After weeks of heavy selling in artificial intelligence and semiconductor stocks, UBS believes the sharp momentum unwind could be approaching its final stages, potentially opening the door for investors to gradually rebuild positions in the sector. The bank's trading desk said hedge funds have already made one of the largest reductions in momentum and semiconductor exposure on record, suggesting much of the forced selling may already be behind the market.
Broadcom AVGO stock rose 2% on Monday after Morgan Stanley reiterated its overweight rating on the semiconductor company and Nvidia, highlighting both stocks as preferred ways to gain exposure to the artificial intelligence infrastructure buildout. The brokerage said memory-related opportunities were improving but maintained that Nvidia and Broadcom continue to offer the most attractive risk-reward profile within its semiconductor coverage universe.
Morgan Stanley has identified seven semiconductor and AI infrastructure stocks as attractive buying opportunities following the recent selloff in memory-related equities.
Shares of Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD | AMD Price Prediction) were down 5% Friday morning to $477.81, leading a selloff across semiconductor stocks.
Few companies have ridden the artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure boom as successfully as Broadcom NASDAQ: AVGO. The tech giant has been a go-to name for investors looking to play the buildout of AI data centers, and its shares are up around 40% over the past year as a result.
