Sevens Report: OpenAI’s $500B Valuation Rekindles AI Bubble Debate

Employee confidence strong, but lofty revenue multiples raise caution


Is OpenAI’s stock sale the latest evidence we’re in an AI bubble?

The Sevens Report said Friday that OpenAI’s latest secondary stock sale, which valued the company at around $500 billion, has reignited debate over whether surging enthusiasm for artificial intelligence reflects confidence or a brewing bubble.

The sale allowed employees to offload up to $10 billion in equity, though only $6.6 billion was ultimately offered — a sign that insiders remain confident in OpenAI’s growth trajectory. Sevens noted that the transaction was a liquidity event, not new fundraising, underscoring strong investor appetite after OpenAI’s first-half 2025 revenue already surpassed full-year 2024 totals.

Still, the valuation implies 25 times expected 2025 revenue of $20 billion, which the firm said demands rapid monetization to justify. “Leadership will have to prove the ability to translate growth into profitability sooner rather than later,” analysts cautioned.

Sevens also warned that fading intraday strength in AI-linked names like Nvidia shows rising risk that the AI narrative could be challenged, potentially triggering profit-taking across tech and the broader equity market.

Gov’t shutdown could mean no clean jobs data until December

Sevens Report Flags ‘Bull Trap’ in Stocks Under Dow Theory

Transports’ weakness signals risk despite record highs


Charles Dow would describe this market as a ’bull trap’ says this analyst

The Sevens Report warned Friday that the U.S. stock rally fits the definition of a “bull trap” under Dow Theory. While the Dow Industrials have hit new highs, the Dow Transports remain negative year-to-date, flashing a bearish divergence.

The note cited two key principles: Confirmation and Trend Reversals. Both indexes must rise together to confirm expansion, but transports’ weakness suggests pressure in travel, logistics, and freight.

Sevens emphasized that despite four of five major equity benchmarks hitting records, Dow Theory would still label the advance a technical bull trap.

Tom Essaye Interviewed on Yahoo Finance as the Fed Faces Twin Pressures

Tom Essaye: Fed Faces Twin Pressures of Rising Inflation and Weakening Jobs


Fed is in the ‘worst possible’ position, analyst says

Central bank policy outlook grows more complicated heading into fall

The Federal Reserve is under mounting pressure as inflation shows signs of picking up while the labor market begins to soften, according to Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research.

Speaking on Opening Bid, Essaye explained that this combination leaves the Fed in a difficult policy position heading into the fall. The central bank must balance the risk of tightening too little against the danger of tightening too much at a time when economic growth is already showing cracks.

“The Fed is caught between two mandates,” Essaye noted, adding that rising producer and consumer price data alongside weakening job gains increases the likelihood of a policy dilemma in the coming months.

Sevens Report: Ethereum’s Rally vs. Bitcoin Raises Red Flags

ETH/BTC rallies have historically aligned with equity blowoff tops


Why the long-ETH/short-BTC trade matters

According to the latest Sevens Report, Ethereum has “meaningfully outperformed Bitcoin with the Long-ETH/Short-BTC trade accelerating rapidly as both cryptos surged towards record highs.” While many traditional investors might dismiss the shift, Sevens emphasized that “there is a key underlying takeaway sourced in cross-asset analysis.”

Historically, sharp ETH/BTC rallies have coincided with “squeezy yet powerful rallies in equity markets preceding near-term blowoff tops.” Examples include the 2017 ETH/BTC surge ahead of the 2018 equity drawdown, a 2020 spike before the pandemic selloff, and a 2021 rally that foreshadowed the “Double Bear Market” of 2022.

Sevens noted that the latest 130% ETH/BTC rally off April lows “has obviously coincided with the resilient tech-led rally in stocks off the 2025 lows.” Unlike 2023–2024, when ETH lagged while equities climbed, the current setup suggests stocks may be vulnerable if crypto momentum fades.

“Bottom line, in prior cases over the last 10 years, every time we have seen such a robust and pronounced rise in the ETH/BTC crypto-pair, stocks have been sprinting higher in lockstep. However, once the upside momentum faded from ETH/BTC rally, it would have been prudent for equity investors to put their guard up,” Sevens concluded.

Bitcoin Slides After Inflation Data; Essaye Sees Long-Term Bullish Shift

Sevens Report founder notes policy support and strategic reserve chatter


Bitcoin sinks following hotter-than-expected inflation print, Bessent comments on strategic reserve

Bitcoin dropped following hotter-than-expected inflation, with strategists highlighting both macro headwinds and the Trump administration’s pro-crypto stance. “The administration is pushing crypto. They are pushing Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the lead dog in the crypto market,” said Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research, in a Yahoo Finance interview.

While Essaye acknowledged near-term froth, he stressed that structural changes—such as policy support and discussions of a strategic reserve—could underpin longer-term strength in the asset class.
