Thatcher: NVDA Now a Value Pick; Bullish on MSFT & GOOGL, SPX Equal-Weight Rally


Ted Thatcher says Nvidia is becoming a value stock, backs Microsoft and Alphabet, and expects a broader S&P 500 equal-weight rally beyond big tech.

What stands out

Ted Thatcher argues Nvidia is morphing from a high-flying growth story into a relative value pick as skeptics question AI froth, and he still backs Microsoft and Alphabet because of cloud and full-stack AI advantages. He frames a broader market call: the S&P 500 equal-weight index should rally as more non-Mag-7 names catch up, not just the handful of mega-cap winners. The clip is notable because a strategist known for macro and stock-picking is betting on dispersion, more winners outside the concentrated top of the index.
