AI Is Hungry for Software
Delivering World-Class Financial Research Since 1999
The bar has been raised for ‘winning’… Software ate the world… AI is hungry for software… The machines are coming for the lawyers… Five ‘final-phase’ AI stocks…
AI continues to breed new winners and losers…
We’ve been following AI’s rapid growth over the past few years… and how it’s influencing the economy and markets – for better or worse.
Chip stocks like Nvidia (NVDA) have had a remarkable run since ChatGPT’s release in 2022 showed what AI was capable of – sooner than many folks thought.
ChatGPT creator OpenAI has also enjoyed tremendous buzz and an eye-watering and curious valuation – as we discussed yesterday. It reportedly has plans to go public by the end of this year. Anthropic, creator of the rival Claude AI platform, could have an initial public offering (“IPO”), too.
However, we’ve also warned readers to be careful about putting their full faith in the promises of AI. If the high expectations aren’t met, or are even simply not perceived to be possible anymore, the consequences can be swift.
Today, chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) saw its shares plunge nearly 17%, even after reporting fourth-quarter results yesterday that beat Wall Street expectations. Why? Because Wall Street analysts evidently wanted more. Here’s CNBC today…
AMD said it expects $9.8 billion in revenue, plus or minus $300 million, during the first quarter. Expectations were for $9.38 billion.
Some analysts anticipated a far stronger outlook from the company, fueled by heightened AI spending and massive data center buildouts.
AMD also had a high bar to clear this quarter following a wave of megadeals in the fourth quarter, including partnerships with OpenAI and Oracle…
Clearly, the bar for “winning” in the AI boom has been raised.
Today, the tech sector of the S&P 500 Index meaningfully fell for a second straight day, losing around 3% and dragging down three of the four major indexes. Only the Dow Jones Industrial Average was in positive territory.
At the same time, the tech ‘food chain’ is changing…
Fifteen years ago, venture capitalist Marc Andreessen wrote a phrase that became famous in tech circles: “Software is eating the world.”
The software industry blossomed to new levels, thanks to cloud technology that allowed users to access software – not from floppy disks or CDs like when I (Corey McLaughlin) was a kid – but over the Internet and via subscriptions all over the world.
Software as a Service (“SaaS”) companies thrived in various industries and created tremendous value for shareholders and folks who went into coding for a profession to create specialized, easily accessible software.
Now, though, the software industry is in danger of being swallowed by another emerging technology: AI.
Coders were some of the first to lose their jobs because of the technology. Now, the products and businesses themselves are changing.
Our Select Value Opportunities editor, Mike Barrett, wrote this morning about one of the most recent major developments in the space. As Mike explained…
OpenAI competitor Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.5 – its most advanced generative artificial-intelligence (“AI”) model – on November 24, 2025. And it’s taking the technology to a whole new level.
As Boris Cherny, head of Claude Code, recently told the Wall Street Journal, “It’s just so different than the AI that came before.”
Opus 4.5 enables countless users, regardless of their coding experience, to quickly build complex, functional software. One person has used it to retrieve wedding photos from a corrupted hard drive. Shopify CEO Tobias Lütke even used it to analyze his MRI.
Banking giant JPMorgan Chase (JPM) has also entered the mix… Its asset-management unit manages more than $7 trillion in client funds. And it has to vote on corporate decisions for thousands of companies annually.
Traditionally, the bank has relied on third-party proxy advisory firms, like Glass Lewis and Institutional Shareholder Services, to accomplish this administrative feat. But now, JPMorgan Chase is set to begin using an internal AI-powered platform to manage all of its voting. If successful (which we expect it will be), other banks will surely follow.
There are endless examples…
If software ate the world, AI could now be eating software…
On Friday, Anthropic debuted a new legal-focused feature that “automates contract review, [non-disclosure agreement] triage, compliance workflows, legal briefings, and templated responses – all configurable to your organization’s playbook and risk tolerances. Built for commercial counsel, product counsel, privacy/compliance, and litigation support teams.”
The market reaction was swift. Software stocks and legal-related consultancies have taken a beating over the past few trading days. For example, LegalZoom (LZ) – the online legal services provider – saw its shares fall 20% yesterday.
The S&P 500 software and services sector is down almost 15% over the past week, and down roughly 25% from a previous high in October, as investors question the old ways of the software world. As Mike wrote in today’s Select Value Opportunitiesupdate…
You see, for decades, legions of companies have created specialized software to help customers manage specific tasks. This includes things like administering payroll and creating digital content, including original art.
These companies are now at risk of becoming obsolete due to AI platforms like Opus 4.5. After all, these platforms help regular folks build their own software programs… So they don’t have to pay someone else to do it for them.
Mike referred to what we’re seeing right now as a “SaaSpocalypse”…
In a nutshell, many investors are impulsively dumping their software stocks.
Given this sentiment, it’s not surprising that four of the top six most undervalued stocks in the Select Value Opportunities database right now are software companies – Adobe [(ADBE)], Tyler Technologies (TYL), Roper Technologies (ROP), and Broadridge Financial Solutions (BR). They’ve declined an average of 22% year to date, dramatically underperforming the S&P 500 Index.
The thing about impulse selling action like this, though, is that it can often be a signal of misguided emotions. Yes, it’s true that AI could be eating software as we know it, possibly replacing some software businesses. But other companies will adapt, as Mike wrote…
No one knows how the battle between AI and specialized software companies, like those mentioned above, will ultimately play out. We expect that some will successfully exploit AI and thrive, while others will wither and disappear.
While nobody can guarantee the future winners and losers in AI, our team has thoughts on who they could be, and we know from watching the markets over time that it’s quite possible to pick up shares of high-quality companies in sell-offs like these.
Mike already has exposure to AI via four stocks in the Select Value Opportunities portfolio… and I wouldn’t be surprised if he adds more as what he calls the “most disruptive innovation of our lifetime” plays out.
If you’re looking for more ways to profit…
As we wrote yesterday, it looks like the AI boom might be getting long in the tooth. Cracks have emerged as investors look for returns on investments and spending promises.
We’re seeing the hallmarks of “late stage” boom activity.
In a convoluted way, the overblown reaction to a single new AI legal feature is also a signal of too much excitement and promise in the sector.
However, as Stansberry’s Investment Advisory lead editor Whitney Tilson says, “that doesn’t mean you’ve missed out on all the gains.” As he wrote in a new special report for Investment Advisorysubscribers, published yesterday…
The biggest moves in bubbles often happen in the run’s final phase – where there’s a blow-off top before the crash.
I believe we are in that phase now and we’re getting very close to the top. But remember, most bubbles don’t suddenly burst.
It reminds me of early 2008, when I believed we were near the top of a massive bubble in the housing market. The market had peaked the previous October, but had declined only slightly as the worst companies in the sector blew up.
Whitney doesn’t think the AI bubble will burst suddenly, and remains “cautiously optimistic on the AI market.” There are stocks to be cautious about (like perhaps some software businesses that don’t adapt to AI) and those to be optimistic about.
In his new report “Five Final-Phase Stocks,” Whitney recommends five specific stocks that are set up to benefit as the AI boom plays out.
The list includes some leading developers of AI technology, but most are companies that will benefit in less obvious ways as the world’s AI demand continues to soar. Existing subscribers and Stansberry Alliance members have access to the full report here.

Wall Street’s ‘Debasement Trade’ Is a Full-Blown Gold Rush
Wall Street has been making headlines for piling into gold. They’ve dubbed it the “debasement trade”… And according to Dr. David “Doc” Eifrig, the gold bull run is just getting started. He says you should move your money to his No. 1 gold stock immediately (not a miner or ETF, but it has 1,000% upside potential). Doc is no stranger to moments like this… As a former Goldman Sachs vice president, he has traded profitably through just about every stock market situation you can imagine, including Black Monday. That’s why his latest gold alert deserves your attention. See Doc’s new work for free right here.

“I know it’s not a good idea to have a lot of capital in a single segment, but over the last year I wound up with a lot of my portfolio in precious metals and miners. On the 21st I noticed something strange, a sudden jump in silver prices. I kept watching and things accelerated. From reading all of the information you provided, I knew what was going on. I liquidated all my precious metal stocks on the 27th. Maybe I sold too soon, because they kept going up the next day. Did I miss out? Nope, the next day everything went down the tubes and I pocketed enough to pay our medical bills for the last year. My wife now knows the value of being an Alliance member.” – Stansberry Alliance member Earl H.

This Sector Shift Isn’t Random
Wednesday, February 4, 2026
Don here…
The Nasdaq just breached the lower edge of its expected move. The Dow is pushing the upper edge of its expected move. That divergence tells you everything about what’s happening right now.
I’m calling it sector insanity.
Fund managers are chasing anything that isn’t tech. The moves reek of desperation.
XLB, the materials ETF, did 50 times its normal daily volume today. This isn’t options activity driving it. This is pure panic buying.
70 out of 100 stocks in the S&P 100 traded higher today. The index still closed red. Tech is so heavy it’s dragging down the entire market even with a wildly positive advance decline line.
Two scenarios play out from here. Either tech bounces from oversold territory and fund managers dump the defensive names they panic-bought. Or tech continues to bleed and the dominoes fall across every sector.
Consumer staples get annihilated in both scenarios.
In tonight’s video, I break down the manic rotation and what happens next:
- ExxonMobil is up over 20% year to date while oil prices don’t justify the move
- Walmart is trading like a tech stock with parabolic price action
- XLP consumer staples is in a parabolic move where I’m positioned bearish
- The S&P 500 has an $85 expected move with two trading sessions left this week
- Tomorrow alone has a $60 expected move with Amazon earnings on deck
We’re stuck between 6950 and 6850 on the S&P 500 futures. I’ve been flagging these levels for weeks. We hit 6862 today and bounced.
Things are about to get wild.

Today’s Bonus: Knowledge Gets Weird!
Today’s Bonus: Knowledge Gets Weird!
For over 75 years, Louisiana’s “bear wrestling” was a legitimate (though completely insane) entertainment sport where humans would actually grapple with live black bears in makeshift rings at county fairs and roadside attractions. The bears had their claws removed and were muzzled, but they still weighed 300-500 pounds and could easily crush a human. “Wrestlers” would pay $50 to enter the ring and try to pin the bear for 60 seconds to win $100. Most matches lasted about 10 seconds before the human was thrown across the ring. The most bizarre part? It was completely legal until 1996! The sport only ended when animal rights activists proved the bears were suffering from stress-induced psychosis. The last professional bear wrestler, “Terrible Ted,” retired to a sanctuary where he reportedly still shadowboxes with his caretakers!

The 2.5x Ratio That Tells You Where Stocks Go…
Selloffs like this separate traders who react from traders who see it coming.
Tomorrow at 7PM ET, Blake is revealing Deep Sonar, the method he uses to detect pressure building beneath the surface before moves become obvious.
It’s how he captured $3,300+ on TSM and $3,900+ on PLTR.
One night only. Exclusive reveal.
Don here…
Blake Young has backtested the dollar-equity relationship for decades. The ratio holds at 2.5x inverse.
A 2% dollar rally means a 5% equity drop. Every time.
The dollar is setting up to push from 97.65 to 99.51. That’s almost exactly 2%. Blake ran the math live this morning and showed the S&P target: 6550.
That erases everything back to last August.
Meanwhile, the S&P just printed a double top. Blake confirmed it using his pirate flag technique. A close below 6888 triggers the pattern.
First target is 6745. Second target is 6550 if the dollar keeps climbing.
Here’s teh thing…these signals don’t show up on a standard chart.
Blake layers dollar correlations, stochastics divergence, and volume distribution to see what’s coming before price confirms it.
That layered approach is behind wins like $3,300+ on TSM, $3,900+ on PLTR, and 190% on CHWY.
Tomorrow at 7PM EST, he’s breaking down exactly how it works in Deep Sonar Uncovered.
In today’s Live Trading Room session replay, you’ll see:
- The call vertical with a 12% edge. Selling the 692/693 spread for 50 cents. One-to-one reward risk with 61% probability.
- The diagonal put spread paying for its own time decay. March 695 put versus February 670 put. Costs $12.80 now. The roll collects $7.50. That’s 150% return if nothing moves.
- Why silver targets 72, then 64.Divergence targets mapped perfectly. Old support at 83 is now resistance.
- The rights and obligations framework for diagonals. Own the right to sell at 695. Rent out the obligation at 670. Max spread is $25. After rolling, cost basis drops to $5.30.
Blake structured both trades live. The vertical gives you managed risk and probability edge. The diagonal gives you four-to-one reward risk if you’re willing to roll.
Neither requires the market to crash. Both profit if it simply stops going up.

Gosar Seeks Answers from DHS on Reported Immigration Detention…
| For Immediate ReleaseContact: Anthony FotiDate: February 4, 2026anthony.foti@mail.house.gov |
| Gosar Seeks Answers from DHS on Reported Immigration Detention Facility in Surprise Washington, DC — Congressman Paul A. Gosar, D.D.S. (AZ-09), issued the following statement in response to sending a formal letter to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) seeking answers regarding reports that a warehouse facility in Surprise, Arizona may be converted into a large-scale federal immigration detention center: “The rule of law is not optional. I strongly support Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the enforcement of our nation’s immigration laws. Detention capacity is a necessary component of a functioning immigration system—particularly after years of reckless open-border policies under the Biden administration that allowed millions of illegal aliens to flood into the United States, overwhelming resources and forcing reactive federal measures that could have been avoided. At the same time, while immigration policy is set at the federal level, its impacts are felt most acutely at the local level. Reports of a large-scale detention facility in Surprise raise legitimate questions for residents, schools, first responders, and local governments. Concerns about infrastructure, traffic, emergency services, and public safety deserve serious and transparent consideration and Empowering state and local officials in decisions that affect their communities consistently produces the most effective outcomes. These are not anti-illegal alien concerns. They are common-sense expectations of transparency and coordination. I trust that DHS will work cooperatively with state and local officials and communicate openly with the communities affected by its decisions. “My goal is straightforward: immigration enforcement must be carried out effectively while respecting the legitimate interests of the communities that bear its local impacts. I am confident that DHS will provide clear answers and will work collaboratively with local stakeholders moving forward,” stated Congressman Paul Gosar. BACKGROUND:Recent reports indicate that the Department of Homeland Security may convert a warehouse facility in Surprise, Arizona into a large-scale federal immigration detention center. Surprise is a rapidly growing community, and any facility of this scale has the potential to significantly affect local infrastructure, traffic patterns, public safety resources, and emergency services.In response, Congressman Gosar, who represents Surprise and the surrounding area, sent a formal oversight letter to DHS requesting detailed information about the proposal. The letter affirms strong support for ICE and the enforcement of federal immigration law, while emphasizing the importance of transparency, planning, and coordination with state and local officials.The letter requests answers regarding the facility’s capacity, operational structure, security measures, funding sources, infrastructure impacts, and whether the site would operate on a temporary or permanent basis. It also seeks clarity on DHS’s consultation with local governments and first responders, as well as how the department plans to communicate with residents and Congress if the facility moves forward.Congressman Gosar’s inquiry reflects his constitutional oversight responsibilities and his commitment to ensuring that federal immigration enforcement is conducted transparently, without disregarding the legitimate interests of the communities most directly affected.A copy of the letter can be found by clicking here.### |
