The artificial intelligence (AI) market has grown like a weed over the past decade. That rapid expansion -- which was fueled by more sophisticated cloud computing services, large language models, and generative AI applications -- lit a blazing fire under some high-growth tech stocks.
Shares of major semiconductor stocks Broadcom (AVGO 2.95%), Advanced Micro Devices (AMD 3.87%), and Arm Holdings (ARM 5.32%) rallied on Tuesday, rising 3%, 3.9%, and 5.3%, respectively.
Elementis plc (LSE:ELM) shares jumped 10% as it completed the sale of its talc business and said it will give most of the proceeds to investors in the form of a share buyback. The soapstone business has been sold to Italy's IMI Fabi for net cash proceeds after transaction costs of roughly $55 million, or almost £41 million.
It has been just over a year-and-a-half since Arm Holdings (ARM -0.34%) made its stock market debut on the Nasdaq exchange in September 2023, and anyone who bought shares of the British technology company during its initial public offering (IPO) is sitting on tremendous gains of 159% as of this writing.
It may not be a stretch to call artificial intelligence (AI) this generation's most significant growth opportunity. Just think briefly about how much the world has changed since ChatGPT became a thing, and that was just at the end of 2022.
U.K. chip designer Arm is making an aggressive move into the personal computer (PC) market long dominated by Intel, as the rise of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered personal computing reshapes the industry and opens new opportunities for the company.
There's no denying artificial intelligence (AI) technology has made enormous strides in just the past few years. But the businesses advancing it have still only scratched the surface of the underlying opportunity.
