Not interested in the "Magnificent Seven"

Does the proverbial safe stock really exist? Do stocks REALLY only go up??

Two years ago I wrote a Rufus piece on the “Quest for the Safe Stock”…explaining how it doesn’t really exist and how the rush into Big Tech could boomerang. It was a tribute to my buddy

Le Shrub

who is now a newsletter writer himself with a massive following.

If you are into Big Tech/Passive Investing, you should read it:

Since then I continued to follow the Big Tech darlings with more pieces on Apple and Microsoft. Apple did indeed peak right around the time I wrote the Rufus piece, but Microsoft has been propelled higher by the Hyperscale/AI trade.

In this ~3 minute voice note to self I share my thoughts on the Mag 7 and touch on the trades that make up the overall Mag 7 trade.

Note that these voice notes are indeed as authentic as it gets and not pre-planned. Hence, I forgot to talk about META!
