If you are a regular reader of my articles you are aware that I track the performances of 6 AI categories on a weekly basis and have just had my 2023 summary articles published on TalkMarkets. If you have not been doing so, below are links to those categories as tracked in munKNEE’s AI indexes. 5 of them were up ranging between 167.0% and 29% over the course of 2023 while one was down almost 4%.
- Most investors focus on the mega/large cap AI stocks that often trade for hundreds of dollars per share but there are a number of less expensive, and potentially more explosive, micro/small cap AI stocks that warrant investors’ attention. Most such stocks trade for less than $10/share giving the investor wider exposure to that growth with less money invested.
- The Micro/Small Cap AI Stocks Index tracks the stock prices and news of the 8 best performing micro- and small-cap AI stocks.

- Research indicates that the AI-enabled personal computers sector is set to rise at a compound annual growth rate of 64% between now and 2027 and make up around 60% of all PCs shipped that year. This should result in a surge in sales creating compelling opportunities in PC stocks.
