This earnings season, I’ll focus on how AI capital spending converts into real returns. With mega-caps set to pour over $1 trillion into AI by 2029, investors want proof of monetization, not just infrastructure expansion. I’ll be watching which companies can turn AI investments into measurable productivity gains or new revenue streams.

My pick is $Microsoft(MSFT)$ and $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$ — both at the core of the AI ecosystem with clearer profit paths. In contrast, firms where AI remains a cost center could face margin pressure if ROI lags. I’ll also keep an eye on guidance revisions, as they’ll reveal whether optimism around AI spending is starting to cool.

With the VIX $Cboe Volatility Index(VIX)$ above 23, I’m leaning toward selling volatility via iron condors or strangles on stable names like $Apple(AAPL)$ or $Procter & Gamble(PG)$ . I expect Q3 earnings growth to exceed 13% again, but the real story is how firms guide future AI returns.
