## Summary

Jim Cramer, host of *Mad Money*, warned on Monday that a surge in AI-related IPOs and capital raises could weaken the bull market. He cited Anthropic’s IPO filing as a key example, noting that its potential fundraising—alongside other tech giants like Meta, Alphabet, SpaceX, and Oracle—could overwhelm investor demand. With $148 billion already raised through IPOs this year, Cramer fears supply may outpace demand, mirroring the dot-com bubble’s collapse in 2000.

Cramer emphasized that AI companies themselves are not the problem; many have strong fundamentals and established businesses. However, he cautioned that excessive capital raising could divert funds from broader market growth, straining liquidity. His portfolio holds shares of Meta and Alphabet, and he warned that debt and equity markets may soon run out of capital to support these ambitions. He did not call for a market top but expressed concern over the current trajectory.
