AI Chipmaker Stock Sell-Off: Here Are My Top 2 Semiconductor Stocks to Buy Now
Right now could be a great opportunity to get in on AI chip stocks before they return to growth.
In January, China's DeepSeek AI sparked a sell-off in artificial intelligence (AI) stocks after sharing breakthroughs in developing highly efficient training and inference algorithms for large language models. In other words, DeepSeek's AI models showed maybe big tech companies don't have to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on the most advanced GPUs available for their data centers.
The sell-off accelerated recently after Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) reported earnings and President Donald Trump imposed additional tariffs on China with new tariffs on Mexico and Canada. While Nvidia's earnings results beat analysts' published expectations, investors weren't fully reassured that DeepSeek's efforts and the uncertain economic environment wouldn't slow down Nvidia's rapid growth.
Many other semiconductor stocks have seen their share prices decline along with Nvidia's recently. A couple of those stocks look particularly appealing at these lower prices. These are my top two semiconductor stocks to buy now.
