AI boom creates investment opportunities beyond big tech, Perpetual says
- AI investment is driving growth beyond big tech into traditional industrial suppliers, according to Barrow Hanley portfolio manager David Ganucheau.
- Robotics and industrial automation suppliers offer opportunities where potential growth is not yet reflected in valuations.
- Ganucheau is buying Aptiv at seven times earnings, citing its robotics potential.
- Concentration in seven to 10 large companies raises portfolio diversification risks; highly valued growth stocks remain vulnerable to higher rates or slower growth.
- Growth stocks fell 30% in 2022, compared with single-digit declines for value stocks.
