As artificial intelligence continues to reshape industries, Savart&#8217;s AI engine, APART, is identifying promising investment opportunities beyond the expensive and overvalued &#8220;AI poster boys&#8221; in both the listed and unlisted space.
What Happened: APART AI is currently favoring the automotive sector, companies providing the &#8220;shovels&#8221; for the AI gold rush, and capital goods industries as top picks for 2025, suggesting that the real value might lie in the supporting infrastructure rather than the most visible AI players.
&#8220;Our APART AI is currently heavy on automobiles, AI-shovel businesses, and capital goods industries,&#8221; said Sankarsh Chanda, founder and CEO of Savart which owns the AI-driven investment research engine, APART AI.
Highlighting a pattern of stock-picking by APART AI among the AI-linked stocks, Chanda added &#8220;We have noticed is that our system is focused on picking those selling shovels rather than the gold sellers in this AI gold rush. This is also likely because of the over valuation of the AI poster boys in both the listed and unlisted space.&#8221;
Unlike traditional asset management and even robo-advisors, APART&#8217;s data-driven approach eliminates human bias and emotional decision-making, focusing on long-term wealth creation, explained Chanda in a conversation with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com">Benzinga</a>.

Why It Matters: Talking about the unpredictability surrounding Donald Trump&#8216;s new policies on trade and tax, and its impact on the stock market Chanda said that &#8220;volatility presents a lot of opportunities especially for long term investors and more so for foreign capital looking to enter the American market.&#8221;
&#8220;While the road may be rocky over the next few years, the American story seems stronger than ever,&#8221; he adds.
Addressing the future of AI amid the emergence of DeepSeek's modestly priced models, Chanda said, &#8220;AI is going to be more accessible, affordable and omni-present over the coming years.&#8221;
Price Action: Some exchange-traded funds consisting of AI-linked stocks have given a handsome year-to-date and annual return. Here is a list:

Earnings Scheduled For February 6, 2025

In a blog post on Tuesday, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) highlighted the potential of artificial intelligence to enhance market efficiency while also posing risks of increased volatility and cyber threats.
What Happened: The IMF&#8217;s Global Financial Stability Report delves into the role of AI in financial institutions and its potential impact on markets. AI&#8217;s rapid data processing capabilities could revolutionize markets, but its adoption remains limited among investors. The report anticipates growth in AI-driven trading, especially in liquid asset classes like equities and bonds, which could lead to market instability. This was evident during the March 2020 market turmoil involving AI-driven ETFs.
Patent data reveals a surge in AI-related innovations for algorithmic trading, indicating a forthcoming wave of technological advancements. The IMF warns that AI might shift investments to less regulated nonbank financial intermediaries, complicating market oversight. 
To tackle these challenges, the IMF suggests enhancing regulation and supervision of AI-related activities, implementing new volatility response mechanisms, and strengthening oversight of nonbank intermediaries.

Why It Matters: The potential impact of AI on financial markets has been a topic of concern for some time. In June, IMF Deputy Chief Gita Gopinath warned about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39224309/imfs-gita-gopinath-warns-ai-could-disrupt-financial-markets-supply-chains-and-more-policy-actions-no">AI&#8217;s disruptive potential</a> on financial markets and other sectors, emphasizing the need for policy actions to mitigate risks while harnessing AI&#8217;s benefits. Her comments highlighted the importance of monitoring AI&#8217;s adoption and application across various sectors.
Additionally, the 2024 U.S. presidential election has been identified as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/10/41125551/why-the-us-presidential-election-will-be-a-watershed-moment-for-artificial-intelligence-in-trading-f">pivotal moment for AI </a>in trading. The election&#8217;s unpredictability, coupled with AI&#8217;s growing role in forecasting for broker-dealers, suggests that AI could face significant challenges in the coming months. This period may serve as a watershed moment for trading intelligence, as election uncertainty could lead to increased market volatility.
Price Action: At the time of writing during Tuesday&#8217;s after-hours market, AI ETFs were showing mixed activity, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>. First Trust Nasdaq Artificial Intelligence and Robotics ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROBT#NASDAQ">ROBT</a>) was up y 2.47%, Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NASDAQ">AIQ</a>) was up by 1.28% and iShares Global Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IXN#NYSE">IXN</a>) was up by 2.60%.

IMF Warns AI In Stock Trading Can Boost Efficiency, But Warns Of Increased Market Volatility

Wall Street wrapped up a blockbuster first half of the year. The S&amp;P 500 index gained a whopping 14.5% while the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 3.8%. The Nasdaq Composite Index emerged as an outperformer, climbing 18.1%. The ongoing artificial intelligence&nbsp;craze, rate-cut bets and strong corporate profit growth were the biggest catalysts in driving the stocks higher and will continue to do so for the rest of the year. Wall Street analysts have become more bullish on stocks, citing these as a strong combination of factors. 
In the current scenario, investors should bet on ETFs that were winners in the first half and have a solid Zacks ETF Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy). These are VanEck Vectors Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/smh#NASDAQ">SMH</a>), iShares Expanded Tech Sector ETF (ARCA:IGM), SPDR Portfolio S&amp;P 500 Growth ETF (ARCA:SPYG), iShares Russell Top 200 Growth ETF (ARCA:IWY) and Invesco AI and Next Gen Software ETF (ARCA:IGPT). 
The &quot;Magnificent Seven&quot; was the biggest engine of growth for the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq. About 60% of the gains were driven by the &quot;mega-cap&quot; tech companies &mdash; NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta Platforms&nbsp;and Apple. NVIDIA alone accounted for 31% of the market&#39;s first-half advance. With the latest surge, NVIDIA, Apple and Microsoft are in the race to become the world&#39;s most valuable company and hit a market capitalization of $4 trillion on surging enthusiasm over AI capabilities. This technology-driven momentum is expected to continue at least through the summer. 
In the latest FOMC meeting, U.S. policymakers penciled in just one rate cut for this year and projected four cuts for 2025. The Fed altered language in its statement, noting &quot;modest further progress toward the committee&#39;s 2% inflation objective.&quot; Previously, the statement pointed to a &quot;lack&quot; of further progress. Low rates reduce the cost of borrowing, which is often needed to finance the expansion of companies, thereby driving economic growth. Lower rates typically reduce the attractiveness of fixed-income investments like bonds, leading investors to seek higher returns in the equity markets. 
Second-quarter earnings are expected to be robust. Per the Zacks Earnings Trends report, second-quarter earnings for the S&amp;P 500 index will be up 8.3% from the same period last year on 4.6% higher revenues. This is the highest quarterly earnings growth pace since 9.9% growth in the first quarter of 2022 and would follow 6.7% earnings growth on 3.2% revenue gains in the first quarter of 2024. 
Further, a strong first half for the S&amp;P 500 Index historically bodes well for the rest of the year. Since the early 1950s, when the index climbed more than 10% through June, it has risen by a median of roughly 10% in the second half, per data compiled by Bloomberg. However, elevated valuations, the U.S. presidential election in November and uncertainty about the path of interest-rate cuts will weigh on stocks in the second half of this year.

U.S. auto safety regulators are investigating Alphabet Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Waymo self-driving vehicles following reports of potential traffic safety law violations.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has commenced the inquiry into around 444 Waymo vehicles, prompted by 22 incidents, including 17 collisions. 
These incidents involved the vehicles disobeying traffic safety control devices and exhibiting unexpected behavior near these devices, leading to crashes, Reuters reported.
The agency&#8217;s probe is part of a broader examination into <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/01/36527695/gms-cruise-offers-75k-settlement-to-wrap-up-regulatory-probe-into-san-francisco-av-accident">self-driving vehicle performance</a>, including General Motors Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) Cruise and Amazon.com Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/05/38785340/nhtsa-opens-probe-into-amazons-500-zoox-vehicles-over-sudden-braking-concerns">Zoox</a>.
Waymo, in response, emphasized its safety record and commitment to transparency, expressing readiness to collaborate with NHTSA.
In February, Waymo recalled 444 self-driving vehicles due to software errors leading to inaccurate predictions of towed vehicle movements, following two minor collisions in Arizona.

NHTSA emphasized that all 22 incidents either involved self-driving crashes or driving behavior potentially violating traffic laws, such as collisions with stationary objects and entering opposing lanes.
NHTSA&#8217;s investigation will focus on assessing Waymo&#8217;s 5th Generation automated driving system performance in detecting and responding to traffic control devices and avoiding collisions. 
This scrutiny marks the initial phase before potential recalls if deemed necessary for safety. Waymo has expanded its autonomous services, offering driverless robotaxi services in Los Angeles and commencing services for employees in Austin, Texas.
Despite these challenges, Waymo stated it currently provides over 50,000 weekly trips for riders in demanding environments, showcasing ongoing efforts to enhance autonomous transportation.
Alphabet stock has gained more than 45% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Communication Services Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLC#NYSE">XLC</a>) and IShares Expanded Tech Sector ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IGM#NYSE">IGM</a>).

Alphabet's Autonomous Vehicle Unit Waymo Faces Scrutiny Over Traffic Violations

As April comes to a close, it&#8217;s time to compile the rankings for the top-performing sector and industry exchange-traded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">funds of the month.</a>
Taking a broader look at the stock market, the S&amp;P 500 Index, represented by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), finished April on a downturn, declining by approximately 3%. This marks the end of a five-month streak of gains.
Similarly, the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100, tracked by the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), experienced a 3.5% decline.
Among large-cap indices, blue-chip stocks showed slight underperformance, with the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>) slipping by 4.5%.
Small-cap stocks, represented by the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>), plummeted by over 6%, marking their worst performance since October 2023.
Overall, it has been a challenging month for the stock market, primarily due to inflation surprises surpassing expectations. This has led to a recalibration of market expectations regarding potential Federal Reserve rate cuts.
Additionally, complex global geopolitical tensions have emerged, notably between Israel and Iran, alongside the ongoing issue in the Gaza Strip.
May is anticipated to start with a crucial event as investors await the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/macro-notification/24/04/38526201/is-hawkish-shift-on-inflation-imminent-wall-street-analysts-traders-brace-for-fed-impa">(FOMC) meeting on Wednesday. </a>
While no interest rate changes are expected, all eyes will be on Fed Chair Jerome Powell&#8216;s remarks to assess the Fed&#8217;s stance in response to recent inflation surprises.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Performance Of Sector ETFs In April 2024</h2>
At the sector level, only the utilities sector managed to avoid losses for the month, rising by 2.1%.
The largest stock contributors to the utilities&#8217; performance in April are NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>), The Southern Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>), Dominion Energy, Inc.

Energy stocks remained broadly stable, while the other nine S&amp;P 500&#8217;s sectors showcased losses.
Real estate experienced the worst performance, down by over 7%, dragged down by its high sensitivity to interest rates, as Treasury yields increase across the board during the month. 
Following real estate, the technology and healthcare sectors also showed poor performance in April.
