Don’t expect another wave of meme madness to save AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC).

The artificial intelligence story has been explosive, creating substantial opportunities for some of the best semiconductor stocks.

AI’s rally has also fueled a strong rally in the other pockets of the market. Overall, the S&P 500 hit a fresh record high in June amid an overarching AI optimism.

Recent top stock upgrades from Wall Street analysts can often mean compelling long-term opportunities. When a widely-followed analyst raises the rating or price target on a company, investors pay attention.

After the big crash of 2022, growth stocks have staged a gradual recovery. The correction was in-sync with tight monetary policies as central banks globally focused on curbing inflation.
