Major AI stocks are wavering as investors assess the impact of decreasing hardware costs and their effects on technology spending. T. Rowe Price’s Tony Wang said in a latest program on CNBC that while Mag. 7 companies are still strong, there are opportunities to look elsewhere as the technology-related gains broaden out.
“You saw the Mag. 7 really dominate the last two years, and I think going into this year, I think that there’s a lot of concern over the capex that’s being spent. I mean, they’re kind of becoming fundamentally different businesses in some respect in terms of the capital intensity. And then on top of that, you had kind of more inline reports, and so when you’re spending a lot of capex and you’re coming in line, I think that tends to set up for a tougher stock reaction. And so, you know, I think there’s other areas in tech that naturally things will broaden out to, like things that have more bottoming fundamentals and can have a little bit easier setup. So I think that, you know, we’re looking for more broadening, and I think that these are still very good companies and still like a core part of tech portfolios, but I think there’s opportunity elsewhere as well.”
