AI hype is reshaping how Indian retail investors allocate stocks and hedge risk. A hot thread warns of an AI bubble and asks for India-focused hedges, using OpenAI's ChatGPT as context [1].
From that discussion: hedges in today’s markets include sticking with Indian IT exposure; the post mentions Wipro as a possible hedge amid a tech-led downturn, warning about correlations during crashes [1].
Another strand points to longer-term hedging, including US exposure and bullion. Retirement-minded investors mix in Parag Parikh Flexi Cap mutual fund for diversification across India, US, and bullion; the plan is to double a portfolio in ~5 years [2].

- Gold and silver as long-term hedges [2]

Bottom line: AI chatter nudges Indian investors toward a blended approach—domestic IT bets like Wipro plus US exposure and bullion for risk management [1][2].
