Using the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/professional\/products\/bloomberg-terminal\/portfolio-analytics\/#overview\">Bloomberg PORT<\/a> attribution analysis, the BAIAT Index has outperformed the B100QT Index by 27.6% over the past five years. To separate the effect of Magnificent 7, which has seen significant investment from both passive and active managers, we also examined the return attribution from the non-Mag 7 group. The analysis reveals that the outperformance is driven by both the overweight of the Mag 7 (with a contribution to return of 10.7%), and more significantly, from the selection effect of non-Mag 7 AI stocks (contributing 24.7% to the return). For instance, <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconangle.com\/2024\/07\/30\/arista-seizes-ai-networking-opportunity-strong-earnings-beat-revenue-growth\/\">Arista Networks<\/a>, which has thrived amidst the cloud infrastructure surge, delivered a contribution to return of 2.8% with an index weight of just 0.4% during this period.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"wpb_content_element bbg-single-image align-center\">\n    <figure class=\"bbg-single-image__figure\" style=\"max-width:1024px\">\n                <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"227\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI7.jpg\" class=\"bbg-single-image__image attachment-large\" alt=\"Figure 3\" title=\"AI7\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI7.jpg 552w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI7.jpg 768w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI7.jpg 192w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI7.jpg 812w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\n        \n            <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<h2>Entering the \u201cshow me\u201d phase<\/h2>\n<p>Capital investment among cloud giants has surged, with these tech leaders channeling resources into data center infrastructure, AI chips, servers, and R&amp;D.

The year has seen a rotation from early \u201cpicks-and-shovels\u201d investments \u2013 such as infrastructure and foundational hardware &#8211; toward software and applications in the latter half. With concerns about \u201cmissing the train\u201d on specific AI segments, investors are now focusing on companies that demonstrate clear growth potential.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing this demand, Bloomberg has introduced the Bloomberg Artificial Intelligence Growth Select Index (BAIGST). The Index selects the top 50 companies based on size, historical revenue and EBITDA growth metrics from the BAIAT index constituents. It also incorporates a growth factor, factoring in projected revenue growth rates within its weighting methodology. By blending past performance with future revenue projections, this index identifies AI companies with a track record of robust growth and strong future potential.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to the parent BAIAT, higher exposure to factors such as Size, Momentum and Growth allows BAIGST to better capture the AI theme by balancing the exposures to early beneficiaries such as Mag 7, and rapidly growing companies that are often at the forefront of AI innovation. Together, these factors position BAIGST to capitalize on dynamic, fast-growing AI players that drive the theme forward.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"\" class=\"wpb_content_element bbg-single-image align-center\">\n    <figure class=\"bbg-single-image__figure\" style=\"max-width:1024px\">\n                <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"405\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI8.jpg\" class=\"bbg-single-image__image attachment-large\" alt=\"Figure 4\" title=\"AI8\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI8.jpg 800w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI8.jpg 552w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI8.jpg 768w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI8.jpg 192w, https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/image\/v1\/resize?width=auto&amp;type=webp&amp;url=https:\/\/assets.bbhub.io\/professional\/sites\/41\/AI8.jpg 923w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\n        \n            <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<p>With generative AI projected to reach a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/company\/press\/generative-ai-to-become-a-1-3-trillion-market-by-2032-research-finds\/\">$1.3 trillion market by 2032<\/a>, the AI revolution is set to persist and evolve, continually reshaping the economy. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/professional\/products\/indices\/thematic\/\">Thematic indices<\/a> focused specifically on AI may offer a more appealing option for investors looking to gain exposure to the long-term growth potential associated with this megatrend.
