Key insights
- An individual investor's AI infrastructure stock basket is presented, focusing on mid-cap companies involved in compute/cloud, connectivity silicon, optical manufacturing, cooling, data center infrastructure, site prep, power, and chip inspection. The basket reflects speculative interest in the AI sector's growth potential, but the small allocation suggests limited overall market impact.
Hey all,
I know that everyone is sick to the teeth of hearing about AI infrastructure picks etc. As a very small play I have created my own basket (mostly for fun, it's just to scratch the itch). Could you guys have a look over my list and tell me if you agree with any or have suggestions/reasoning for swapping some out?
As I said this is a mostly speculative/fun play and I've only invested about 1% of my total portfolio. The majority of my funds are in an all world ETF and a bit of Google. My reasoning for this is that the absolute crazy hype around this entire sector might make a lot of people money but with excessive hype comes exceptional volatility. This is just my way of scratching that itch in a small way. Also final add on, I chose mostly mid cap companies, not all but most. Thank you and please be polite, this is not a super serious make or break investment basket just a speculative one.
