VT Markets Finds AI Poised for a Second Wave of Growth in Latest 2025 Q1 Economic Outlook
For most, however, the future of AI remains opaque. Despite its prominence, questions persist about the technology’s evolution and its impact on markets and investors. To address these uncertainties, VT Markets‘ latest 2025 Q1 Economic Outlook report provides an in-depth analysis of AI market valuations, technological maturity, and investor sentiment, along with forward-looking insights into its development.
Tech Stocks Lead the Way as U.S. Markets Maintain Strong Performance
In 2024, the U.S. stock market delivered what many would call a stunning performance. Driven by the tech sector, all three major indices reached historic highs. As of December 25, the Nasdaq Composite gained 35.66% year-to-date, slightly lower than last year’s 43.4% increase but still highlighting the robust growth of tech stocks. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average rose by 27.35% and 14.8%, respectively.
The AI-driven tech sector further cemented its dominance in the market. ChatGPT’s success underscored the explosive growth potential of AI technologies. This has come despite calls for concern – such claims, which typically cite potential valuation bubbles and skepticism about sustainability, remain significant.
Three Key Concerns Fueling the AI Bubble Debate
With the markets’ growing optimism surrounding AI, concerns about the existence of a valuation bubble are growing. VT Markets has identified three critical risks contributing to the current market unease:
Overvaluation Risks:
Skyrocketing stock prices mask underlying vulnerabilities. For instance, Nvidia’s stock soared from $15 at the start of 2023 to $140, a ninefold increase, propelling its market cap beyond $3 trillion, second only to Apple. Similarly, AI-related companies’ valuations often exceed their actual earnings potential. Using the “Buffett Indicator,” current U.S. market valuations are nearing levels seen before the dot-com bubble of 2000.
Commercialisation Challenges:
While AI technologies have made significant strides, the path from experimentation to real-world application remains arduous. Training large AI models requires substantial investment in computing power, energy, and infrastructure, placing immense financial pressure on companies.
Market Sentiment and FOMO:
The fear of missing out (FOMO) has driven a flood of capital into the AI sector, creating a competitive frenzy that heightens bubble risks. Investor enthusiasm, unchecked by caution, may inflate valuations further.
The Catalyst for AI’s Second Wave of Growth
The progression of technological revolutions often hinges on hardware development. Historically, Nvidia’s A100 and H100 GPUs have been integral in supporting generative AI technologies like ChatGPT. However, the next phase of AI growth will depend on breakthroughs in software innovation and application layers.
While generative AI faces technical bottlenecks, rational investment from major tech players have provided some level of market reassurance. Unlike the dot-com bubble of 2000, today’s AI investments emphasise on long-term value, a strategy which is more likely to reduce the likelihood of widespread panic even though there may be short-term profitability challenges.
The Long-Term Promise of AI
The VT Markets research desk highlights that while the AI industry must navigate bubbles and overheated investments in the short term, its long-term potential remains undeniable. With continuous advances in hardware demand and software innovation, AI is poised to transform global industrial ecosystems further.
Through a combination of technological breakthroughs and measured investment strategies, the AI sector is expected to sustain its momentum and reshape industries worldwide.

Special Event for F2P Game Developers Launches Alongside the Announcement
SINGAPORE- Media OutReach Newswire – 17 August 2026 – With the global game market grown to an approximate value of US$200 billion annually, JUNEiNTER unveils a model designed to estimate the future revenue of individual games.
JUNEiNTER announced the release of the “LCP Model,” which estimates future revenue based on operating data from live service games and a public event of a free-trial marking its launch.
Whereas games generate recurring monthly cash flows and function as digital assets, the industry has lacked established standards to calculate the future revenue of individual titles — making their revenue streams difficult to be utilized as measurable financial assets.
The LCP Model was developed from the fundamental question: “How much revenue will our game generate?” The S66 Engine, which applies the LCP Model, analyzes actual service data accumulated from launch to calculate potential future revenue. Accordingly, it has been simulated about 90,000 times, confirming its consistency and reproducibility.
To mark the unveiling of the LCP Model, JUNEiNTER is holding a public event for developers to get revenue estimations for their own games. Eligible participants are games that use the F2P model monetized through in-app purchases (IAP) or combining in-app purchases with in-app advertising. Steam and console games are excluded.
Participating developers will also be offered additional special benefits for future usage. Eligibility requirements and details of the benefits are available on JUNEiNTER’s official website (https://gv.juneinter.com).
A JUNEiNTER spokesperson said, “Revenue estimates generated by the S66 Engine are not intended to be investment solicitation, fundraising, or a guarantee of returns. The results are estimates based on the data submitted by developers and the model’s criteria, and may differ from actual revenue.”

JUNEiNTER Co., Ltd
Founded in 2002, JUNEiNTER Co., Ltd. is a South Korean game company that has developed, serviced, and published online and mobile games, best known for publishing GetAmped (PC) and My Oasis (mobile). The company has expanded its lineup through in-house development, co-development, and investment over the years.
A Shift From Distribution to Brand Ownership
Since its founding, The Cocoa Trees has operated primarily as a retailer and distributor, offering more than 60 international confectionery brands across more than 20 stores in Singapore.
Kaki’s marks the company’s first move into developing and producing its own branded product line, in addition to distributing existing third-party brands such as Ritter Sport and Lindt.
A Range Built Around Everyday Singaporean Flavours
Kaki’s flavours draw on Singapore’s daily food rituals, from kopitiam mornings to late-night gatherings over local delicacies.
The range includes Nanyang Kopi, also referred to as Bittersweet Symphony, a coffee-flavoured chocolate capturing the taste of traditional freshly brewed coffee. Pandan Kaya is inspired by the slow-cooked, hand-stirred kaya used in a classic Singapore breakfast. Teh Tarik and Tropical Notes draws on the pulled-tea beverage alongside regional fruit profiles, including sunny mango, lychee, and a Singapore Sling-inspired blend.
Packaging Includes Local Storytelling
Kaki’s is designed as an everyday snack, a thoughtful gift for friends and family, and a corporate gift snack option for the workplace, as well as a culturally rooted souvenir for visitors to Singapore. Each bar comes wrapped in limited-edition artwork, with local fun facts and short, down-to-earth stories printed on the back. The bars come in a multi-piece format meant for sharing, rather than single-serve wrapping.
“Kaki’s was never meant to just be a snack on a shelf. It was built around the small, everyday moments Singaporeans already share with each other, over coffee, over breakfast, over the little rituals we return to again and again. This is the first time we have built a brand from the ground up, and we wanted it to feel like something that brings people closer, not just something they eat alone,” said Pamela Loo, Deputy CEO, The Cocoa Trees.
Kaki’s is available at The Cocoa Trees stores across Singapore and online at www.thecocoatrees.com.
