## Resource

On today’s show we are taking a look at the stock market. We don’t really know what the future will hold and whether the market will go up or down. But we can observe trends and see what those trends are telling us. So far the runup in the stock market is narrowly concentrated in a few companies. There is no secret and no surprise that companies are reducing headcount with the advent of AI. I’m here to say that the benefits of AI are going to permeate through corporate income statements on a much broader basis. The real opportunity is for companies to leverage AI in creating new business models and to drive growth. That will come in the future. For now, the vast majority of companies are simply looking to leverage AI to create efficiency without necessarily redesigning their business entirely. The net result is that companies are going to be cost cutting their way to increased profitability over the next year. While it is true that very few companies have ever cost cut their way to greatness, many companies will always focus on expense management to deliver improved operating results to Wall Street. ------------- **Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast]( https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1 ) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast]( https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613 ) Website: [ www.victorjm.com ]( http://www.victorjm.com ) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce]( http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce ) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast]( http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734 ) Facebook: [ www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [ podcast@victorjm.com ](mailto: podcast@victorjm.com ) **Y Street Capi…
