4 Tech Stocks Positioned for Strong Growth in the Rest of 2025
Stocks in the Technology sector, including Broadcom AVGO, Zoom Communications ZM, NVIDIA NVDA and Fortinet FTNT, are poised for transformative growth in 2025, driven by artificial intelligence (AI), quantum computing, and a strong focus on sustainability and cybersecurity.Agentic AI, which enables machines to autonomously complete complex tasks, is one of the most significant developments, reducing the need for human intervention. Alongside this, generative AI will continue to transform industries such as healthcare and content creation by enabling personalized automation and more intelligent processes.Cybersecurity will also see a major shift, with AI-powered threat detection playing a crucial role in combating increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. Industry-specific AI models, which are specialized artificial intelligence systems designed to address the unique needs of sectors like finance, healthcare, and manufacturing, will further accelerate AI adoption by providing tailored solutions.Spatial computing, which merges digital and physical environments through Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, is set to redefine human-computer interaction, particularly in gaming, training, and entertainment. Robots capable of performing adaptive tasks and collaborating with humans will lead the charge in automation. Meanwhile, Quantum computing, which leverages quantum mechanics to perform complex calculations at unprecedented speeds, is still in its early stages but is expected to advance toward real-world applications, transforming various industries.Alongside these advances, the rapid adoption of cloud computing, which provides Internet-based computing services, along with 5G technology, autonomous vehicles, and wearables, will continue to drive progress. Edge computing will also gain momentum as it processes data closer to its source, reducing latency and enhancing real-time decision-making.Besides, the rising demand for processors used in enterprise laptops and data center servers, as well as the increasing adoption of consumer electronics, industrial tools and equipment, and networking and communication products, have been contributing significantly to global semiconductor sales. According to the Semiconductor Industry Association, global semiconductor sales reached $56.5 billion in January 2025, marking a 17.9% increase from $47.9 billion in January 2024.

Electric airplane makes first landing at NYC's JFK Airport
STORY: :: June 3, 2025 :: New York :: This is the first time a passenger-carrying electric airplane has landed at a New York airport :: Kyle Clark, Founder and CEO, Beta Technologies "So this is a 100% electric airplane that just flew from East Hampton to JFK with passengers on it, which was a first for the New York Port Authority, for the New York area, and we covered 70 odd nautical miles in 35 minutes." :: Beta Technologies' flight showcases the quiet, low-cost potential of electric air travel "The most transformative thing is that you drastically reduce the cost of flying. Charging this thing up and flying out here cost us about $8 in fuel, right? Of course, you have to pay for the pilot, gotta pay for airplane, but fundamentally, it's way less expensive. It's quieter, so the communities are happier. It's a simpler aircraft, so you're quiet, you're accessible, and people love flying it. If you asked the passengers how they liked it, we could talk to each other the whole time. There's no propeller in front of you, there's no jet engine. It's just a quiet whooshing across the plane." The flight to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport flew 45 minutes with a pilot and four people, they said in a statement. Transportation companies, including airlines, are looking to develop services using electric battery-powered aircraft that can take off and land vertically to ferry travelers for short city trips, allowing them to beat traffic. In October, the Federal Aviation Administration finalized comprehensive training and pilot certification rules for flying air taxis, calling it "the final piece in the puzzle for safely introducing these aircraft in the near term." In the same month, Beta raised $318 million in equity capital to fund production, certification, and commercialization of electric aircraft, bringing its total raised value to more than $1 billion. The Vermont-based company was founded in 2017.

Scoda Tubes IPO: Shares lists flat at Rs 140 on NSE following 53.78x IPO subscription
By Aditya Bhagchandani Published on June 4, 2025, 10:00 IST Shares of Gujarat-based Scoda Tubes debuted flat on the NSE at ₹140 apiece, aligning exactly with the upper end of its IPO price band of ₹130–₹140. The lackluster debut comes despite strong subscription numbers, with the ₹220-crore IPO seeing 53.78 times oversubscription overall. The issue, entirely a fresh equity offering with no offer for sale (OFS), received robust demand across categories. The Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) segment was subscribed 69.51 times, the Non-Institutional Investors (NII) portion saw 113.03 times subscription, and the Retail Individual Investors (RII) segment was booked 19.40 times. Despite the overwhelming response during the bidding phase, the stock's flat listing and sluggish demand on the exchange reflect cautious investor sentiment post-listing. At the time of listing, order book data shows over 3.99 lakh shares available for sale at ₹140, while buy bids remain thin, leading to no immediate price movement. Scoda Tubes specializes in the manufacturing of stainless-steel tubes and pipes, catering to EPC and industrial clients in sectors like oil and gas, power, chemicals, and fertilizers. Proceeds from the IPO are earmarked for capacity expansion, working capital needs, and general corporate purposes. Monarch Networth Capital acted as the book-running lead manager for the issue.
