On September 24, Gil Luria, D.A. Davidson managing director, joined ‘Fast Money’ on CNBC to discuss concerns about value destruction. Luria believes that big tech reaps real returns while others face risks. As several new AI partnerships emerge, the question that comes up is that at what point the companies involved in these deals should be subjected to actual scrutiny regarding what the partnerships mean for their value. Luria stated that scrutiny should begin right now, and distinguished between real companies and marginal players in the AI trade. The real companies, such as the MAG7, have real customers and extremely favorable economics: their cost of capital is likely around 5%, and they are likely earning a 20% return on that capital, which is value-creating.

In contrast, he categorized incremental players as having to borrow at 10% or 12% and only generating mid-single-digit returns. He concluded that this is the equivalent of buying treasuries on margin, which is value-destructive and where the focus should be. He explained that the market began with a core AI trade dominated by players in the MAG7, which have captured most of the value. However, the trade then expanded to these marginal players, which are now trading at higher multiples. In Luria’s view, it doesn’t make any sense for these marginal players to command higher multiples than the real companies building AI.

That being said, we’re here with a list of the 12 oversold tech stocks to invest in.

Fair Isaac Corporation (NYSE:FICO) is one of the oversold tech stocks to invest in. On September 23, FICO announced a new suite of domain-specific GenAI models for the financial services industry, collectively called the FICO Focused Foundation Model for Financial Services/FICO FFM. The FFM is engineered to reduce hallucinations and achieve superior accuracy and trust compared to conventional GenAI models in highly regulated financial environments.

The FICO FFM product offering consists of two core components: the FICO Focused Language Model (FICO FLM) and the FICO Focused Sequence Model (FICO FSM). The models are engineered in-house, custom-built, and trained on curated, domain-specific data sets related to financial services. Unlike large, general-purpose LLMs that require massive compute power, FICO’s focused models require up to 1,000 times fewer resources to train and maintain.

The FICO FLM is built on domain-specific and task-specific contextual data, which drastically reduces the risk of hallucinations since the training data is directly relevant to the business problem. These smaller, more accurate models, which IDC analyst Megha Kumar likened to SLMs, drive a practical approach toward agentic AI and can streamline operations for financial institutions.
