Richard Croft Global X Robotics & AI ETF BOTZ-Q BUY Nov 09, 2018

A great ETF. Put some money in. Trump’s strategies are misguided. Factories are going to have more robotics in them, and people are going to have to learn to use them.
$19.950

You might be interested:

BUY

Very highly talked space: robotics and AI. Very volatile. Many small cap. Long-term this is the right space. Like the name but be careful about the volatility.

COMMENT

BOTZ vs. ROBO: The difference is that ROBO is an equal-weighted ETF and BOTZ is market-cap weighted. ROBO you get more mid- and small-cap, with maybe a better long-term return. But essentially both ETFs are very similar.

BUY

AI is a very unique sector of the economy and a great up and comer. An aggressive play. Don’t put a lot of money in it given the risk.

HOLD

It looks good with a base just below $22. It has $24 written on it. Don't sell it. Wait. It's been a nice trading range above $22.

BUY
What A.I. stock? Now, it's about machine-learning and algos. Patterns. The faster the chips become, the more they will grasp patterns. Difficult to find a pure play in this space, though he invests in it. The space is volatile, so he relies on BOTZ, the ETF, which covers robotics and A.I.
COMMENT
Any recommendation on how to capitalize on the AI market? Long term obviously this space looks promising. There are many ETF and ways to play this space. It is down 20% over the last year. You have o be very careful about valuations.
RISKY
10-year horizon If you're worried that robots will take your job, use this ETF as a hedge. In Canada, you can get the similar RBOT which may be easier for investors holding Canadian dollars. Robotics will take over the industrial landscape. This will be very volatile because speculators are watching the AI space.
COMMENT

Medical robotics? He does not know TMD-T well. He plays the space through and ETF of BOTZ-Q. He prefers ISRG-Q, if you wanted an individual holding.

RISKY

Good exposure to A.I. boom and robotics bubble.
Risky bet in tech space.
Not good for defensive investors.
Not any yield, but provides opportunity for large capital gains.
