Why AI is "Eating" Software Stocks (And Why We Are Looking for Deals)
While investors have been piling into Nvidia and AI infrastructure, the narrative for Enterprise SaaS has shifted to "all-out destruction." The fear? That AI will disrupt legacy software. The reality? A circular reasoning trap that has crushed valuations and created potential opportunities for patient investors.<br>In this episode, we analyze the current state of the software market, using Adobe (ADBE) and Monday.com (MNDY) as prime examples. We discuss why the "R&D Holiday" of the 2010s is officially over, why profit margins are compressing as companies spend heavily to integrate AI, and why Adobe’s recent $1.9B acquisition of SEMrush signals a new phase of competition.<br>We also break down why—despite the doom and gloom—revenue growth remains consistent and why this sector sell-off might be the time to start "bottom feeding."<br>Join us on Discord with Semiconductor Insider, sign up on our website: www.chipstockinvestor.com/membership<br>Supercharge your analysis with AI!

Google Stock: The Real Reason It’s Doubled (It’s Not Just AI)
The media narrative on Google (Alphabet) has flip-flopped again. Suddenly, Google TPUs are "killing" Nvidia, Gemini 3 is here, and the stock is soaring. But is AI dominance really the reason Google stock has doubled since April?<br>In this episode, we dig past the headlines to uncover the real catalyst behind Google’s recent stock performance—and it has less to do with the TPU vs. GPU debate and more to do with the clearing fog around major antitrust cases regarding Chrome and Android.<br>We also break down Alphabet’s massive $56B R&D spend, their aggressive AI data center CapEx, and why their impressive per-share profit growth makes them a potential "soft hedge" against Nvidia in your semiconductor portfolio. Plus, we touch on why Broadcom remains a key beneficiary of Google’s custom silicon build-out.<br>#GoogleStock #Alphabet #Nvidia #TPU #SemiConductors #ChipStockInvestor #AI #Antitrust #Broadcom<br>Join us on Discord with Semiconductor Insider, sign up on our website: www.chipstockinvestor.com/membership<br>Supercharge your analysis with AI!
