Users are selecting stocks at the forefront of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence and space exploration. AI is unsurprisingly a dominant theme, with traders opting for the exciting area of AI computing through names such as IREN, Nebius, and Micron.
“AI data centres need memory, and lots of it,” said Dan Lane, Investment Content Lead at Robinhood UK.
“That realisation has fuelled interest in the likes of Micron and SanDisk for a while now, with May chucking a few logs onto the fire after some political endorsements for domestic semiconductor manufacturing and a big price target hike on MU from Swiss bank UBS.
“The feeling is that the cycle for high-bandwidth memory and NAND storage (used to process huge AI workloads without bottlenecking the system) is just kicking off. If that’s the case, MU and SNDK could well be in a good position to capitalise on broader AI infrastructure spending.
“NVIDIA’s Q1 results beat expectations across the board, giving the rest of the sector, and market, a sign that there’s still wind in the AI sails. Even more important was the company’s forward guidance, which blew past even the most optimistic targets, helping lift shares across the sector. That positivity spread to AMD too, with the company getting a boost after NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang sought to reassure the market that the market for AI accelerators is expanding rapidly (translation: there should be plenty of AI pie to go around).”
