Without question…

The 2024 trading year will go down as the year that AI broke onto the scene – and changed the way companies do business forever.

Maybe you caught onto this trend…

Or maybe you missed the boat…

Either way, the combination of AI and Quantum computing is here to stay – and today’s article offers you the best way to gain full exposure to this entire sector – all by using one simple trade.

You see, instead of searching for the next big winner (like Nvidia), the better approach is to simply own a collection of the top AI and quantum computing companies – which offers you the comfort of knowing that you (most likely) own a small piece of the next big winner within your grouping of companies.

If you believe that the AI craze that started in 2024 will most likely extend into 2025 (and beyond), then the combination of AI and Quantum Computing will be major tech-sector theme for us to play.

The best way to do that – all in one shot – is by using the following 2 ETF’s.

The first one is QTUM, which (to me) represents more of a next-phase of the AI movement.

The second one, AIQ, represents more of an extension of the 2024 trends – which includes popular names that we’re all familiar with.

Either way, both of them could be the very best way to have a diversified mix of companies leading the next generation of tech leadership groups.

Here’s a breakdown of each one:

MONDAY MARKET MINUTE

• 2025 Trading Trend: I still Love Defense/Aerospace: Global military spending reached $2.4 trillion last year – which was a 6.8% increase over last year. As you can guess, the US spent the most – totaling $916 billion, which was up from 877$ billion the year before. The ITA remains my best way to play the entire sector – while RTX remains my top defense/aerospace pick amongst the group. Tracking.
• Fed policy outlook: the FOMC meets Tuesday, Wednesday. A -25 bp rate cut is a done deal, leaving the market focus squarely on forward guidance. Analysts expect a cautious tone from Chair Powell that will leave a hawkish tilt to the Fed’s move.
• A Bargain Cloud and E-commerce Company: Alibaba (BABA) Yes, I know they’re a Chinese company. But at a stock price just below $90 per share, it’s trading at 10x current-year revenues, which is well below the 45x valuation of Amazon. They also have $50 billion in net cash, which represents about 25% of their current valuation.
• Trump and Oil Beneficiaries: The top oil-related companies will benefit if Trump eliminates the rules on carbon dioxide emissions, which he did in his first term.
