One of the firm’s next-generation internet ETFs benefited from holdings in companies involved in innovative technology and outperformed broad global stock indexes in the third quarter. The fund’s year-to-date performance is 16.81%, outperforming its category by 1.59 percentage points year-to-date.
In light of this trend, technology reporter Kate Rooney, appearing on CNBC’s “The Exchange,” revealed how Wall Street is trying to profit from the AI boom by using AI itself. The new world of generative AI is starting a “hedge fund arms race,” according to Rooney. Today’s modern versions of AI are better than human traders in many ways. They learn from their mistakes and become smarter in the process, ultimately minimizing human intervention. Add to this the rise of OpenAI and Anthropic, and these “off-the-shelf” models tend to be cheaper.
Additionally, while human traders may be competent, they often get emotional and tend to make mistakes. This is why Intelligent Alpha CEO Doug Clinton believes that “lack of emotion” is AI’s strength, or “superpower.” That said, the show will discuss how hedge funds are currently turning to AI to “stay ahead of the market,” and how the use of AI will ultimately help improve decision-making on the ground. I made it clear. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic have raised significant capital to date, but ultimately need enterprise clients to scale. Wall Street is an ideal environment because of its reliance on data and analytics.

Intelligent Alpha has launched a first-of-its-kind ETF named after famous stock trader Jesse Livermore. This ETF uses OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, and Google’s Gemini to build a global stock portfolio. Companies participating in AI could gain an advantage with a price tag in the millions of dollars, according to Clinton.
“What this does is it adds intelligence to the index, which by definition is like a set of rules that are not smart. Take that emotion away from the active aspects that we are caught up in. As you know, we make mistakes and sometimes they compound. By solving these two problems, I think AI has the potential to really capture a lot of value in terms of assets flowing into these new AI-powered funds.” – Intelligent Alpha CEO
