Country Risk, Tech Valuations, & How the Markets Lost their Predictive Power — ft. Aswath Damodaran

August 8, 2025·1h 5m

Aswath Damodaran, Professor of Finance at NYU's Stern School of Business, returns to the show to discuss America’s country risk in 2025 and how markets have become more reactive than predictive. Damodaran also shares his insights on AI hype, Google’s valuation, and why chasing “the next Amazon” is a losing game. Plus, he gives his blunt take on Bitcoin-holding companies, the broken IPO pipeline, and how private markets are rewriting the rules for capital, liquidity, and access. Note: Prof G Markets will be on summer break until August 25th.
