Get on our phone calendar at https://TuckerRetirement.com.   Artificial intelligence has fueled one of the biggest investment booms in years—but are investors getting carried away?   In this episode, Scott Tucker explains how some investors are voluntarily paying up to 51% more for exposure to the same AI-related stocks by purchasing closed-end funds trading at massive premiums instead of buying the underlying investments directly.    He discusses what creates these premiums, why investor enthusiasm can drive prices far above the value of the underlying assets, and what history teaches us about speculative market bubbles.   Scott also shares practical ways investors can evaluate whether they're taking unnecessary risk and why diversification, valuation, and discipline matter—especially when excitement is replacing fundamentals.   If you're wondering whether your portfolio has become too concentrated in AI or other high-flying investments, schedule a complimentary Retirement Risk & Tax Analysis at https://TuckerRetirement.com.
