With artificial intelligence (AI) booming, the "Magnificent Seven" stocks (Mag 7) have received a lot of media and investor attention. They're collectively some of the most important companies in the AI ecosystem, so that's not a real shocker. What might be a shocker, though, is just how much this old-school tech company has outperformed them recently. Over the past 12 months, Intel's (NASDAQ: INTC) stock is up over 148%. That's over 100% higher than Alphabet, the Mag 7's best performer in that span. Wher ...

人工智能无疑是当今科技领域的核心议题，但它远非故事的全部，我们发布的第28期《财富》全球最受 赞赏的公司排行榜的全明星榜单便是明证。 这份榜单基于对约3,000名企业高管、董事及分析师的问卷调查得出的年度企业声誉排行，苹果 （Apple）连续第19年摘得榜首桂冠。尽管观察人士对其在人工智能领域的进展不乏忧虑，但调研受访 者不仅重视创新成果，也看重企业在人才、资本与供应链方面的管理能力。因此，苹果依然斩获最高评 分。 图片来源：视觉中国 人工智能仍然是影响今年榜单格局的关键力量：图形处理器巨头英伟达（Nvidia）高居第四位；芯片巨 头台积电第二年登上全明星榜单，排名由去年的45位上升至36位；两家新晋上榜企业的崛起同样得益于 人工智能浪潮的推动，它们是芯片制造商AMD（第48位）与企业级科技平台公司Workday（并列第49 位）。 在行业榜上，中国有6家公司入围，比去年多一家，分别是：计算机行业排在第6位的 联想 、第7位的 华硕电脑 ；互联网服务和零售行业排在第3位的 阿里巴巴 、第7位的 腾讯 、第8位的 美团 ；以及半导 体行业排在第2位的 台积电 。 ——本刊编辑部 苹果 图片来源：视觉中国 英伟达 ...

此外考虑将一部分资产配置于黄金（对冲货币贬值与尾部风险，但留意近期贵金属连续强劲刷新记录高位，已经严重超买）、其他大宗商品（对冲通胀与地 缘风险）以及基础设施等能产生稳定收益的实物资产。并保留一定比例的现金或短期国债，不仅能在市场暴跌时提供缓冲，更能捕捉未来出现的高确定性机 会。 过去几个月来，科技等增长型板块的表现逊于周期性板块和价值股。但是，大型科技公司凭借扎实的现金流和对AI趋势的卡位，在经济不确定性中反而更 像资金"避难所"，仍有能力带领市场创新高。机构预期，盈利增长、周期性上涨以及人工智能的广泛应用，都将支撑标普500指数和市场波动率，而市场脆 弱性和高风险政策则会加剧市场不稳定性。但无疑，上涨的路径将更为震荡，且其领导地位正从"增长引擎"逐渐转变为"市场系统性风险的集中体现"。 由于近几周市场几乎都被紧张的地缘政治局势所牵引，掩盖了一个事实：本轮财报季的科技公司业绩其实不乏亮点。实际上在已经公布业绩的科技股中，台 积电（财报和指引双双超出市场预期）、网飞（业绩优于预期，但对本季度和今年全年的业绩指引谨慎）和英特尔（营收和每股收益超预期，但本季度业绩 指引低于预测）都交出了不错的成绩单。本周市场继续 ...
