Artificial intelligence continued to be a driving force behind stock market returns in 2024. Here are some of the stocks that have benefited the most.

A rate-cutting campaign by the Federal Reserve, a resilient economy and strong corporate earnings provided another solid backdrop for the stock market in 2024. After a stellar 2023, it was a great year for growth stocks in the software space like Palantir Technologies and AppLovin after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite confirmed new uptrends in early November 2023 with one-day gains of more than 1.

But investors looking to add some AI stocks to their portfolio have plenty of other options. And two other companies look far more attractive than the richly valued Palantir. In fact, I predict both will be worth more than Palantir by the end of 2025, as a result of strong relative price performance to 2024's big winner.

Seemingly overnight, artificial intelligence became a major growth industry. The AI boom is driving demand for semiconductors, which are crucial components in AI systems. Two compelling semiconductor companies to consider are Wolfspeed (NYSE: WOLF) and Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD).

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing industries worldwide, fueling growth and innovation. Investors seeking to harness this momentum may explore AI-focused ETFs, Global X (BOTZ), Robo Global Robotics and Automation (ROBO),

Two of the hottest artificial intelligence (AI) stocks heading into 2025 are Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) and SoundHound AI (NASDAQ: SOUN). Both stocks had a phenomenal 2024, with Palantir's stock up almost 400% and SoundHound AI's gaining nearly 900%.
