According to CoinTelegraph, eToro’s latest data shows that during the sharp decline in AI and tech stocks in Q1 2026, investors in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) bucked the trend by increasing their positions—particularly in AI infrastructure and software stocks such as ServiceNow (+125%), Super Micro Computer (+65%), Adobe (+54%), and Oracle (+38%). Regarding crypto-related equities, Strategy Inc. remained the eighth-largest holding, reflecting investors’ continued exposure to crypto assets. Deutsche Bank’s report dated April 13 noted that this conflict is more likely to strengthen—not weaken—Gulf-region demand for AI, cybersecurity, and sovereign digital infrastructure.
