However, its stock has remained relatively dormant since August 2025. The stock is up about 5% since then, and there have been several other AI investments that have taken off in that same time frame. One of the best stocks to bet on since Nvidia quit rising is Micron Technology(NASDAQ: MU). In the same time frame that Nvidia rose a mere 5%, Micron's stock is up nearly 300%. With returns like that, investors may be wondering if it's still worth holding on to Nvidia or if they're better off switching to Micron. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » Micron operates in a cyclical industry Micron and Nvidia may both be associated with AI chips, but they're in completely separate parts of the market. Micron is a memory chip manufacturer, and its products are used in products ranging from smartphones to laptops to graphics processing units (GPUs) made by Nvidia. While there have been several bottlenecks in the AI build-out, memory has become one of the largest ones, and it will be some time before this demand issue is resolved. Nvidia is more of a chip designer than a producer. It designs the computing units, then outsources the components and manufacturing to several different suppliers, Micron being one of them.

In early March 2026, Flex announced that it is expanding its collaboration with AMD to manufacture the AMD Instinct MI355X AI platform at its Austin, Texas headquarters, adding U.S.-based, high-volume production of complete liquid‑cooled GPU systems to its existing advanced manufacturing footprint. This deepened AMD partnership highlights Flex’s role not just as a contract manufacturer but as a full systems integrator for complex, AI‑ready data center hardware produced onshore in the United States. We’ll now examine how this expanded U.S. manufacturing of AMD’s Instinct AI platforms could influence Flex’s broader investment narrative. Capitalize on the AI infrastructure supercycle with our selection of the converting record-breaking demand into massive cash flow. Advertisement Flex Investment Narrative Recap To own Flex, you need to believe it can turn its broad manufacturing footprint and AI data center capabilities into steadily improving margins and cash generation. The expanded AMD Instinct MI355X production in Austin reinforces the data center growth story, but it does not remove near term risks around customer concentration and structurally thin margins, which remain the key swing factors for the stock. The most relevant recent update alongside the AMD news is Flex’s fiscal 2026 outlook, where it guided revenues to US$27.2 billion to US$27.5 billion and targeted a 6 percent adjusted operating margin in fiscal 2027, a year earlier than previously planned. Together, the AMD collaboration and this guidance put more attention on whether higher value AI and data center work can offset margin pressure from cyclical and lower margin segments. Yet even as AI demand builds, investors should be aware that Flex’s reliance on a concentrated group of large cloud customers could... Flex’s narrative projects $29.1 billion revenue and $1.3 billion earnings by 2028. This requires 3.7% yearly revenue growth and roughly a $0.4 billion earnings increase from $891.0 million today....

A Silicon Valley-born AI startup is turning to Japan to prove AI can reshape one of the world’s largest industrial robot supply chains. Integral AI Inc., a five-year-old company founded by former Google researchers Jad Tarifi and Nima Asgharbeygi , develops AI models geared for automated systems such as robots and self-driving cars. The company has worked with auto parts maker Denso Corp. since 2021 to help teach industrial robots new skills by observing demonstrations. The 15-person startup is holding initial discussions with Toyota Motor Corp. , Sony Group Corp. , Honda Motor Co. , Nissan Motor Co. and Mitsui Chemicals Inc. to pitch them on how artificial intelligence can advance manufacturing processes. The next step is for a human operator to give a robot a language prompt, like “make a coffee,” and have the robot teach itself how to do so, Tarifi told Bloomberg News. Japan is home to many of the world’s biggest industrial robot makers including Fanuc Corp. and Yaskawa Electric Corp. , while SoftBank Group Corp. is buying the robotics unit of ABB Ltd. The country also hosts factory automation providers such as Mitsubishi Electric Corp. and Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd. , with Japanese companies delivering an estimated 29% of the global supply of industrial robots, according to the International Federation of Robotics . Integral has a role to play because “Japan is strong in robotics, but they’re not strong in AI and compute,” Tarifi said.

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung called for the quick launch of a cap on fuel prices as the government moves to contain a spike in energy costs triggered by escalating conflict in the Middle East. Authorities should “swiftly introduce and boldly implement the maximum fuel price system” to curb excessive price increases, Lee told officials during an emergency economic meeting Monday. Lee’s remarks came as global oil prices surged toward $120 a barrel , the highest level since 2022, amid mounting supply risks. Oil suppliers in the Middle East have lowered output, the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed, and the US has threatened to escalate a conflict that has already roiled energy markets. South Korea imports almost all of its energy supplies, with about 70% of its oil cargoes typically shipped through the vital strait. The move to impose a price cap — the first time such a measure will have been used in nearly 30 years — is part of a broader effort to stabilize domestic energy markets as geopolitical tensions disrupt supply chains. According to Korea National Oil Corp. , the average retail gasoline price at service stations was 1,895.32 won ($1.27) per liter on Sunday, up about 12% from 1,692.89 won on Feb. 28 as the US began its airstrikes on Iran. On Sunday, Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan said the government could implement the fuel price cap quickly if market conditions deteriorate. “We have almost finished preparations,” Kim told reporters after returning from a trip to the US. “We plan to monitor market conditions and respond accordingly.” The initial response will be a release from the country’s strategic oil reserves. These stand at about 100 million barrels or enough to cover more than 210 days of consumption, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resource said in December. Separately, Kim convened an emergency meeting with domestic refiners and industry groups to review local fuel prices, warning companies against exploiting the surge in global c...

Track your investments for FREE with Simply Wall St, the portfolio command center trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. Why TransUnion’s new AI agent matters for stock watchers TransUnion (TRU) has introduced its AI Analytics Orchestrator Agent, a Google Gemini powered tool within the TruIQ suite, aimed at making advanced credit analytics faster, more transparent and easier to audit. See our latest analysis for TransUnion. Despite the AI announcement, TransUnion’s share price, at US$77.38, has been under some pressure recently. It has a 30 day share price return of 5.31%, a year to date share price return of 7.14%, and a 1 year total shareholder return of 9.99%, while the 3 year total shareholder return of 30.50% points to stronger momentum over a longer horizon. If TransUnion’s AI push has caught your attention, this could be a good moment to look across the sector and check out 35 AI infrastructure stocks as potential next candidates for your watchlist. With TRU trading at US$77.38, showing a 1 year total return decline of 9.99% but a 3 year total return of 30.50%, and an intrinsic discount estimate of roughly 50%, is this a potential opportunity, or is the market already pricing in future growth? Most Popular Narrative: 18.3% Undervalued At $77.38, TransUnion sits below the most widely followed fair value estimate of $94.75. That estimate is built using a detailed cash flow narrative. With technology modernization and operational transformation investments ending in 2025, management projects free cash flow conversion to rise significantly (from 70% in 2025 to 90%+ in 2026). This is expected to provide a catalyst for future shareholder returns through buybacks, acquisitions, or reinvestment, and to support a step-change in long-term earnings growth. Read the complete narrative. Curious how higher cash conversion, revenue growth expectations and a richer profit margin profile all feed into that $94.75 figure and discount rate assumptions?
