Top Funds Gorge On Nvidia, Meta And This Non-AI Sector

This month's list of new buys by the best mutual funds provides more reminders than revelations. Spurred by continued demand for leaders in artificial intelligence, top money managers again bet billions on Magnificent Seven stocks Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta Platforms and Alphabet.

To close out the week, Meta hit a record high, Google stock teased a return to its buy zone and Nvidia came off its lows to hold its 21-day line.

Meanwhile, these leading money managers also gorged on shares of Broadcom, Salesforce.com and Uber Technologies.

These savvy investors further whet their appetite for Chipotle Mexican Grill, maker of the Autocado, which brings robotics to the making of guacamole. They also binged on Netflix, a heavy user of machine learning and other AI technologies.

Financial giant JPMorgan Chase also reserved a seat at this exclusive table.

From Nvidia to Uber, the best mutual fund invested at least $1 billion in each of 15 stocks.
