Norway's sovereign wealth fund, Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM), has significantly shifted its investment strategy towards technology stocks, known as the Magnificent Seven, over the past decade. Initially, in 2014, NBIM's top holdings included companies like Nestle SA, Novartis AG, Apple Inc, Royal Dutch Shell, and BlackRock Inc, reflecting a conservative investment approach. By 2024, the fund's top holdings have transitioned to major tech companies such as Apple, Microsoft Corporation, Alphabet Inc, Amazon.com Inc, and Nvidia Corporation, with these investments representing nearly 13% of its total $822 billion equity allocation. This shift indicates a move towards higher risk for potentially greater returns, amidst a backdrop of high-interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and tech sector optimism.
