Investor’s Business Daily (July 19)

“Magnificent Seven stocks dumped more than $1.3 trillion in market value in a week…. Former do-no-wrong AI company Nvidia (NVDA) is the No. 1 culprit” behind the “epic implosion.” Shares in Nvidia “have plunged more than 11% from July 10. That effectively wiped out more than $417.3 billion in shareholders’ wealth — or roughly a third — of the Mag 7’s dollar-value loss in that time.”

This has led to slower growth that is reflected in roughly 2% GDP growth in the last two quarters…. The strong evidence is that trade policy is the main growth culprit.”
