“There’s a biggest wealth transfer of our generation happening as we speak. And you know, Gen Z, you know, Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X kind of, you know, the younger traders are, this is where they’re allocating their funds to. And, you know, retail has definitely spoken, and institutions have definitely spoken, and they’re looking for that, that fourth industrial revolution allocation.”

“So chatbot AI is, you know, kind of version one. Quantum is taking everything to the next level. So you need quantum in order for it to be efficient. You need to process that data quickly. It will help, you know, essentially health care, cryptography, aerospace and defense, you know, blockchain technology.

Talking about Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) and its latest results during a program on Schwab Network, The Futurum Group’s chief market strategist Cory Johnson talked about an AI offering of the database company and said it beat AWS and Microsoft in this domain:
“Oracle is going to offer 30,000 Nvidia Blackwell chips—131,072 in total—to customers who use their infrastructure of service, their cloud services. This will allow them to have supercomputing performance through Oracle Corp (NYSE:ORCL). This is just unimaginable and something nobody else has.
Johnson was talking about Oracle’s announcement in September when the company revealed its zettascale cloud computing clusters accelerated by the NVIDIA Blackwell platform. The company at the time was Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and was taking orders for the largest AI supercomputer in the cloud—available with up to 131,072 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs.
Mar Vista Global Strategy stated the following regarding Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) in its Q3 2024 investor letter:
“Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) is seeing revenue acceleration as it benefits from several years of investing in cloud-based solutions, which are now driving demand. The company is seeing broad-based demand for multiple of its cloud offerings, including its Fusion ERP Suite, its NetSuite offering and the Oracle Database. In addition to those anchor products, Oracle is also gaining traction with its OCI Gen 2 platform-as-a-service offering, which is winning mindshare from leading cloud customers, including Open AI, due to its favorable performance and cost metrics. This OCI Gen 2 solution is well-positioned to become a viable hyper scaler offering, furthered by Oracle’s recently announced partnerships with Microsoft Azure, Google Compute Platform, and Amazon’s AWS, which have all agreed to host Oracle’s flagship database in their respective hyper-scaler cloud environments. We believe this could support a third leg of growth for Oracle as its large installed base of database customers shift from on-premises to cloud deployments. As database customers migrate to a Cloud subscription model, Oracle could increase database software support revenues by 3-to-5 times. We continue to believe Oracle is well-positioned to grow intrinsic value strong double-digits over our investment horizon.”
Overall, ORCL ranks 7th on our list of AI stocks Wall Street is talking about. While we acknowledge the potential of ORCL, our conviction lies in the belief that under the radar AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe.
