Growing use of smart technologies and the rise in demand for GPUs in enterprises have boosted the tech hardware industry. Therefore, it could be wise for investors to buy tech hardware stocks Dell Technologies (DELL), HP (HPQ), and Quantum (QMCO) this month. Read more.

As June unfolds, the tech hardware market presents outstanding opportunities for investors to leverage the rapid growth of smart city projects and advancements in GPU technology. Therefore, I think tech hardware stocks Dell Technologies Inc. (DELL), HP Inc. (HPQ), and Quantum Corporation (QMCO) might be ideal buys.

The computer hardware market is expected to be aided by rapid growth in investments in smart city projects in many countries globally. With the integration of hardware components such as sensors, cameras, and advanced analytics, cities can effectively monitor and manage traffic patterns, leading to smoother commutes and improved mobility for residents.

The computer hardware market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.6% to reach $909.8 billion in 2027.

Moreover, modern GPUs are very efficient at manipulating computer graphics and image processing, and their highly parallel structure makes them more efficient than general-purpose CPUs for algorithms where the processing of large blocks of data is done in parallel.

As key players in the industry adopt effective strategies, the market is expected to expand further, presenting numerous opportunities for advancement. As of 2023, the global Graphic Processing Unit market is estimated at $22.22 billion, and is anticipated to reach $40.10 billion in 2028, at a CAGR of 10.3%.
