Seven of the world’s largest tech companies, which have already been experiencing a brutal quarter, were hit with another blow after U.S. President Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs set to disrupt their supply chains. While the Magnificent Seven had a stellar run in 2024, will they be able to sustain the rally in 2025 on the back of Trump’s tariffs? For answers, we’ll turn to Dan Ives, Managing Director at Wedbush Securities.
