At its cloud computing division, the company is helping customers customize, build, and deploy their own artificial intelligence (AI) models and tools through its Bedrock and SageMaker platforms and then run them on its infrastructure

But it goes beyond that, with Amazon having developed its own custom chips for AI training and inference, giving it a cost advantage

Another behind-the-scenes area where Amazon is a market leader is robotics

These robots aren't just moving boxes, they are detecting damaged goods, navigating tight aisles, and even fixing themselves

Meanwhile, the company recently introduced its DeepFleet AI model to coordinate the movement of its entire fleet of robots in order to time and boost throughput

The company is also using AI to create better dery routes and make it easier for drivers to find difficult drop-off locations within large apartment or office complexes

All of this is making Amazon more efficient and should lead to strong earnings growth in the years ahead

Its portfolio of networking components -- which consists of Ethernet switches, digital signal cessing, network interface cards, and optical receivers -- is needed for moving data across massive AI clusters

These chips can offer better efficiency and performance than off-the-shelf graphics cessing units (GPUs), and Broadcom has become the primary partner for several top companies that are creating their own custom AI ASICs

That's a big potential growth opportunity for the company in the years ahead

The company is using its Llama AI model to drive higher engagement across Facebook and Instagram by displaying more relevant content, increasing personalization, and adding interactive features

At the same time, Meta's new AI tools are imving both ad creativity and targeting, leading to better ad performance

In addition, Meta has two new monetization opportunities emerging

Between the better monetization of its core platforms and new opportunities with WhatsApp and Threads, Meta has a solid growth outlook over the next several years

Best of all, this would not cannibalize existing sales, since Philip Morris doesn't sell cigarettes in the U

What really sets these ducts apart, though, are their unit economics

Zyn is 6 times more fitable than traditional cigarettes, while Iqos is more than twice as fitable

In addition, Philip Morris tends to use local manufacturing, which shields it from any tariffs

With global cigarette sales still holding up outside the U. , Philip Morris is a rare growth stock in a defensive industry

While some celebrity deals flop, this one could be transformational

Increased distribution is one of the surest ways to increase growth, and e

Will have a long runway of getting Rhode ducts onto retail shelfs

The deal also diversifies e

Into prestige skincare and cosmetics, complementing its mass-market cosmetics base

That should boost margins and expand its reach to a slightly more affluent demographic

While the company will face tariff headwinds, the Rhode deal should help power strong growth in the years ahead
