Recently, US GDP data has been making headlines. The Commerce Department's third-quarter report showed a growth of 4.3%, far exceeding market expectations of 3.2%. As a result, Wall Street has started to discuss—how much credit does AI really deserve for this growth?

Yesterday, Elon Musk made a prediction directly on X: in the next 12 to 18 months, the US economy will achieve double-digit growth. You read that right—double digits. He also added a bold hypothesis—if applying intelligence becomes an economic growth indicator, then achieving triple-digit growth within five years is not a dream.

As soon as these remarks were made, the US stock market responded immediately. The S&P 500 index hit a new high last night, reaching 6937.32 points during trading, setting a new record. Market sentiment is quite clear: optimism about the US economic outlook is strong. From GDP data to stock market performance and industry leaders' predictions, all signals point in one direction—the economic opportunities of the AI era are truly here.

Elon Musk is bragging again... but this time the data is really impressive Two-digit growth? Wake up, buddy The new high in the S&P... retail investors are about to get cut again Can the AI concept be really sustained at this level? Feels like 4.3% is being hyped as a savior, exaggerated Could this rally be just a smoke screen... The US stock market hits a new high again, what about my stocks? Musk's predictions... just listen and forget about it Economic data looks good, but the money hasn't landed in our pockets The S&P is going crazy, how will the story unfold from here?

Elon Musk is bragging again... Can double-digit growth really be achieved? --- 4.3% exceeds expectations, but does AI really deserve that much credit? --- The S&P hits a new high again, feeling like the bubble is getting bigger and bigger. --- Triple-digit growth? Dream on, haha. --- GDP has increased, but it depends whether it's real growth or just data manipulation. --- Wall Street loves this approach, hype up a concept and watch the stock price soar. --- The AI economy opportunities are real, but blowing it up like this might be overdoing it. --- The real economy is stagnant; it can't be sustained by AI alone. --- Elon Musk's predictions sound familiar from last year, and he's still repeating them. --- A 4.3% GDP growth looks good, but when broken down, it's mainly supported by finance and technology.

Elon Musk is bragging again. Double-digit growth? Wake up, everyone. --- GDP rises by 4.3%. Are we really celebrating? Is AI really responsible for all this? Feels like a good story. --- S&P hits a new high, but my wallet remains unchanged. Classic case. --- Triple-digit growth in five years? Why do I feel like I've heard that a hundred times? --- Wall Street is now just relying on AI stories to rescue the market. No one can prove if it's right or wrong. --- Wait, how much did AI really drive this data? Or is it just an excuse for hype? --- Double-digit growth... Wake up, still dreaming? Reality won't be that perfect. --- Every time the big players speak, the stock market gets hyped. I knew it was a trick. --- Alright, time to go all-in on tech stocks again. Wishing all the retail investors quick gains.

Elon Musk is talking nonsense again. Double-digit growth? Wake up, everyone. --- GDP data looks good, but can this surge last... I'm a bit skeptical. --- So what if the S&P hits a new high? Who knows how big the bubble can get. --- AI is making great contributions? Don't be silly, isn't this just the result of printing money? --- Really believing it? It'll just be a mess again later. --- Can we stop just looking at these numbers? How's the real economy doing? --- Just painting a rosy picture again. After so many years of this routine, aren't you tired? --- It feels like risks are everywhere... Should we reduce our positions, everyone? --- Haha, just listen to this prophecy, don't take it seriously.

Elon Musk is bragging again, and this time he's really exaggerating. Double-digit growth? Just listen and don't take it seriously, everyone. GDP growth rate is indeed rapid, but is it appropriate to attribute it all to AI? It's the same AI salvation theory again, so annoying, time for a bearish signal. The US stock market has risen a bit too quickly this wave, be careful of catching the falling knife.
