The AI sector is experiencing significant growth, with hyperscalers investing heavily in custom chip development to gain an edge. While Nvidia remains a dominant force, companies like Google are challenging its position with custom TPUs. This increased competition and government focus on critical mineral supply chains may lead to heightened volatility across AI-related stocks. Companies like CoreWeave, Applied Digital, and Nebius Group are positioned as beneficiaries of AI infrastructure build-outs, showing strong upward trends. Oracle, despite recent pullbacks, has also shown resilience and growth, though its stock exhibits higher volatility due to its cyclical nature. Investors should monitor regulatory developments and geopolitical factors impacting AI supply chains and demand for compute power.
