Investing in the next generation Artificial Intelligence Winner It has acquired a more comprehensive launch of a new exchange sales fund based on 30 stock picks from one of Wall Street’s top analysts.
Perhaps the first of its kind, the Ives AI Revolution ETF reflects the unique research of Dan Ives, managing director of Wedbush Securities and global head of technology research.
“In my 25 years of covering high-tech, I’ve never seen a bigger theme than the AI revolution,” Ives told Fox Business. “And we tried to investigate 30 technologies that best cover the semi-software, infrastructure and autonomous themes of this fourth industrial revolution. That’s really the start. AIRevolution ETF.”

Some of these names have been hit by trade tensions between the US and China and fears of other tariffs, but that has not changed Ive’s view.
“Taxes are in the background and continue to create uncertainty, but that doesn’t change our view that this is the fourth industrial revolution,” he added. “We’re going to be spending $2 trillion over the next three years. Now we think we’re still at the bottom of our first innings regarding this non-inning game for AI. And Tech’s second and third derivative benefits are beginning to focus on AI.”
