With artificial-intelligence-related semiconductor stocks flying into low-earth orbit, you may be left wondering if there are alternative opportunities in the space. There are – and they enjoy the highest level of endorsement among Wall Street analysts. We must start, though, with a word of caution.

At first glance, another gangbusters jobs report seems to imply that dividend stocks are irrelevant. It’s all about growth, baby! Well, maybe not.

An expected investing behavior is to chase overvalued stocks from a sector in the limelight. Similarly, investors ignore deeply undervalued stocks from sectors facing temporary headwinds.

Of all the Cloud Czars, the one with the most potential for growth is Amazon.Com (NASDAQ:AMZN). AMZN stock investors should remember this. The question for investors is whether Amazon will achieve that potential. Amazon is much more than the world’s second-largest retailer after Walmart (NYSE:WMT).
