Exploring Three You Might Want to Invest In Before They Become Mythical Creatures

by

In an increasingly whimsical world where artificial intelligence frolics on Wall Street like an over-caffeinated pixie, treasure hunting for bargains can sometimes feel akin to searching for the last donut in a room full of hungry wizards. However, ever so slightly shimmering above the mire of market prices, we find three promising candidates vying for our attention: Taiwan Semiconductor (hereby referred to as TSM for those who enjoy brevity), Adobe, and Alphabet, commonly known as that company you ask when you require immediate knowledge about the color of a dragon’s toenails.

These stocks flaunt price tags that are rather lower than you might expect for entities involved in something as nebulous as AI—equal parts sorcery and mathematics. If discernment in value is your quest, then this triumvirate is certainly a fabulous starting point.

Where do these triad verging on legend stand in the realm of AI?

First up, we have the grand sorcerer of chip-making, Taiwan Semiconductor. Acting as the vital cog in the vast machinery of tech giants like Nvidia and Apple, TSM functions much like a wizard’s apprentice—careful not to upstage its masters while still concocting magic in the form of silicon wafers. Recent scrolls indicate a dazzling 44% increase in revenue during the second quarter, leading some scholars to believe that the wizards behind the curtain might actually know what they’re doing. Management is even projecting a nearly 20% annual growth rate for the next five years, which has the potential to make it the stuff of legend among AI enthusiasts. Truly, TSM occupies a respected perch in the AI clamor.

Next on our enchanted journey is Adobe, the creator of magical tools for crafting visuals fit for the finest scrolls or moving images that might just distract a bard mid-verse. However, worry has begun to gnaw at investors like a starving troll at a banquet table. The rise of generative AI has made many a fortuneteller declare Adobe’s inevitable doom, as if the company were a doomed hero straight out of a tragic ballad.

Yet, we might be jumping the enchanted gun here. Adobe’s not simply sitting in a corner, lamenting its fate; it’s been pouring its arcane resources into developing its own generative AI—Firefly, which binds AI with their time-honored editing tools, allowing creators to maintain a semblance of control, unlike some generative efforts that function rather like a chaotic pixie party gone wrong. With growth consistency akin to the fine line of a spreadsheet, Adobe’s popularity continues to blossom, and perhaps the doom predictions are more melodramatic than warranted.

But if you’re wondering if Adobe is waving a white flag, it might be worth checking again, because it’s still growing like a battle-hardened ox in a field ripe with clover.

Lastly, we turn our gaze to Alphabet, the archvillain of search engines and the benevolent overlord of Google. Investors, cloaked in their pessimistic attire, fear that generative AI spells the end for Google Search. This concern, however, overlooks the resilient fact that for much of the world, Google is as necessary as breakfast tea on a dreary day. The truth, dear reader, is that switching from Google would take something akin to divine intervention—yet unlikely on a Tuesday.

Wielding features that taste like a delightful potion of content and AI, Google has woven this magic into its vast web of search capabilities, likely enough to maintain its throne. Should Google manage to keep its market share substantial, one might expect its fortunes to rise like a well-timed incantation, especially given the deeply discounted price at which it currently trades.

How inexpensive are these bewitching bids?

Alphabet trades at a price lower than several comets’ trajectories, despite its promising prospects.

With the S&P 500 dancing gracefully around 23.8 times expected earnings, Alphabet’s valuation is like a secret recipe that offers generous portions of potential returns.

Adobe, while consistently good, similarly offers itself at 18 times future earnings, which one must admit feels like a bargain compared to the smorgasbord of corporate potential.

Meanwhile, TSM sneaks in slightly pricier, at 25 times earnings. But given its expected growth rate, one could argue that this premium is more akin to a fine wine’s price tag than a roguish bandit’s demand. So, in this perplexing tableau, I declare TSM a tempting prospect for those willing to cross into the world of the financially adventurous.

Thus, brave investors, keep those eyes sharp and those wallets ready, for bargains in the land of AI, while elusive, do exist. 🌟
