    The Invisible Hand of AI: 3 Robotics Stocks Shaping the Future

    The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite are back in familiar territory, jumping to record highs yesterday. Led by a soft April U.S. consumer inflation print, Mr. Market is now pricing in a couple of rate cuts before 2024 draws to a close. With the market’s risk appetite growing again, it’s an opportune time to load up on the best robotics stocks to buy. In some of my recent articles, I’ve highlighted AI and robotics as powerful multi-year trends disrupting industries for the long haul. Particularly with robots, we are likely to see a shift from being programmed to becoming learning systems. These step changes will lead to massive advancements in how robots communicate and interpret the physical world. Additionally, computer use will expand dramatically in a scenario where natural programming language becomes common. These groundbreaking advancements will propel robotics into widespread use as they evolve remarkably. Robotics Stocks to Buy: Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) Source: Sundry Photography / Shutterstock.com Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG ) is one of the top bellwethers in robotics, with a leadership position in robotics-assisted surgery.
