Great company. The go-to people, and they actually walk the walk on AI. Even if we go into a recession, this business is very sticky. Price target of $315.50, but he wouldn't be surprised if it goes higher. Yield is around 1.6%.

Sort of quasi businesses where you would see some capital spending. They act like the market and have the same beta, but has outperformed the S&P. Chart shows a nice, brilliant trend. They are connected with pretty much every company you could see out there. (Analysts’ price target is $$133.50.)
