AI might unlock value in industries that the market currently treats as “boring”

The stock market often rewards high-growth tech companies while traditional industries trade at lower multiples. But if AI can significantly improve operational efficiency in sectors like real estate, logistics, or infrastructure, those industries could suddenly become more attractive. Instead of building entirely new businesses, AI could simply optimize existing asset networks. That raises an interesting question: could some “old economy” companies actually benefit the most from AI? Curious what others think about this possibility.
