EquitySet CEO Tony Zipparro sits down with Brad Smith to discuss investing in the tech sector amid recent volatility and expected rate cuts, providing his take on which stocks are the best artificial intelligence (AI) plays. “If you dive into a sector like technology, it has been extremely popular [and] has had phenomenal returns over the last couple of years,” Zipparro says, adding that he likes to “narrow in” for a “more diversified approach" when investing in tech. For those wanting to invest in the semiconductor space, Zipparro says, “Don't go directly” on Nvidia (NVDA). “bide some time on Nvidia,” as it “could have massive price appreciation” or “massive price depreciation," nodding to recent volatility in the chipmaker's stock. “If you're looking at a hold...choose somebody in the middle like a Microsoft (MSFT),” given its strong fundamentals and ties to ChatGPT-maker OpenAI. “In terms of a buy, go upstream if you want to be in technology and semis” and “pick ones that supply Intel, Nvidia,” and other chipmakers, Zipparro tells the Wealth! team, naming Applied Materials (AMAT) and Lam Research (LRCX). Chip component companies will share in AI chipmakers' gains while being “less in the limelight if things go bad,” Zipparro says.
