Given the pace of innovation and the rapid adoption of generative AI technologies, now is an exciting time to be an investor in companies with AI exposure. At Crawford, we can take advantage of these opportunities by identifying individual companies that both meet our quality requirements AND participate in these secular growth markets. We are also aware of the potential of investor expectations to run ahead of reality, and we believe high-quality, large cap companies are the safest way to gain exposure to this trend.

In this episode, we sit down with Aaron Foresman, CFA, our Information Technology Analyst to discuss how we are identifying businesses that can benefit from secular trends in the economy and grow profits and dividends over time. In addition to being available on our website, we are pleased that our podcasts are available on Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever you get your podcasts.
