"Nixon Capital warns of unsustainable market euphoria and capital spending in artificial intelligence, drawing parallels to the 2021 SaaS bubble, while positioning its own fundamentally sound, value-oriented portfolio to withstand potential market corrections."
Nixon Capital’s Q3 2025 commentary introduces the ‘Noah Principle,’ which centers on protecting the portfolio against risk factors and the ‘permanent loss of capital’—likened to a hole that sinks a ship. The firm highlights that while some market forces are within control, such as avoiding complex business models and aligning with competent management, others are external. They argue that current market participants are experiencing extreme optimism, specifically regarding Artificial Intelligence (AI), which has driven valuations beyond rational limits. Through the ‘Parable of Most Valuable Object,’ Nixon Capital draws a parallel to OpenAI, noting that despite ChatGPT's massive reach, OpenAI's projected $8 billion cash burn in 2025 and $115 billion by 2029 represents unsustainable spending. They compare a basket of 20 speculative AI-related companies—trading at 39x sales and 520x earnings—with their own portfolio, which generates 15 times the estimated sales and 30 times the earnings for less capitalization. Comparing the current AI hype to the 2021 SaaS bubble collapse, Nixon Capital maintains a cautious stance, choosing to build a fundamentally secure ‘ark’ to weather the inevitable market storm.
