  • BofA Flags Risk of Bubble With Upcoming SpaceX, OpenAI IPOs
    May 24, 2026, 12:12 PM EDT. Bank of America strategist Michael Hartnett has warned that the planned initial public offerings (IPOs) of SpaceX and OpenAI could push tech sector concentration in the S&P 500 beyond historical bubble peaks. Currently, tech stocks make up over 44% of the index, with the top nine tech names representing nearly 38%. The addition of SpaceX, valued near $1.75 trillion, and OpenAI, around $1 trillion, threatens to push single-sector dominance past 48%, a level associated with past market bubbles such as in 1929 and 1999. This increased concentration could heighten market risk and liquidity concerns, especially for investors in popular low-cost index funds heavily weighted towards a handful of tech giants.
