Ives: “Skeptics of Tech Rally Will Be Proven Wrong (Again)”

The S&P 500 fell yesterday, pulled down by Big Tech stocks as traders dumped AI names. Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives says they’re wrong.

“Skeptics of Tech Rally Will Be Proven Wrong (Again),” Ives headlined an analyst note this morning, telling investors that worrying over sky-high valuations and tariffs risks is missing the forest for the trees.

“This tech bull market in our view is being fueled by the biggest transformational tech spending cycle in the last 40 years... the AI Revolution,” he said. “We are still in the early days of the AI Revolution as the use cases are just starting to massively expand as more companies recognize the value creation being driven by a handful of tech companies led by the Godfather of AI Jensen and Nvidia.” When Nvidia reports earnings next week, Ives expects to see that “demand to supply is 10:1 for Nvidia’s golden chips.”

Ives expects the tech bull cycle to be “well intact” for at least two or three more years. “We view tech sell-offs like yesterday as opportunities to own the core winners,” he wrote.

Microsoft is reportedly building a super app to tame product sprawl — and finally crack mobile

Super apps are very 2010s, but they might be the future for Microsoft. The enterprise giant is working on combining its sprawling and often confusing product suite into a single super app expected by late summer, Fortune reports.

By unifying the tools, Microsoft is hoping that the massive popularity of some of its offerings — particularly GitHub Copilot — will rub off on its other, slower-growing products.

The tool will merge its coding assistant GitHub Copilot, its chat function Copilot, its Copilot Cowork tool, and a new agentic workflow called Autopilot. The move, known internally as “Delivering one Copilot,” will have the dual purpose of simplifying Microsoft’s fragmented desktop AI offerings and finally helping the office software giant gain a foothold on mobile, where competing tools have dominated.

Microsoft is taking a page from frenemy OpenAI’s playbook. In March, OpenAI announced plans for its own desktop super app to combine ChatGPT, Codex, and its Atlas browser into one central workstation.

Forty-two is the answer to life, the universe, and everything in Douglas Adams’ classic “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” It’s also the number of unsupervised Robotaxis Tesla has on the road in Texas, the only state where it’s operating autonomous service, according to records from a newly required government database in the state.

That’s much lower than CEO Elon Musk had hoped, as the company struggles to ready its camera-only autonomous vehicles for commercial scale. In 2025, Musk said that the service would be available to “half the population of the US by the end of the year.”

Even smaller competition has more: Avride has 317 and Nuro has 47. Meanwhile, Tesla’s chief rival, Alphabet subsidiary Waymo, has 577 in operation in the state. Nationwide, Waymo’s fleet currently numbers more than 3,000.

Unfortunately for Tesla, figuring out how to actually scale its robotaxi fleet remains the ultimate question.

Report: Microsoft tries to get back in the AI coding game with new model

Microsoft wants to fight its way back into the AI coding field by releasing a new model next week at its annual Microsoft Build developer conference, The Information reports.

The company is expected to announce a new family of models as Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman seeks to shore up the company’s own AI offerings and gradually wean it off OpenAI’s technology over the remainder of their $13 billion partnership.

Microsoft was initially well positioned to meet software developers with AI-enhanced tools. It owns GitHub, the most popular platform for hosting and sharing code, and GitHub’s Copilot AI-powered coding tool was released months before OpenAI’s ChatGPT debuted in 2022.

But it fumbled one of the biggest first-mover advantages in history as Anthropic’s Claude Code, OpenAI’s Codex, and Cursor rolled out coding tools that developers loved.
