A note from our sponsors...

The ONLY AI opportunity you should be looking at

This is the ONLY AI wealth-building opportunity you should be watching right now.

No. It's not about Nvidia, Tesla, or Meta...

It's about one overlooked company profiting off AI "digital goldmines" that are poised to experience 100x growth very soon.

This new opportunity will change the market and make investors a lot of money.

That's why it has received a $500 billion commitment from President Trump himself...

🔥 HOT: Power-chip maker ON Semiconductor (ON) is starting to look like an AI comeback story. Third-quarter earnings and revenue beat estimates, AI data-center sales reportedly jumped 175%, and the company is buying Ferric to deepen its position in power delivery for next-generation processors. Margins are improving too, while analysts expect earnings to rise sharply next year. For investors, the appeal is simple: ON was hit hard, but the business is now finding a fresh growth engine.

ON has a Zen Rating of A, a Strong Buy recommendation. The underlying Component Grades support that recovery story, with B grades for Growth, Safety, and Financials and nothing below C. That says the fundamentals are improving even though the stock has not fully recovered. Bottom line: ON is getting a second act from AI, and earnings growth is beginning to back it up.

🥶 NOT: Offshore driller Transocean (RIG) keeps signing big contracts, but the backlog is not turning into stronger earnings. The company added major Gulf of Mexico work and new deals with Shell and Equinor, yet earnings are expected to fall sharply next year while revenue stays roughly flat. Heavy debt makes that disconnect harder to ignore.

And our quant system is flashing red flags. RIG has a Zen Rating of D, a Sell recommendation. Sentiment earns an F and Growth gets a D, which tells us expectations are still moving the wrong way despite the new contracts. Bottom line: Transocean has plenty of work booked, but investors still need proof that those contracts can translate into better profits.

🔥 HOT: Commercial real estate giant Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) is getting an unexpected boost from the AI buildout. Third-quarter earnings and revenue beat estimates, while surging data-center investment is helping drive demand for warehouses and other commercial space. JLL is also targeting a massive outsourcing market through its real estate management business. For investors, that gives a traditional real estate company a new growth angle tied directly to AI infrastructure spending.

Our quant system is equally bullish on the story. JLL has a Zen Rating of A, a Strong Buy recommendation. The Component Grades are equally strong: Financials earns an A, while Value, Growth, Sentiment, and Safety all receive B grades. That combination points to a financially strong business with solid growth and a still-reasonable valuation. Bottom line: JLL offers a quieter way to play the AI infrastructure boom without paying a typical AI-stock multiple.

🥶 NOT: Network provider Lumen Technologies (LUMN) is pitching itself as an AI infrastructure turnaround, but the balance sheet still tells a different story. Partnerships with Microsoft and Snowflake sound promising, yet the latest quarter brought another loss and a revenue miss, revenue is expected to keep shrinking, and liabilities now exceed assets. Cash burn remains heavy too.

When it comes to our quant system, the consensus is “ruh-roh”: LUMN has a Zen Rating of D, a Sell recommendation. Momentum earns an F and Artificial Intelligence gets a D, while the rest of the card is stuck at C. That says the stock trend is weak and the model still sees little evidence that the AI narrative is translating into a real turnaround. Bottom line: the partnerships are interesting, but shrinking revenue and negative shareholder equity make Lumen a story in search of proof.
