📋 Investment Points Summary
- Deepening AI-led Market: The benefits of AI are rapidly expanding beyond core chip manufacturers like Nvidia and AMD to related infrastructure, software, and security companies. It is time to review the proportion of AI-related stocks in portfolios.
- Continued Sectoral Differentiation: Rather than a broad market rally, capital is clearly concentrating on sectors and stocks with clear momentum. In the biotech sector, individual companies' clinical trial results or M&A issues have an absolute impact on stock prices, more so than overall investor sentiment.
- Performance-based Stock Selection: Even within the electric vehicle sector, companies demonstrating tangible results such as actual sales and deliveries are gaining market trust. A selective approach to companies that prove themselves with numbers, beyond mere expectations, is effective.
