Take a position on generative AI
Artificial intelligence has been steadily growing in usefulness in prominence for years – but in 2023, it exploded with the widespread adoption of tools like ChatGPT and Dall-E.
Now we’ve launched the AI index to give you the chance to take your position on the companies changing the status quo across the world – including Nvidia, Palantir, Altair Engineering and more. Get exposure to the world’s top AI stocks with a single position today.
Quick facts on the AI index
Key AI stocks, revised quarterly on the third Friday of the month in June and December.
What's next for AI shares?
There's little doubt that AI has captured the markets' imagination – but will the AI rally continue as new tech launches, or could this be another dotcom bubble? Only time will tell, which is why taking a fundamental approach can be key to trading successfully.
For now, it looks like there will be some big winners and some big losers as AI gains ground. For traders, this means plenty of opportunity – as well as risk.

Why trade the AI index?
Trading the AI Index offers several benefits for traders looking to gain exposure to the AI trend. Trading a basket of stocks requires less research and is less risky than trading individual stocks by offering you a way to trade the trend of AI through a diversified basket of companies.
Trading individual AI stocks requires more work, but can offer better returns. For example, traders that owned NVIDIA shares have outperformed those holding the AI index this year. However, putting all your eggs in one basket is more risky.
We also offer AI-focused exchange-traded funds, including the LG Artificial Intelligence ETF and the second Global X Robotics Artificial Intelligence ETF.
How to trade the AI index
If you think AI is overrated and is headed for a correction, then you could sell or short the AI index.
If, on the other hand, you see AI growing further, with the companies at the top remaining dominant, then you may want to buy or go long on the AI index.
Remember, as with all our indices, ETFs and shares, our AI charts are easily accessible on any device, and come with technical indicators and drawing tools as standard.
