History Says the Stock Market Is About to Soar: 2 Brilliant AI Stocks to Buy Now
Investors became very bearish when the Trump administration announced tariffs, but extreme pessimism has historically been a contrarian signal. Amazon is leaning into artificial intelligence (AI) across its retail and cloud segments, and its multibillion-dollar AI business is growing at a triple-digit pace. CoreWeave has been recognized by independent analysts as the best GPU cloud on the market, and the company reported 420% revenue growth in the first quarter. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) has advanced 2% year to date, but history says the index is headed much higher in the next year. A survey from the American Association of Individual Investors showed 61.9% of respondents were bearish during the week ended April 3, which means they expected the market to decline over the next six months. Bearish sentiment has only topped 60% in eight weekly surveys since 1987. In this case, the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration were responsible for the widespread pessimism, but all previous incidents have something in common: Stocks were always much higher a year later. In fact, the S&P 500 has returned an average of 27% in the 12 months after bearish sentiment readings above 60%. That may sound counterintuitive, but extreme pessimism is typically a contrarian signal because most situations are less dire than they first appear. In this scenario, the S&P 500 closed at 5,397 on April 3. If its performance matches the historical average, the index will advanced 27% to 6,854 by next April. That implies 13% upside from its current level of 6,040. Of course, past results are never a guarantee of future performance, but investors can still lean into historical trends provided they maintain a long-term mindset. Here's why Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and CoreWeave (NASDAQ: CRWV) are smart investments today. Amazon runs the largest e-commerce marketplace outside of China, and its market share in the United States is forecast to top 40% this year. It is the largest retail advertising company in the world with nearly 40% market share, and Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the largest public cloud with 29% market share in infrastructure and platform services. Amazon is using artificial intelligence (AI) to generate revenue and improve efficiency across its businesses. CEO Andy Jassy says the company is building 1,000 generative AI applications to streamline retail workflows, including tools for coding, customer service, inventory management, and last-mile delivery. Morgan Stanley recently called Amazon's retail business the "most underappreciated" generative AI beneficiary in the tech space. Meanwhile, Amazon is leaning into AI demand in its cloud business. The company designed custom chips for AI training and inference that offer better price performance than leading graphics processing units (GPUs), according to Andy Jassy. AWS also added a generative AI development platform called Bedrock, which complements its machine learning service SageMaker. "Our AI business has a multibillion-dollar annual revenue run rate, continues to grow triple-digit year-over-year percentages, and is still in its very early days," Andy Jassy told analysts on the first-quarter earnings call. Wall Street expects Amazon's earnings to increase at 10% annually through 2026. That makes the current valuation of 35 times earnings look expensive, but I think analysts are underestimating the company. Amazon beat the consensus estimate by an average of 21% over the last six quarters. Patient investors should feel comfortable buying a small position today. CoreWeave provides infrastructure and software services through its dedicated GPU cloud. While Amazon and Microsoft offer similar products, CoreWeave is differentiated in that its cloud platform is purpose-built to support AI tasks, such as training large language models and running inference on machine learning applications. CoreWeave has eight years of experience managing GPU-accelerated cloud infrastructure, and the company has become quite adept. It regularly reports best-in-class results at the MLPerf benchmarks -- objective tests that measure the performance of AI systems across various workloads. In turn, SemiAnalysis recently ranked the platform as the best GPU cloud on the market. CoreWeave reported impressive financial results in Q1. Revenue increased 420% to $981 million, and non-GAAP operating income (which excludes stock-based compensation and interest on debt) rose 550% to $162 million. Management also said its revenue backlog rose 63% to $25.9 billion due primarily to a deal signed with OpenAI in March. Investors should be aware that CoreWeave stock is particularly hot right now. Its share price has advanced about 285% since the company went public less than three months ago. Additionally, the current valuation of 29 times sales is rather expensive. But I think the premium is justified for a company that is not only growing sales at a triple-digit pace but has also achieved a 73% gross profit margin in the recent quarter.

UK Power Rental Market Assessment & Forecasts 2025-2030 with Aggreko, United Rentals, Sunbelt Rentals, Speedy, Caterpillar, Atlas Copco, Cummins, and KOHLER Leading
The UK Power Rental Market, valued at USD 335 million in 2024, is projected to reach USD 451.10 million by 2030, growing at a 5.08% CAGR. Key drivers include government energy transition policies and infrastructure investment, impacting rental prices and demand. Diesel remains dominant, but alternative fuels gain traction. UK Power Rental Market Dublin, June 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "UK Power Rental Market - Strategic Assessment & Forecast 2025-2030" report has been added to UK Power Rental Market was valued at USD 335 Million in 2024, and is projected to reach USD 451.10 Million by 2030, rising at a CAGR of 5.08%. The UK is a leading power rental market in Europe, with total rental equipment valued at USD 6–7 billion in 2024, according to the Europe Rental Association (ERA). The power rental segment is highly fragmented, with the top four companies holding only one-third of the market. The UK rental market offers a diverse range of equipment, from large earth-moving machines to small power tools. Diesel-powered equipment continues to dominate the UK power rental market. However, growing environmental concerns are driving demand for alternative fuels such as HVO, hydrogen, and biofuels. The 375 KVA–1000 KVA range sees the highest demand due to its widespread use across industries like construction and mining. Power rentals are especially in demand in the construction, utilities, and IT & data center sectors, fueled by rising investments in infrastructure and a surge in data center development. England and Scotland show particularly strong demand, with extreme weather conditions—including heavy rainfall and storms—further increasing the need for temporary power solutions. Generators are the most commonly rented power equipment. Diesel generators are widely used for backup power in events, retail, and utilities, while natural gas-powered generators are gaining a growing share of the market. MARKET DRIVERS & OPPORTUNITIES UK Government Policies for Energy Transition Support the Power Rental Market Growth The UK government has increased its focus on achieving the goal of carbon neutrality in 2025. The government has introduced several policies for energy transition across the country. The government planned to invest in a cleaner and resilient energy system under the Powering up Britain program in 2024. It aims to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality by 2050 through various initiatives such as expanding renewable energy sources such as wind, hydro & solar, and boosting the domestic energy production of the country. In 2024, the Industrial Decarbonization and Hydrogen Revenue Support (IDHRS) scheme witnessed total funding of USD 27.9 million. The scheme allocated the funds for industrial carbon capture, utilization, & storage projects and hydrogen production. The funding is also directed towards the development of new hydrogen-to-power business models. Demand for Rental Equipment Backed by Infrastructure Investments by the Government In 2024, the UK government has committed to unlocking USD 95.92 billion for private investment by 2030 and supporting the development of green industries by 2050. The government has laid out USD 490.2 billion for the infrastructure in its National Infrastructure and Construction Pipeline. This investment will include USD 74.6 billion for the transport infrastructure and USD 45.8 billion for social structures such as schools, housing, and healthcare. Government infrastructure investment is focused on accelerating the construction of critical infrastructure projects across the country. Key focus areas of investment include decarbonization of the electricity grid and investment in net-zero power generation capacity. Investment is directed toward clean energy generation through wind, solar, and nuclear, and upgrading the energy distribution infrastructure. In addition to this, the government is also planning to invest in housing projects under the New Town Development projects and the development of essential infrastructure such as healthcare facilities and public transport. Investment is also directed toward the development of rail and roadways to improve connectivity across the country. Such a growing number of investments in the project is projected to support the U.K. power rental market growth. Use of Alternative Fuel in Rental Equipment In 2025, European rental companies are focusing on reducing carbon emissions and transitioning to more sustainable energy solutions. Presently, diesel-powered rental equipment is mainly used for rental purposes across the UK. However, the rental companies are exploring alternative fuel options like biofuels, hydrogen, and electricity for powering their rental equipment. In June 2021, Aggreko undertook its first pilot project of a 50kVA hydrogen combustion power generation unit at its depot in Moerdijk, Netherlands. The companies in the U.K. power rental market are attempting to transition towards fleets powered by low-carbon fuel alternatives such as hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) or natural gas, which are less polluting than diesel. HVO is made from waste vegetable and animal fats that can be used as a replacement for diesel, which leads to high carbon emissions. Fluctuation in Diesel Prices Impacts U.K. Power Rental Market Diesel-powered generators have a significant market share of over 70% in the U.K. power rental market. It is mainly used in construction, mining, retail, oil & gas & IT industries. However, fluctuations in the prices of diesel can negatively impact the U.K. power rental market. In 2025, the diesel prices witnessed an increase, with the average price rising from 142.9p in January to 145.7p in February 2025. The prices of diesel have increased fourth consecutive month. The prices increased by over 4% in February 2025 compared to February 2024. Several factors have led to the rise in diesel prices in the UK market. Rise in crude oil prices in the global market, supply chain constraints, and variation in currency exchange of the pound & dollar. U.K. POWER RENTAL MARKET GEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSISAccording to an IEA report, the UK's total electricity consumption in 2024 was 324.084 GWh. The power demand was highest in the England region, followed by Scotland and 2024, the UK experienced extreme weather conditions, including heavy rainfalls and thunderstorms, such as those from storms Henk, Kathleen, and Bert, which caused flooding and strong winds that disrupted the power supply. As a result, these regions are expected to see higher demand for power rentals and support the U.K. power rental market growth. IMPACT OF TARIFFS In 2025, the UK government imposed a 10% baseline tariff on goods imported from the UK. In addition to the baseline tariff, the US government also imposed a 25% tariff on all aluminum, steel, automobile parts & passenger vehicles. However, the UK government has not announced any new tariffs on US goods yet. The UK government is seeking a consultation on potential tariffs on the US. The US government announced a temporary pause in tariff hikes, but the situation remains uncertain after 90 days, with a 10 % minimum tariff in effect. This trade tension significantly impacts the UK, which imports machinery & transport equipment, including power equipment such as generators. According to National Statistics, the UK imported over USD 7 billion of mechanical power generators in 2024. With the potential implementation tariff, the cost of importing the generator for rental purposes would rise significantly due to increased duties, shipping complexities, and currency fluctuations. These added costs are likely to be passed on to UK consumers, causing a notable increase in rental prices of power equipment. As a result, demand for locally manufactured power equipment is expected to grow. Some power rental companies, such as United Rentals & Finning CAT, are importing products from the United States market to rent in the UK market. A surge in tariff rates is expected to increase the rental prices of the equipment. However, the UK government stated its priority is to strike a deal with the US that would lead to the removal of the newly imposed U.S. tariff.
