Investors are eyeing opportunities in artificial intelligence (AI) stocks amid a heightened focus on the technology. With $3,000 set aside, a suggested strategy involves investing $1,000 in Microsoft, Apple, and CrowdStrike.
Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has established a strategic partnership with OpenAI to integrate its AI models into products using its Azure cloud platform. This collaboration aims to enhance Microsoft’s offerings while allowing the company to focus on product integration. Microsoft’s financials have shown strong performance, thanks in part to its Office products.
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) has recently introduced Apple Intelligence, a new AI feature designed to enhance user experience on its devices. The upcoming product releases this fall are expected to boost revenue, which currently relies heavily on hardware sales, particularly the iPhone, contributing to 46% of its revenue. Meanwhile, CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) has faced a significant stock drop of over 40% due to a software update that caused a major IT outage. Despite this setback, the company remains a key player in AI-driven cybersecurity and offers a promising long-term investment given the vast cybersecurity market.
