Fourth Industrial Revolution

Both Wood and Ives have publicly talked about the multi-trillion opportunity for AI and the companies associated with the sector.

AI is one of the big ideas from Ark's annual report. AI stocks find their way across the five ETFs mentioned above and inside the Ark Genomic ETF (BATS:ARKG), although that one has no overlap with Ives' picks.

Ark says performance per dollar of AI compute could improve by 1,000x by 2030.

Ives has discussed the "fourth industrial revolution" multiple times and assigned multi-billion or trillion-dollar opportunities for AI among several top stock picks like Tesla.

Earlier this year, Ives highlighted the Donald Trump administration and the AI Action Plan as being a key to AI growth going forward.

"We have barely scratched the surface of this 4^th Industrial Revolution now playing out around the world led by the Big Tech stalwarts," Ives said previously.

Wedbush launched the Wedbush AI Revolution ETF earlier this year to give investors exposure to the top AI stock picks for the sector from Ives, who is one of the most well-known analysts.

"The Dan Ives Wedbush AI Revolution ETF seeks to capitalize on the rapid growth of artificial intelligence by investing in companies poised to lead the AI transformation. This fund offers investors exposure to a diversified portfolio of firms at the cutting edge of AI technology," the ETF's website reads.
