Keep An Eye On These 5 Small-Cap AI Companies

AI stock to watch

Over Memorial Day weekend, one of the hot topics sparking conversation, the difference in opinions and debate would have been Artificial Intelligence (AI). In that regard, it resembles the Bitcoin craze in 2017 and 2018. It was during that time that the price of Bitcoin began to surge and, in doing so, grabbed mainstream headlines and the imagination of millions of people around the globe.

Last week shared many similarities with that phase in the cryptocurrency’s timeline, with the topic of AI featuring on many popular news channels and networks. The excitement grew larger as NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) reported blowout earnings and guidance, which sparked significant gains for the semiconductor sector and many individual AI small-cap companies.

It is no longer a question of whether AI will innovate, disrupt, and revolutionize specific industries and sectors but rather of matter of when. With the wave of new AI applications growing and the adoption of the technology in full force, it might be worthwhile to build a list of speculative small-cap AI companies at the forefront of this new technology.
