Idea for next week.

The Nasdaq has blasted higher over the past two years, gaining more than 43% last year and now heading for an increase of more than 33% for 2024. This is thanks to the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, as five of the benchmark's most heavily weighted stocks and several others in the top 10 operate in this high-growth area. Today's $200 billion AI market is forecast to reach more than $1 trillion by the end of the decade, meaning companies that got involved in this technology early could greatly benefit in the years to come.
