dubbed the 'AI stock god,' with the heavily concentrated AI portfolio sitting on the cusp of a major correction in the sector
Why it matters: Concentrating more than 75% of a fund in five AI-linked stocks leaves the 'AI stock god's' Situational Awareness fund almost entirely dependent on a single sector thesis. When a major correction arrives, the fund's downside is amplified because there is no diversification cushion to absorb losses across the rest of the portfolio.
