I'd Rather Bet on AI's Electric Bill Than Its Chips. Here's Why.

Rather than betting on which AI chip company will dominate, the author advocates for investing in electricity and utility stocks. Using a 'picks-and-shovels' investment strategy, he argues that regardless of which chipmaker wins the AI race, all AI systems require reliable electricity. He recommends utility stocks like NextEra Energy, Southern Company, Brookfield Renewable Partners, and Black Hills as safer bets that benefit from AI growth while providing dividend income.
