What tech stocks connected to AI

Screening Filters

1. Sector = Technology

   • Purpose: Limit results to companies classified as technology firms.
   • Rationale: You specifically asked for “technology stocks,” so this filter ensures we focus on businesses whose primary operations are in software, hardware, semiconductors, IT services, etc., where AI development and deployment are most concentrated.

2. Themes = ['AI Beneficiary', 'Cloud Computing', 'Big Data', 'Robotics']

   • Purpose: Target companies that are directly involved in, or significantly benefit from, artificial intelligence and closely related technologies.
   • Rationale:
     • AI Beneficiary: Captures firms whose products, services, or cost structures are meaningfully impacted by AI (e.g., AI software platforms, AI‑driven analytics, chipmakers powering AI workloads).
     • Cloud Computing: AI workloads are often run in the cloud; cloud infrastructure and platform providers are central to AI adoption.
     • Big Data: AI models rely on large datasets; companies specializing in data storage, processing, and analytics are tightly linked to AI.
     • Robotics: Many robotics applications (industrial, logistics, consumer) are AI‑driven, so robotics firms are an important subset of AI‑connected tech.
       Together, these themes increase the likelihood that the stocks are not just “tech” but are genuinely connected to AI and its ecosystem.

3. Market_cap ≥ 5,000,000,000 (≥ $5B)

   • Purpose: Focus on larger, more established companies.
   • Rationale: Larger-cap tech companies are more likely to have meaningful AI initiatives, substantial R&D budgets, and commercial AI products, rather than just speculative or early‑stage projects. This aligns the list with more recognizable, institutionally followed AI‑related tech stocks.

4. Monthly_average_dollar_volume ≥ 1,000,000 (≥ $1M traded per month)

   • Purpose: Ensure the stocks are reasonably liquid.
   • Rationale: Higher trading volume makes it easier to enter and exit positions without large price impact. For someone looking to act on a list of AI‑connected tech stocks, liquidity is a practical requirement so the names are realistically investable.

5. is_index_component ∈ ['GSPC', 'NDX'] (S&P 500 or Nasdaq 100 members)

   • Purpose: Restrict results to large, well‑known, benchmark index constituents.
   • Rationale:
     • The S&P 500 (GSPC) and Nasdaq 100 (NDX) contain many of the dominant global technology and AI leaders.
     • Index membership implies a certain size, stability, and reporting quality.
     • This helps surface the core, widely followed AI‑linked technology stocks rather than obscure microcaps.

6. is_optionable = True

   • Purpose: Include only stocks that have listed options.
   • Rationale: Optionability often correlates with institutional interest, liquidity, and maturity of the company. Many investors in AI‑themed stocks use options (for hedging or speculation), so this ensures that all returned names support those strategies and are actively traded.

Why Results Match

• The Technology sector filter aligns the universe to what you explicitly requested: technology stocks.
• The AI‑related themes (AI Beneficiary, Cloud, Big Data, Robotics) directly target the core technological areas most closely connected to artificial intelligence.
• The size (market cap), liquidity (dollar volume), and index membership filters refine the list toward established, investable names that are realistically accessible and more likely to have substantive AI exposure rather than just hype.
• The optionable criterion further emphasizes actively traded, institutionally relevant companies, which typically includes many of the key AI‑connected technology leaders.
