Overall market sentiment weakened after President Donald Trump’s announcement that he would impose export curbs to China made with US software.
According to a report by Reuters, the restrictions would impact a broad range of goods including laptops and jet engines, among others.
The retaliation followed Beijing’s newly imposed policy to curb exports of rare earth products, with foreign entities now required to obtain export licenses.
Tensions aside, CleanSpark, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLSK) earlier this week announced progress on its diversification program, with the appointment of Jeffrey Thomas as senior vice president for AI Data Centers.
Thomas brings more than four decades of global experience in emerging technologies and data center infrastructure development, and would support CleanSpark, Inc.’s (NASDAQ:CLSK) goal of expanding into AI servicing.
While we acknowledge the potential of CLSK as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
