It's also common to draw parallels between the dot-com bubble and today's hype, leading investors to wonder if there's an AI bubble that's about to pop, too. Goldman Sachs' big AI headline of the month is "To buy, or not to buy, that is the question." The note from September 5, led by Peter Oppenheimer, suggests the answer is "to buy" but also to diversify. And the third is the application providers, which are the companies creating services for end users to harness AI. It comes from machine learning or big data workloads that various companies and governments use, Belton noted.

Analysts at major Wall Street banks are getting more cautious on chip darling ASML , raising concerns about the critical chip equipment maker's demand outlook. Earlier this week, investment bank UBS downgraded ASML to "neutral" and cut its price target on the stock to 900 euros ($1,000.78) from 1,050 euros previously. Other Wall Street banks have subsequently come out with their own respective analyses on ASML — and they're more downbeat than they were before. The bank remains bullish on the stock, though, keeping ASML in its top pick for EU semiconductor equipment stocks. UBS cautioned ASML's machines could face a slowdown in demand due to an "architecture shift" to gate all around architecture, or GAA.

An icon of ASML is displayed on a smartphone, with an ASML chip visible in the background. The Dutch government on Friday announced it is expanding export restrictions on advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment, bringing licensing requirements of ASML 's machines under its purview. The changes mean that the Netherlands is effectively taking over from the U.S. on controlling what machines ASML is able to export to other countries. The expanded control comes after the Dutch government last year introduced its first major export restrictions on advanced semiconductor equipment exports. Washington has pressured countries like the Netherlands and others to ramp up export curbs on key chipmaking tools.
