Most AI & related (AI&R) stocks trade for hundreds of dollars per share yet there are a number of less expensive micro/small cap AI&R stocks (i.e., stocks with market capitalizations above $50M but less than $2B) flying under the radar that warrant your consideration. As you will see below, 80% of the constituents in our Index trade for under $5/share (officially referred to as “penny” stocks) and, as such, provide wider exposure to the sector with less money invested. The index (see below) has shown considerable weakness since the end of July but remains UP 100.8% YTD.
