IMF warns AI share crash threatens global financial stability
Original: Threat of AI share crash puts world financial stability at risk, says IMF

In its latest assessment, the fund also flagged rising government borrowing and growing vulnerability to cyber-attacks as further risks to the world economy, urging regulators to stay alert to concentrated exposures in technology stocks.
Why now: The IMF's warning about AI-fuelled market valuations comes as investors worry tech stocks may be overheating.
