The year-long rally and recent retreat in artificial intelligence-related stocks have left many investors wondering what to do next. Taking advantage of this once-in-a-generation megatrend goes beyond stock picking

ChatGPT’s launch in late 2022 fuelled an enthusiasm for AI like no other, driving an estimated US$4 trillion surge in the value of global equities, according to our estimates. That’s equivalent to roughly the annual output of Japan – the world’s third-largest economy.
