"I think this industrial resurgence is being driven by a real need for investment, whereas with the tech bubble, there was a lot of spare capacity. Today, AI-driven companies need more power on the grid and more manufacturing capability, and that’s what this business spending is about." Alger Director of Market Strategy Brad Neuman discusses the new industrial renaissance and what that may mean for investors.

"We are in a new world and that requires a completely different mindset. The question isn’t if you’re adopting now, it is the pace of adoption and how quickly can you actually cross this chasm."

"We think one of the most exciting non-U.S. inefficient areas is in smaller caps, because in small caps, you're layering on the geographic opportunity as well."

"The inefficiencies outside the U.S. are significant. International markets are more fragmented and offer opportunities that are very exciting. Even when macros are against us, we’re finding businesses that we want to own." The Alger Redwood team takes a deep dive into international opportunities that U.S. investors may be missing.

"I like to say when software writes software, innovation becomes exponential. And I think we’ve never lived through exponential innovation as a society."

"Analysis requires a mindset and an approach that is willing to handle lots of uncertainty and is able to imagine outcomes that are both very good and very bad and not necessarily linear."

"I can’t think of an industry that won’t be impacted by artificial intelligence. And it will be a lot easier to roll out than electricity, the internal combustion engine or even the Internet." Alger Director of Market Strategy, Brad Neuman, CFA, discusses why he considers AI the most important innovation of our lifetime, and how most businesses will need to adopt it to remain viable.
