Thorne: Software to Outperform, 'Just Not Now' & Gold, Silver Trade to Cool

After Microsoft (MSFT) sold-off following earnings, Jim Thorne says markets are currently favoring hardware as the AI infrastructure buildout continues. However, he makes the case for software to outperform on hardware's back foot. Jim still labels Nvidia (NVDA) as the dominant AI company and favors it moving forward. As for other opportunities, he likes Bitcoin at its current price and expects the cryptocurrency to see more inflows as the gold and silver trade cools.
