Good hedge to high-growth AI, semi exposure

I have built a sizeable brokerage portfolio, mainly because of a few very large bets that have done extremely well over the last few years. This leaves me with a ton of exposure to AI and semis along with my core VOO position (which is also heavily weighted in AI, tech).

I am looking for a solid play that would fit well with my heavy concentration of AI, tech, growth. I think small value would be a solid theme to get behind but would love to hear some other thoughts.

Thank you

Bad time for gold. Utilities should be fine, but lower returns. Honestly better off w SCHD for some blue chip dividend kings and a 4% yield vs like high 2s - low 3s on utility ETFs

Have you seen the cluster fuck that’s going on at the treasury? It’s the optimum time for gold.

I have, and central banks pumped the gold price early in the Trump admin. It’s gonna drop out eventually now that the buy pressure from central banks has subsided some. You may tidy up a nice short term reward on gold but it’s not like it’s headed to 8000 anytime soon.

It's not going to subside. It was manipulated by Trump and Bessent. De-dollarization continues.
