Next AI winners are not your usual suspects - Fox Business
The rapid rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is driving movement in financial markets and some companies that stand to benefit from it may not be the traditional tech names that typically come up in AI discussions. An example of this can is the recent rise of Nvidia, which is the world’s most valuable chip maker and during Tuesday trading briefly joined the $1 trillion market capitalization club – a threshold only Apple, Amazon, Google and Microsoft have surpassed on Wall Street. Nvidia’s status as a leading producer of semiconductors plus hardware and software used to power supercomputers and machine learning models fueled its rapid rise despite not having the name recognition of the other big tech companies. But it’s not just tech hardware and software firms that stand to benefit. A report by multinational investment bank UBS looked at the opportunities and threats AI creates for companies in a variety of industries and the firms that are positioned to take advantage of generative AI. It also analyzed the potential for AI to impact growth and costs, and whether it will either reduce or intensify the competitive landscape in a given sector. WHAT DO RETAIL INVESTORS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT AI INVESTING? A report by UBS sheds light on some companies that aren't typically associated with AI but are nonetheless positioned to reap its rewards. (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer / AP Newsroom) The UBS report was based on the findings of its teams of analysts who focus on 31 sectors and sub-sectors of the economy. They found that 18 sectors anticipate that generative AI will increase revenue, 17 believe it will drive increased competition, and all but one see it helping to save costs – with the internet sector the outlier. Sectors in which UBS analysts see opportunities for both cost-savings and increased revenue without heightened competition risk include food retail, general retail, real estate, mining, capital goods, telecoms, semiconductors, tech hardware, medical devices and luxury goods. Here’s a look at some of the companies that UBS analysts believe are well-positioned to leverage AI in their respective sectors. ORDERING FAST FOOD? A ROBOT MAY TAKE THE ORDER, WHETHER YOU KNOW IT OR NOT McDonald’s, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Domino’s Pizza and Wendy’s were the four restaurant stocks that UBS views as favorably positioned for deploying generative AI. The report notes the "companies are using generative AI technology to cut labor costs, improve customer experience and drive sales," which will help "create long-term sales growth and improve profitability, solidifying key advantages."
