DBS Group Chief Investment Officer Hou Wey Fook said that Nvidia’s price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio and projected 70% earnings growth next year indicate that AI-driven tech stocks are still far from forming a bubble. Aggregate data shows Nvidia’s current 12-month forward P/E ratio stands at 17x. Hou compared this to Cisco Systems’ valuation of around 100x before the dot-com bubble burst.

He added that semiconductor and AI investments still have "tailwinds". However, Hou recommended adopting a "barbell strategy" to "control overall portfolio volatility": allocating to tech stocks on the growth end, while pairing with investment-grade fixed-income assets to deliver stable returns, and using hedge funds and gold as intermediate risk-diversification tools.
