Summary
Bob Elliott is the CEO and chief investment officer of Unlimited Funds, where he deploys hedge fund strategies into low-cost ETFs. He also authors the Nonconsensus Substack. He joins Phil Rosen on Full Signal to discuss why AI earnings expectations are detached from macro reality, the gap between $5 trillion of capex and $150 billion of AI revenue, how households are propping up corporate margins, and where he sees value beyond the AI trade.
