0:23
is WSJ's Take on the Week, the
0:25
show where we give you a leg
0:27
up on the world of money and
0:29
investing. That's the stuff that we think
0:31
and talk about every day here at
0:33
the Wall Street Journal. And every week,
0:35
we're going to bring you into those
0:37
conversations. They're going to be with insiders.
0:39
They're going to be about markets, economy,
0:41
and finance. And for today's show, we're
0:43
going to dive into big tech stocks
0:45
and artificial intelligence, and of course, what's
0:47
been the slashiest event of earning earning
0:50
season of earning season season of earning
0:52
season in just a few days. We
0:54
chatted with a really big AI bowl,
0:57
Dom Rizzo. He's a tech portfolio manager
0:59
at Tiro Price, and he shared with
1:01
us, why he thinks AI is the
1:03
biggest. productivity enhancer since electricity. Electricity, that's
1:06
a big one, I use that. I'd
1:08
say so, and which companies specifically he thinks
1:10
could be some of AI's unexpected winners. You're
1:12
going to hear that conversation in just a
1:14
few minutes. Before that though, let's get to
1:17
what's been happening in the news and in
1:19
markets. There's been a ton going on with
1:21
crypto and we have some upcoming earnings
1:23
from Target and Walmart. But
1:27
first, we're about two weeks post the
1:29
US presidential election, and the Trump trade
1:31
still seems to be on everyone's minds.
1:33
Tell us, what do you think? Do you think
1:35
it's already losing steam? Well, first let's break
1:37
down. What is the Trump trade? The Trump
1:40
trade really comes down to two big macro
1:42
moves, and that's stock prices are up,
1:44
and bond yields are up. So let's talk
1:46
about bonds. Yields on tenure treasuries are still
1:48
much higher than they were three months ago.
1:50
Three months ago they were under 4%. Now
1:52
they're flirting with 4.5%. There was a surge
1:54
on November 6th. That didn't quite continue. They've
1:57
been a little up and down from there,
1:59
but they're still up. And why are treasuries
2:01
part of this Trump trade? Well, on the
2:03
good side, because faster economic growth generally means
2:05
the Fed is going to have to raise
2:07
rates in the long term. But on the
2:09
bad side, people are worried about how tax
2:12
cuts, Trump promised a lot of cuts, how
2:14
those things might impact the deficit, and a
2:16
wider deficit means the government is just going
2:18
to have to keep selling more and more
2:20
treasuries, supply and demand, those yields go up.
2:23
So, Gunjan, tell me about what's been
2:25
happening with the stock market with the
2:27
stock market. You know, it's so interesting.
2:29
Throughout the week, the biggest question investors
2:31
posed to me over the phone was,
2:33
when will the volatility that we're seeing
2:35
in treasuries in the bond market? When
2:37
and if will that start to stir
2:39
volatility in the stock market, right? Because...
2:41
Of course, everything's connected. It is, and
2:43
investors are constantly making this calculation of,
2:45
should I put my money in super
2:47
safe treasuries in government bonds, or do
2:49
I take a riskier bet and put
2:51
it into the stock market? You get
2:53
paid a lot to owe. Right, so
2:55
there's this ongoing trade-off there, but at
2:57
the same time, so far at least,
2:59
those higher yields have not caused anyone
3:01
to panic. But I do think it's
3:03
something a lot of people are keeping
3:06
an eye on. And those higher yields
3:08
also haven't dampened a lot of the
3:10
euphoria out there in markets. You know,
3:12
I think things have been a little
3:14
bit more range bound in recent sessions
3:16
and maybe even taking lower as opposed
3:18
to right after the election where you
3:20
saw this crazy move up. What I'm
3:22
seeing in positioning data, what I'm hearing
3:24
from investors, is they are still kind
3:26
of positioning for this year-end melt-up and
3:28
for this rally to continue. Melt-up. Melt-up.
3:30
Melt-up. I've heard of melt-downs. Melt-ups. Could
3:32
be exciting. And you know, my favorite
3:34
indicator of stock market euphoria has been
3:36
flashing bright green. Tell us, guess what
3:38
it is. Gungen knowing you, it's got
3:40
to be something in the world of
3:42
options, right? It's got to be... You
3:44
make me sound like such a nerd.
3:46
Well, in the very best way, Gungen,
3:49
you are a huge nerd. So tell
3:51
me, it's got to be something related
3:53
to that, right? It's tight options, but
3:55
also a stock. Guess which stock? Well,
3:57
if it's options on a stock, let's
3:59
see. No, Invidia is reporting this week.
4:01
That's a big options name, right? It's
4:03
close. Invidia is the new Tesla, a
4:05
lot of people say, and Tesla Call
4:07
Options are my absolute favorite market indicator
4:09
of how bullish or bearish people are
4:11
at any given moment. And what we've
4:13
seen is activity in this market has
4:15
totally exploded since the election. People are
4:17
piling into these trades, betting that Tesla's
4:19
rally is going to keep going. The
4:21
stock is going to keep rising after
4:23
it hit. the $1 trillion mark, or
4:25
at least its market cap, crossed the
4:27
$1 trillion mark recently. There is one
4:30
big caveat here, of course, and that
4:32
is that investors might be getting ahead
4:34
of themselves in terms of what the
4:36
Trump trade even is. Well, it sounds
4:38
like they've cut the brakes on the
4:40
electric car of the stock market in
4:42
what you're saying, so I'm not surprised
4:44
to hear that. People are pricing in
4:46
all the good stuff, none of the
4:48
potentially bad stuff. For example, threats of
4:50
tariffs really weighed on stocks at times
4:52
during Trump's last administration. And James McIntosh
4:54
at the Journal had a great column
4:56
on this recently, where he pointed out
4:58
that some of the Trump trades after
5:00
the 2016 election quickly faded. Well, I
5:02
take James's point, and he's always worth
5:04
reading on topics like that. But I
5:06
do want to talk about one thing
5:08
that looks like there's just unabated... Bullishness
5:10
and that's crypto that has surged after
5:13
the election digital assets are off the
5:15
charts right now. It's been crazy. Bitcoin
5:17
prices hit $90,000 for the first time
5:19
last week. Doge coin has doubled in
5:21
the rally accelerated after Trump announced that
5:23
Vivak Ramoswami and Elon Musk would lead
5:25
his listen carefully department of government efficiency.
5:27
Doge Is everything a meme now? Seriously,
5:29
is everything a meme now? Well, some
5:31
stocks are memes. Coyne-based shares at one
5:33
point were up more than 50% in
5:35
November and micro strategy. The tech company
5:37
that owns a lot of Bitcoin, they
5:39
were up more than the third so
5:41
far this month. The last time I
5:43
looked at it. So yes, those are
5:45
memes too. I know, and I think
5:47
people are betting it's going to continue.
5:49
They've clearly got the stage. The question
5:51
is, what are they going to want
5:53
from it? I'm going to be watching.
5:56
that very closely. It's a good time
5:58
to be a crypto bro. Well we
6:00
should and we'll chat way more about
6:02
this in a future episode. Gunjan we
6:04
just relaunched the show we can't just
6:06
keep promising people episodes about stuff we're
6:08
still getting the hang of it. Well
6:10
we want people to come back and
6:12
listen don't we? Yes we certainly do.
6:14
But I think perhaps it seemed like
6:16
the big issue for the election even
6:18
more so than crypto really was the
6:20
economy and how people felt about the
6:22
economy that really seemed to push voters...
6:24
toward Trump who was making a huge
6:26
case that he was going to bring
6:28
inflation down, he was going to you
6:30
know bring jobs back to America, boost
6:32
manufacturing here, and in terms of inflation
6:34
I keep wondering are we done talking
6:37
about it because Every day Americans are
6:39
still very concerned about it, but I
6:41
wonder how much investors are paying attention
6:43
to it now. What do you think?
6:45
Well, we flagged Target and Walmart's earnings,
6:47
and here's why. I think they'll be
6:49
interesting for a couple of reasons. One
6:51
is I think people will be listening
6:53
to those calls like they have started
6:55
to listen to many calls for any
6:57
comments about the impact of tariffs. Tariffs
6:59
will impact the supply chains potentially for
7:01
people who sell you stuff in stores.
7:03
Will they make any comments about their...
7:05
margins or pricing. Target and Walmart have
7:07
both been lowering prices on a lot
7:09
of stuff lately. So one way the
7:11
inflation story could continue to be part
7:13
of the conversation is if tariffs start
7:15
to bleed into the prices of things
7:17
that you might buy at a Walmart
7:20
or a target. It's just so tough
7:22
to see how that's going to shake
7:24
out, right? I don't know. I feel
7:26
like a lot of stock investors were
7:28
really caught off guard by the tariffs
7:30
and President Trump's last term where his
7:32
tweets on tariffs would drive these huge
7:34
moves in the stock market. to prepare
7:36
for. But there's also just the consumer
7:38
mood and I think that's going to
7:40
be really interesting to watch in terms
7:42
of Walmart and targets earnings. I know
7:44
lately I've been splurging a little less
7:46
the past two years I was kind
7:48
of on a travel spree after the
7:50
pandemic and and it's been coming down
7:52
for me. I'm taking a closer look
7:54
at how much some of these hotels
7:56
cost. Well you're not alone in that
7:58
and if you look at indicators and
8:00
things generally related to people doing that
8:03
like really big time Travel luxury spending
8:05
some of those things have been slowing
8:07
right? We've been looking at American Express
8:09
as results and their spending volume growth
8:11
has slowed a little bit and that's
8:13
one place of course people look for
8:15
spending on Travel, but I think that
8:17
because the consumer is overall still pretty
8:19
strong, they have lots of money in
8:21
their checkbook, they have a job, their
8:23
wage growth has often outpaced inflation, the
8:25
question is whether or not people are
8:27
going to be spending a little bit
8:29
more on things it might be travel,
8:31
but might still be things they don't
8:33
absolutely need. I don't know about you,
8:35
but I'm a big, like, knock-off fire,
8:37
like I will buy, like, the Walgreens
8:39
brand. Anyway, the biggest thing, of course,
8:41
we have coming this week is in
8:43
video earnings and we talk to Dom
8:46
Rizzo, who's a tech portfolio manager at
8:48
Tyro Price, about the chipmaker, AI investment,
8:50
and tech stocks. We're going to get
8:52
to that after the break. Cyber
8:57
Resiliency is becoming an enterprise-wide priority
8:59
for many companies. On this episode
9:01
of Tech Fluential, Deloitte's Lou di
9:04
Lorenzo talks with Rohan Amin, Chief
9:06
Product Officer at Chase, and Jamil
9:08
Farshi, Executive Vice President, Chief Information
9:11
Security Officer, and Chief Information Security
9:13
Officer, and Chief Technology Officer at
9:15
Equifax. Together, they reframe the conversation
9:18
on resiliency and risk management as
9:20
a catalyst for innovation in long-term
9:23
growth, where technology and influence converge.
9:25
New opportunities can converge. So
9:33
tell us, invidia reports earnings later
9:35
this week and before the presidential
9:37
election was really the theme that
9:39
dominated the market for more than
9:41
a year. And the champion of
9:43
that trade was invidia. You know,
9:45
they sell the specialized chips that
9:48
power all of these complex computations
9:50
needed to realize AI. As of
9:52
November, and video was worth more
9:54
than $3.6 trillion making it the
9:56
most valuable company on planet Earth.
9:58
Yeah, that is an absolutely wild
10:00
number to me. I mean, just
10:02
for context, that is three Berkshire
10:04
Hathways, which is itself a pretty
10:06
big company, right? But Gungenai, am
10:08
I right to also say that
10:10
there's some skepticism about the AI
10:12
boom that's been kind of setting
10:15
in in the market this fall,
10:17
right? You follow volatility in the
10:19
market so closely, and it seemed
10:21
like it was really on display
10:23
in the aftermath of the earnings
10:25
reports of a couple of those
10:27
big tech companies that have invested
10:29
heavily, and I mean heavily, like
10:31
to the tune of tens of
10:33
billions of dollars heavily, in AI
10:35
products. And that's, for example, Microsoft
10:37
and Meta platforms, right? Meadow being
10:39
the parent company of Facebook, Instagram,
10:41
etc. Those both fell sharply after
10:44
their earnings. But then again, they've
10:46
bounced back since, so maybe I'm
10:48
just kind of going on about
10:50
nothing. My reporting suggests that you
10:52
are picking up on something real.
10:54
Like I sense some weariness when
10:56
I talk to investors about the
10:58
AI trade. At the same time,
11:00
I think a lot of people
11:02
are almost afraid to bet against
11:04
it. But we have the perfect
11:06
person here to help us unpack.
11:08
All of this, Dom Rizzo is
11:10
a portfolio manager at Tiro Price
11:13
and he manages a fund with
11:15
all of the big tech names,
11:17
including Invidia, which is his number
11:19
one largest holding. Dom, thank you
11:21
so much for joining us today.
11:23
Thanks for having me, guys. So
11:25
there's a lot to talk about
11:27
here with individual stocks, valuations, and
11:29
all that, but let's zoom out
11:31
a little bit. Last time you
11:33
and I chatted chatted around a
11:35
month ago, you seemed pretty bullish
11:37
on AI. Tell us why? Look,
11:39
I think AI has the potential
11:42
to be the biggest productivity enhancer
11:44
for the global economy since electricity.
11:46
And what do I mean when
11:48
I say that? Right? Well, if
11:50
you take a step back and
11:52
you look at what electricity did
11:54
to the global economy, it added
11:56
roughly 1% a year of GDP
11:58
for 32 years. The question
12:00
is, can AI beat that? And
12:02
I think the answer is yes.
12:05
We're starting to see productivity enhancing
12:07
elements to companies already. We're starting
12:09
to see it in earnings reports.
12:11
And just look at what the
12:13
MAG-7 are spending on CAPX. They
12:15
clearly believe it also. This is
12:17
existential for them to win. So
12:19
I think this AI boom can
12:21
continue from here. So you mentioned
12:23
those investments. I mean, we are
12:25
talking very serious numbers here, right?
12:27
Microsoft has spent $53 billion this
12:29
year through the third quarter. That's
12:31
about 28% of their revenue over
12:33
that time frame. Alphabet's CAPX was
12:36
up 62% in the third quarter
12:38
over the same time last year.
12:40
So these numbers are big and
12:42
growing. But for all that, you
12:44
know, kind of call it AI
12:46
power grid that's being built here,
12:48
some of the big society-changing things
12:50
that we've been talking about with
12:52
AI, like four-day work weeks because
12:54
you can get everything. done much
12:56
faster with chat GBT. You know,
12:58
hyper intelligent robots that drive your
13:00
car and do your housework. Heck,
13:02
even just like a decent customer
13:04
service bot, those things still seem
13:07
far away. So when will all
13:09
this AI investment turn into equally
13:11
huge revenue generating products? Yeah, well.
13:13
That's the nature of seismic change,
13:15
right? We always overestimate what it
13:17
can do on a one-year basis
13:19
and then underestimate what it impacts
13:21
society on a ten-year basis. Because
13:23
it just takes time to go
13:25
put in AI native applications. In
13:27
order to have AI be the
13:29
biggest productivity enhancer for the global
13:31
economy since electricity, you really need
13:33
to believe in a world of
13:35
AI agents, right, versus just copilots.
13:38
And just to give everyone a
13:40
quick definition. Co-pilots, humans are in
13:42
the loop. AI agents, humans are
13:44
not in the loop. And so
13:46
you're directing those agents to go
13:48
do things on your behalf. Take
13:50
a company like T-route, you could
13:52
have thousands of digital employees doing
13:54
things upon your behalf. But these
13:56
numbers, like you said, are monstrous,
13:58
right? Let's just put them in
14:00
perspective. Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, 2023
14:02
spent $154 billion of CAPX. But
14:04
as an investor, so you own
14:06
all of these stocks or a
14:09
lot of these tech stocks, how
14:11
many more quarters or years of
14:13
spending are you willing to withstand
14:15
before you kind of throw in
14:17
the talent say, hey, it's too
14:19
much? Well, I think we're starting
14:21
to see the revenue growth come
14:23
through. And this is something that
14:25
I think people probably underestimate because
14:27
it's hard to point to specifics,
14:29
but I'll give you some anecdotes
14:31
and maybe that can satisfy a
14:33
little bit of what people are
14:35
looking for. So if we go
14:37
back a year and we said,
14:40
hey, what do most people think
14:42
meta is going to grow in
14:44
Q4 of 2024, that number was
14:46
in the low to mid single
14:48
digits, right? We just got their
14:50
guidance a few weeks ago. And
14:52
that number, according to them, is
14:54
going to be anywhere from 12
14:56
to 20 percent growth, meta historically
14:58
a conservative guider. It wouldn't surprise
15:00
me if we were at the
15:02
upper end of that range. Let's
15:04
look at Microsoft, right? Let's look
15:06
at Azure growth. AI for their
15:08
entire business is their fastest business
15:11
ever to $10 billion of ARR
15:13
annual recurring revenue. It just happened
15:15
in two years. Moreover, Azure itself
15:17
with AI is growing 33 percent.
15:19
without AI is only growing 21%.
15:21
And then there's a plethora of
15:23
companies that have reported so far
15:25
this quarter, Service Now, Hubspop, At
15:27
Loving, just to name a few,
15:29
that specifically called out AI as
15:31
driving accelerating revenue growth. So it
15:33
sounds like what you're saying is
15:35
that we don't need necessarily to
15:37
get to, you know, total revolution
15:39
in life to have success in
15:41
these investments. I see what you're
15:44
saying there. Frankly, that kind of
15:46
appeals, right? It's like an AI
15:48
trade that maybe isn't as exciting
15:50
as some people might hope, but
15:52
like it's maybe kind of a
15:54
boring and maybe in some ways
15:56
less risky AI trade, right? And
15:58
that sort of appeals. to me
16:00
that there are kind of products
16:02
coming out now that are going
16:04
to be successes enough to justify
16:06
that spending. And they're making money.
16:08
They're making money right now. And
16:10
that's the big difference between now
16:12
and the internet. If we think
16:15
about comparing contrast, 1999 versus today.
16:17
Well, number one, a lot of
16:19
the 1999 and 2005 rebuild out
16:21
was built with debt, right? Build
16:23
it and they will come. On
16:25
the other hand, today, this is
16:27
funded by the cash flows of
16:29
the most profitable companies in history,
16:31
right? So very different setup, just
16:33
from a capital markets perspective. Invidia
16:35
is a really good example of
16:37
that. And, you know, that brings
16:39
me to my next question, which
16:41
is we have this really big
16:43
earnings report coming up. A lot
16:46
of these other companies are spending
16:48
on invidious chips. Is this the
16:50
one report that really matters? earnings
16:52
is always a blockbuster event to
16:54
keep the 90s analogies going right
16:56
but I don't know if we've
16:58
seen the stock move too much
17:00
into the print to see how
17:02
it will react but we just
17:04
saw what Jensen said a few
17:06
weeks ago that Blackwell Demand is
17:08
absolutely insane right now that's Jensen
17:10
Huang he's CEO of Envideo and
17:12
Blackwell is a signature product for
17:14
Envideo right now. Yes, the signature
17:17
new product, right? And that doesn't
17:19
surprise me because the benefits of
17:21
investing in the new chips are
17:23
just so beneficial when you compare
17:25
it to the old chips until
17:27
terms of training the next new
17:29
model, right? And there's training spend
17:31
and there's inference spend. And the
17:33
training spend is what really requires
17:35
the most leading edge bleeding edge
17:37
technology. So we'll see what ends
17:39
up happening on the print. But
17:41
if you take a 18 to
17:43
24 month view, which is what
17:45
I try to do in my
17:48
strategy. I don't see this AI
17:50
CAPX spend slowing. Well, actually, mathematically,
17:52
it has to slow. I don't
17:54
think it stops any time soon.
17:56
You can't spend at these. growth
17:58
rates forever, you have to decelerate.
18:00
But I think that we can
18:02
see very high orders of magnitude
18:04
as we go from an AI
18:06
chip market of $45 billion in
18:08
2023 to $400 billion by 2027
18:10
and $500 billion by 2028. Are
18:12
there companies out there that you
18:14
think of as attractive AI plays,
18:16
but that investors right now don't
18:19
think of as AI plays? I'm
18:21
thinking of, say, retailers or banks?
18:23
Yeah, banker told me the other
18:25
day that that's the biggest thing
18:27
that they're looking at in their
18:29
business over the next couple of
18:31
years. Well, I think it's going
18:33
to just be part of every
18:35
single business. Right? It's like saying
18:37
the having an app or an
18:39
internet web page is a differentiator.
18:41
I actually don't know if it's
18:43
going to be a differentiator for
18:45
normal companies over time. I think
18:47
the question is, is AI a
18:50
sustaining innovation? Does it make the
18:52
big company stronger? or is it
18:54
a disruptive innovation, right? Do smaller
18:56
companies with lower cost structures and
18:58
different ways of doing business? Are
19:00
they able to enter the market
19:02
and be able to take a
19:04
lot of share from the traditional
19:06
companies? So you think other stocks
19:08
could kind of power some sort
19:10
of an echo boom or second
19:12
wave for this whole AI trade?
19:14
I think it has to in
19:16
order for the AI wave to
19:18
continue, right? You need the revenue
19:21
growth acceleration for the rest of
19:23
the market in order to happen.
19:25
You can't just rely on a
19:27
CAPX cycle forever, but I think
19:29
there's plenty of innovations and applications
19:31
turning up that will justify the
19:33
continued spend beyond just the Max
19:35
7. Well, let's get back to
19:37
the... elephant in the AI room
19:39
and really in every room in
19:41
every conversation now and that is
19:43
the Republican victory. So what do
19:45
we think might be on President
19:47
Trump's potential agenda, Dom, that could
19:49
really impact AI supply, demand in
19:52
a positive or negative way? What
19:54
does that mean for the overall
19:56
economy? That probably means a few
19:58
things. Lower taxes and deregulation for
20:00
businesses, but it also means tariffs
20:02
on products. coming in from outside
20:04
the US, right? And if you
20:06
think about all these different business
20:08
leaders all around the world, they
20:10
didn't know where they were gonna
20:12
go build that next new factory,
20:14
right? Do we build it in
20:16
Vietnam? Do we build it in
20:18
China? Do we build it in
20:20
India? Or do we build it
20:23
in the US? I think the
20:25
answer is very clearly and robustly
20:27
now is probably in the US
20:29
going forward. Now with regards to
20:31
AI specifically, like I think that
20:33
we have animal spirits in terms
20:35
of. CapX build-outs, I think that's
20:37
going to probably mean more power
20:39
build-out in the US, which you
20:41
need for AI to continue. You
20:43
mean like power, like electricity, like
20:45
electricity, physical electricity, right? Like AI
20:47
has the potential to be the
20:49
biggest productivity enhancement for the global
20:51
economy since electricity. As long as
20:54
we have enough electricity. All right,
20:56
when we come back, we are
20:58
going to ask Dom, which tech
21:00
company he's the most bullish on?
21:02
committed to exploring the world in
21:04
comfort. Journey through the heart of
21:06
Europe on an elegant Viking longship
21:08
with thoughtful service, destination-focused dining, and
21:10
cultural enrichment on board and on
21:12
shore. And every Viking voyage is
21:14
all-inclusive with no children and no
21:16
casinos. Discover more at Viking.com. So
21:24
Dom, what is in your view
21:26
the most ambitious way to play
21:28
AI right now? And what is
21:30
the safest way to play it?
21:32
Yeah, that's a really interesting question.
21:34
When I look at my strategy,
21:36
you know, I have a few
21:38
names that if AI really hits
21:40
in a big way. there could
21:42
see fabulous revenue growth from that
21:44
potential. And a name that comes
21:46
to mind in that, in that
21:48
scenario, would be an AMD, right?
21:51
I think they have a real
21:53
potential to be a second source
21:55
to invidia in the data center
21:57
for the companies that need true
21:59
general purpose, compute. In terms of
22:01
where AI is going to improve
22:03
the business model, And it feels
22:05
more marginal, but it's clearly direct
22:07
AI. I would highlight the electronic
22:09
design automation software companies, the EDA
22:11
software companies, Synopsis and Cadence. These
22:13
two companies design all of the
22:15
software that all of the chips
22:18
in the world are designed on
22:20
today. And not only is AI
22:22
supercharging their business with the hyperscalers,
22:24
right? Amazon, meta, Google, all designing
22:26
their own chips with these two
22:28
companies. But they're also making the
22:30
design process more efficient by putting
22:32
AI into the software itself. So
22:34
the ability to materially, materially increase
22:36
the potential chip outcomes. And as
22:38
a result, their core businesses should
22:40
be accelerated from that too. Wow,
22:42
so if chips are the picks
22:44
and shovels of AI, then these
22:47
are the. These are the pick
22:49
and shovel makers for the pick
22:51
and shovel makers. I like that.
22:53
Exactly. Well, Dom, you've given us
22:55
a lot more than seven names
22:57
to think about when it comes
22:59
to AI. Thanks so much for
23:01
joining us. Thanks for the time,
23:03
guys. Thanks, Dom. This has been
23:05
great. Dom manages a fund that
23:07
includes holdings of AMD, AppLoven, Hub
23:09
Spot, ServiceNow, Synopsis, Cadence, and many
23:11
other technology companies. Well, and that's
23:14
everything you need to know for
23:16

Well, we haven't even talked about crypto
23:48
yet. This is not that long of
23:50
a show. Don't even go there. Don't
23:52
even go there. Don't even go there.
23:54
The only crypto is going to be
23:57
a really big thing. ADP
24:01
imagines a world of work where smart machines become
24:03
too smart. Copier, I a world
24:05
of work where smart machines
24:07
become too smart. the way,
24:09
I need 15 copies of
24:11
this. a word Janet. Yeah, I know. Page
24:13
the way, of, or not
24:15
a word, Janet. of. Yeah,
24:17
I know. print Page If it
24:19
be a word, or irrespective of.
24:21
Just print them, please. If
24:24
it were a word, Janet, it would
24:26
mean to silent is... Copier! Switch
24:28
to silent mode. Let's Let's put a pin
24:30
in it. Anything can change the world of
24:32
work. From HR to to ADP helps businesses
