Goldman Sachs strategists note that asset-heavy companies are outperforming as investors seek refuge from AI-driven disruption. Their analysis shows that capital-intensive stocks, whose value comes from physical assets, have significantly outperformed those reliant on human or digital capital since early 2025. This trend suggests investors are favoring tangible assets amidst concerns about AI’s impact on more “capital light” businesses.
