1985's consecutive rise occurred during an optimistic period marked by the benefits of Reaganomics and the onset of the personal computer revolution. The similar rise in 2026 reflects the current AI capital expenditure, corporate earnings resilience, and market risk appetite, with tech-weighted stocks being the main drivers.
In terms of capital flow, institutional and passive funds continue to flow into the S&P 500, especially into heavyweight stocks like the Magnificent 7, resembling the structural rotation from traditional industries to tech stocks in the 1980s, with funds further concentrating on high-certainty growth assets.
This milestone signifies increased confidence in the long-term bull market of U.S. stocks, but caution is needed regarding potential volatility risks under high valuations. The market is currently in a phase balancing AI-driven cycles and macro policies.

The market always repeats similar stories, with the protagonist changing from Windows to AI; those who truly make significant profits are those who recognize the script and hold long-term.
