Speaking <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/ai-adopters-stocks-to-buy-beneficiaries-pricing-power-morgan-stanley-2025-1#home-depot-1">with</a> Business Insider earlier this month, Huberty pointed out that businesses with strong pricing power, those capable of maintaining or increasing their prices due to high demand, will witness the most significant impact on their profits. 
&#8220;Pricing power will allow the&nbsp;companies to retain the productivity&nbsp;that they experience on the&nbsp;back of these investments and&nbsp;not have to pass that&nbsp;on to the customer,&#8221; she elaborated.

<h3>Why Insider Transactions Are Key in Investment Decisions</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>A Closer Look at Important Transaction Codes</h3>
For <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a>, a primary focus lies on transactions occurring in the open market, as indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

<h3>Navigating the Impact of Insider Transactions on Investments</h3>
Insightful as they may be, insider transactions should be considered alongside a thorough examination of other investment criteria.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Exploring Key Transaction Codes</h3>
Examining transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> often concentrate on those unfolding in the open market, meticulously detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

케이티 허버티(Katy Huberty)는 모건 스탠리의 글로벌 리서치 책임자로, 인공지능(AI) 도입으로 인해 상당한 이점을 얻을 가능성이 있는 20개의 주식을 주목했다.
무슨 일이 있었나: 허버티는 현재 AI 도입을 위한 &#8220;전환점&#8221;에 있다고 언급했다. 그녀는 AI를 활용하여 수익을 증대시키는 기업들이 상당한 혜택을 누릴 준비가 되어 있다고 강조했다.
허버티는 이번 달 초 <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/ai-adopters-stocks-to-buy-beneficiaries-pricing-power-morgan-stanley-2025-1#home-depot-1">비즈니스 인사이더</a>와의 인터뷰에서 강력한 가격 결정력을 가진 기업, 즉 높은 수요로 인해 가격을 유지하거나 인상할 수 있는 기업들이 가장 큰 수익성 향상을 경험할 것이라고 지적했다.
그녀는 &#8220;가격 결정력은 기업들이 이러한 투자로 인한 생산성 향상을 고객에게 전가하지 않고 유지할 수 있게 해 줄 것&#8221;이라고 설명했다.
또한, 허버티는 그녀의 팀이 고객 노트에서 작성한 주식 목록을 언급했다. 이 주식들은 모두 AI를 도입하고 높은 가격 결정력을 가진 기업들로, 시가총액이 200억 달러 이상이다. 목록에는 홈디포(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>), 써모 피셔 사이언티픽(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMO#NYSE">TMO</a>), 인튜이티브 서지컬(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISRG#NASDAQ">ISRG</a>), 디어 앤 컴퍼니(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>), 스포티파이 테크놀로지(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>), 메르카도리브레(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MELI#NASDAQ">MELI</a>), 메리어트 인터내셔널(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAR#NASDAQ">MAR</a>), 힐튼 월드와이드(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>), 파카(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PCAR#NASDAQ">PCAR</a>), 슐럼버거 NV(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLB#NYSE">SLB</a>), 존슨 컨트롤스 인터내셔널 PLC(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JCI#NYSE">JCI</a>), 엑슨 엔터프라이즈(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXON#NASDAQ">AXON</a>), 쿠팡(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPNG#NYSE">CPNG</a>), 베이커 휴즈(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BKR#NASDAQ">BKR</a>), 익스피리언 PLC, 델타 항공(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), 아이덱스 래버러토리스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" style="font-size: revert;" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IDXX#NASDAQ">IDXX</a>), 유나이티드 에어라인 홀딩스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" style="font-size: revert;" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UA#NASDAQ">UA</a>) 및 할리버튼(NYSE:<a class="ticker" style="font-size: revert;" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAL#NYSE">HAL</a>) 등이 포함되어 있다.
왜 중요한가요: AI 도입은 최근 몇 년간 뜨거운 주제가 되었으며, 많은 산업에서 비즈니스 운영을 혁신하고 수익성을 높일 수 있는 잠재력을 인식하고 있다.
허버티가 이러한 20개 주식을 지적한 것은 비즈니스 환경에서 AI의 중요성이 커지고 있음을 강조한다. AI 기술을 성공적으로 활용하는 기업들은 경쟁 우위를 얻을 수 있으며, 특히 강력한 가격 결정력을 가진 기업들이 그렇다.
이러한 발전은 투자 전략의 변화를 시사할 수 있으며, 투자자들이 강력한 AI 도입을 가진 기업들을 유망한 투자 기회로 보게 될 가능성이 있다.
