AI and Investing: When to Stop Buying AI Stocks
On 2 July 2026, Lombard Odier recommended that investors not overweight AI companies and chipmakers in their portfolios, advising them to hold the tech sector "in line with the market." Nannette Hechler-Fayd'herbe, the bank's EMEA CIO, explained on Bloomberg Television that the call reflects high volatility. She added that the attractive opportunities right now lie beyond the most obvious AI stories.

Investment bank Lombard Odier has issued a new AI recommendation for portfolios: hold the tech sector "in line with the market," without building positions in AI companies beyond their index weights.
What does it mean to hold AI "in line with the market"?
It means the share of AI companies in a portfolio should not exceed their weight in broad stock indices such as the S&P 500 and MSCI World. This is a neutral stance with no increase in bets.
