Inflation And The AI Supercycle

Hirsch sees October weakness as a seasonal buying opportunity within a decade-long AI-and-inflation-driven "Super Boom" targeting Nasdaq 74,000 by 2036.

  • Super Boom projection: Hirsch's 2010 call for Dow 38,820 by 2025 hit a year early; his new chart projects Nasdaq 74,000 by 2036, an 11.1% CAGR versus Nasdaq's 13.7% historical average since 1971.
  • October phobia is bullish: Despite the early-October selloff, Hirsch calls October the best month to buy stocks historically, driven by mutual fund deadlines and year-end institutional positioning.
