Legendary hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones stated to CNBC that due to the impending arrival of large tech companies IPO, the stock market may face challenges next year.

"2027 will be a very, very difficult year for the stock market," Jones said on Tuesday during the program "Squawk Box" on CNBC. "You are likely to see the most negative capital flow environment for the U.S. stock market since 2002."

The founder and chief investment officer of Tudor Investment, Jones, stated that during the bull market over the past four years, corporate repurchases and mergers and acquisitions have provided support for the stock market for most of the time, as these factors reduced the supply of stocks. However, this situation is now changing: companies in the field of artificial intelligence such as Anthropic and OpenAI are about to conduct large-scale offerings, and SpaceX has also just completed an offering. Jones also mentioned that in order to raise funds for AI, more companies may also undertake secondary offerings.

This bull market has entered its fourth year, driven by the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, with the S&P 500 index more than doubling in value during this period. However, investors are concerned that as inflation rises, bond yields increase, and the Federal Reserve takes a more hawkish stance, this bull market may begin to lose momentum.

In May of this year, this billionaire investor stated that he had purchased more stocks related to the development of AI, while also observing similarities to the early days of technological prosperity. However, he also compared the current market period to 1999, which was about a year before the burst of the internet bubble in 2000.

“I’ll be short-selling for a whole year. Really—there’s almost no value at all,” said Jones. “In 1998 and 1999, you saw so many new issues, so many IPO, and actually the same was true in 2000, 2001, and 2002 as well. Those years were the easiest to be short-selling because you kept seeing these new offerings, continuously adding supply to the market.”
