Magnificent 7 Or Bust? Chamath Palihapitiya Says Mega-Cap Stocks Approach 'Heady' Valuation — Explains Why So Much Money Sits On Sidelines
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Chamath Palihapitiya, known as the SPAC King, commented on the high valuations of the 'Magnificent Seven' mega-cap tech stocks, which include NVDA, MSFT, META, TSLA, AMZN, AAPL, and GOOGL/GOOG. He suggests that investing in the Nasdaq100 Equal-Weighted index could be less risky than a market-cap weighted index due to lower concentration in these stocks. Palihapitiya also noted the risks associated with some companies in the equal-weighted index, such as loss-making companies and those needing to refinance debt at potentially high costs. The Direxion NASDAQ-100 Equal Weighted Index Shares (QQQE) ETF, which tracks the Nasdaq 100 Equal-Weighted Index, was mentioned with a slight increase in its price.
