AI Winners vs. AI Victims – Get on the Right Side of This Trade
In the early 1900s, Eric Fry's grandfather lost his job on an Illinois farm – not to a person, but to Henry Ford's tractor. Displaced by a machine, he packed up and headed west to work as a cowboy in Montana. That story has become a warning for our times. InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips Today, AI is rapidly displacing workers in nearly every industry – creating a massive divide between what Eric calls the 'AI Appliers' and the 'AI Victims.' According to Eric, the impact of AI today is as disruptive as the tractor was to American farming. And the pace is accelerating as the world approaches artificial general intelligence (AGI). In today's Digest, Eric tells us about two stocks that have taken dramatically different routes as AI continues to split our stock market. The first is rapidly generating wealth; the second is destroying it. This divergence is why Eric is sounding the alarm in an important new presentation called He'll tell you more today. Bottom line: AI isn't just coming – it's here. And Eric believes investors have only a short window to prepare. I'll let him take it from here. Have a good weekend, Jeff Remsburg ********************** I once asked my dad why his father migrated from the Illinois farm country to Montana cattle country in the early 1900s. 'Henry Ford destroyed all the farm jobs,' he told me. 'My dad couldn't get work on the farms anymore, so he moved up to Boseman to work as a cowboy.' Now, Henry Ford did not destroy farm jobs personally, of course… but his innovative tractor did. His 'Fordson Model F' tractor went into production in 1917 and became an instant hit with farmers in the Midwest. As the first mass-produced, inexpensive tractor, the Fordsons captured an overwhelming 70% share of the market by 1922, and their popularity grew rapidly. By 1928, 700,000 of them were rolling off the production line each year. Artificial intelligence is not unlike Henry Ford's novel tractor. It is a new technology that will produce widespread efficiency gains, while also reducing or eliminating entire categories of employment. Changes of that magnitude are difficult to imagine and, therefore, difficult to embrace seamlessly and profitably. That is why we must 'future-proof' our lives to the furthest extent possible. It is also why we must remain focused on the once-in-a-generation investment opportunities AI is producing. In effect, artificial intelligence is slashing the world of commerce into two distinct groups: the AI appliers and the AI victims. The companies that hope to survive and thrive must adopt and integrate AI technologies as quickly as possible. Those that fail to do so will perish… and time is of the essence, especially as we get closer and closer to achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI). I first sounded the alarm about the approach of AGI last August. At that time, I shared several companies that I believed to be both AI winners and losers to my subscribers at my elite trading service, And it turns out, my calls were right on the money, literally. So today, let's take a deep dive on one AI success story to examine the traits that powered its market-beating results… and one a company in the crosshairs of AI that everyone should avoid. Let's take a look… Since I profiled this AI winner last August, its stock has soared 80%. This Boston-based firm provides AI-enabled solutions for virtually every facet of the restaurant biz – from online ordering fulfillment to reservations management to supply-chain control. I'm talking about Toast Inc. (TOST). Since 2011, Toast has been perfecting a platform that can come in and handle all of the tech that restaurants need, integrating online ordering, contactless payments, delivery services… and even bookkeeping. The result is a software platform that almost all of us – or at least nearly everyone who orders takeout or delivery online (myself included) – have used at some point. This technology has helped Toast achieve a remarkable 119% net revenue retention rate since 2015. This software-as-a-service (SaaS) metric calculates the percentage of revenue retained from an existing customer over a specific period of time. In essence, Toast has become a database software company. The firm has one of the largest and most valuable datasets in the entire restaurant industry, enabling it to develop and perfect leading-edge AI tools for the industry. Toast's database software can help restaurants calculate their costs in real-time and understand when to offer specific food items and at what price. These real-time insights can mean the difference between success or failure in the cutthroat restaurant business. The more data Toast gathers from its growing roster of clients, the better its AI becomes. Toast's operating margins have achieved a pivotal inflexion point, from negative to positive. After running double-digit negative margins for several years, that metric inched into positive territory nine months ago and has continued moving higher. As a result, Toast's gross profit (EBITDA) is also positive and moving higher. Last week, the company reported record revenue and EBITDA for the first quarter, both of which topped analyst estimates by a wide margin. The stock celebrated the good news by jumping 10% on the day of the earnings release. Toast is integrating AI technology into its market-leading platform as rapidly and comprehensively as possible, which is one big reason why I expect the company to thrive. It's the kind of company you may want to investigate further, as it should produce growing revenues and earnings over the coming years. As AI technologies stretch the tentacles into every facet of our existence, the roster of successful 'AI appliers' will grow by the day. But the roster of 'AI victims' will grow even larger. Here is one such stock to avoid… The companies that fail to adopt AI technologies either lack the expertise to do so or have business models that are fundamentally incompatible with AI. Either way, we do not want to be holding stocks that AI is threatening. That's why I continue to highlight at-risk companies from time to time, like I did last August when I identified Shutterstock Inc. (SSTK) as a company 'sitting in the crosshairs of AI.' As I explained at the time… Once upon a time, Shutterstock was a cutting-edge graphics company with a massive, and valuable, library of proprietary images. Today, that library looks more like an anvil than a pair of wings. Since issuing that warning, Shutterstock's financial results have continued to deteriorate. The company posted EPS of just $1.01 last year, not the $1.90 analysts expected, while the consensus earnings estimate for this year has tumbled from $3 to $2.10. Not surprisingly, the stock is down more than 40% since my skeptical analysis. Shutterstock is not an outlier. Therefore, we must examine every prospective investment through the lens of AI and be alert to both the opportunities and the hazards it will create. That's why I've just put the finishing touches on four new research reports focused on investing in AI before artificial general intelligence takes hold. Three of the reports highlight a stock to buy, while the fourth one warns about three stocks to sell. . Like last August, I am once again hosting an event on AGI's dangers – and opportunities. The time to get ready before AGI appears is running out, which is why I am now issuing my During that event, , I put forward a three-part blueprint, featuring… My thoughts on why precious metals, energy, real estate, and biotech sectors are where everyone should be looking right now… My No. 1 AGI-related stock pick that's already showed a 46% gain while the S&P 500 index dropped 5%… And details on critical stocks to avoid or sell immediately before they collapse. .

Eric and Teresa Guerrein of Lakeshore Towing were awarded a Community Pride Award for the installation and maintenance of litter control devices they allowed to be placed on their property. Erie Water Works, Keep Pa Beautiful unite to release litter control boom These litter control booms help keep trash and debris from the city out of the main portions of Presque Isle Bay. 'It's very difficult to get litter out of the water. It's much easier to keep the litter from going in and using these booms to contain the litter,' Teresa said. DHS Secretary Arkoosh highlights childcare investments during Erie visit 'There's a lot of things we do besides trying to support our business. We like to support the environment and the tourism because it all ties in together,' Eric said. State Representative Pat Harkins, Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful, and the Erie Port Authority surprised Lakeshore Towing with the award. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
