Investors are shifting their focus from major artificial intelligence (AI) companies to less obvious beneficiaries of the technology boom, as concerns grow about the sustainability of gains in the sector. Following a significant rise in Nvidia Corp.'s stock, which surged sevenfold since the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, there is now a broader market search for new investment drivers. This shift is influenced by geopolitical tensions and changes in global monetary policy, prompting equity investors to reconsider their strategies. As a result, shares in utilities and property firms have seen a rally this quarter, indicating a diversification in investment approaches beyond the traditional tech and communications sectors. The trend reflects a cautious sentiment among investors regarding the rapid advancements in AI and the potential volatility associated with leading tech stocks.
