What's been the most important driver behind the continued bull market? A good case can be made that it's artificial intelligence (AI). Each member of the so-called "Magnificent Seven" stocks is heavily focused on AI.

Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2025 revolved around AI. If not, it’s all that exhibitors could show. Talking about the highlight of the show, it was undoubtedly the keynote from Jensen Huang.

Two hot stocks in this sector are Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR) and SoundHound AI (NASDAQ: SOUN). Palantir's shares had surged by more than 300% over the prior 12 months, while SoundHound had skyrocketed by 600%.

Stock splits, which occur when a company divides its existing shares into multiple shares, effectively increasing the outstanding shares while maintaining the same market capitalization, have been all the rage on Wall Street over the past few years,

Stock splits were a major market theme in 2024, with some of the world's biggest names joining the list. Companies across sectors, from Walmart to Chipotle Mexican Grill, launched such operations last year.

Right now, Palantir is worth roughly $160 billion. However, I think there are a couple of AI stocks that could surpass Palantir in value by 2030. Those two candidates are Snowflake ( SNOW 1.88%) and CrowdStrike ( CRWD -1.76%).
