MS-5.20%
MSFT1.73%
AMZN-1.07%
According to Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, on July 15, the firm's Chief Investment Officer Lisa Charlotte recommended taking profits in semiconductor stocks that have already risen significantly, citing signs that the artificial intelligence investment cycle is entering maturity. She noted that as the industry shifts focus from maximum performance to cost efficiency and power consumption reduction, leadership may shift from semiconductor companies to hyperscale cloud providers like Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet. Charlotte highlighted that semiconductor stocks now represent approximately 18% of the S&P 500 index, far exceeding their long-term average of around 3%, while hyperscalers face concerns over massive capital expenditures. Morgan Stanley suggested selective purchases among hyperscalers adapting to cost-efficient AI environments while maintaining profit-taking in semiconductor positions with elevated expectations.
