How Far Can The Big Tech Magnificent 7 Go?

“It's like 1995, start of the internet, but it's not like 1999, in terms of the bubble” Daniel Ives, Managing Director of Wedbush Securities.

As reported in the New York Times, since the S&P 500 index hit its latest low in October 2022, Big Tech’s Magnificent 7 have collectively risen nearly 117%, far outpacing the performance of the overall index which is up around 35% in the same period.

With the S&P 500 hitting a new high this week and earnings season on-going, Enterprise Explores the AI revolution and how far Big Tech’s Magnificent 7 can go. Daniel Ives, Managing Director of Wedbush Securities, provides expert insights into earnings forecasts, AI's influence on these tech giants' business models, and the potential for future growth and challenges, including geopolitical tensions and regulatory issues.

Ives also discusses his predictions for Big Tech's activities in 2024, highlighting AI's potential for monetization, alongside possible mergers and acquisitions, particularly in the tech and AI space.
