- Apple Is the Top Performing Mag 7 Stock This Year
- Apple is Now the Top-Performing Magnificent 7 Stock in 2026. Here’s why it’s Beating NVIDIA, Tesla, and Amazon
Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) has been the best-performing Magnificent Seven stock in 2026, outperforming NVIDIA (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOGL), Meta Platforms (META) and Tesla (TSLA). The text provided is mostly author biography and podcast promotion and does not give specific reasons for the rally.
- The Magnificent 7 stocks are seeing stunning declines
Seven major tech stocks (Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Tesla, Meta and Alphabet) are trading well below their 52-week highs. Meta and Alphabet are effectively in bear markets, down more than 20%, while Tesla is off 19.2%, Amazon 15.1% and Nvidia 12.2%. The article says Meta, Alphabet, Amazon and Tesla fell after earnings showed pressured free cash flow amid aggressive AI spending, while Nvidia faced fears that hyperscalers will pull back in 2027. Apple and Microsoft held up for company-specific reasons: Microsoft posted positive free cash flow and strong Azure sales growth, while Apple is seen as a cash-rich hardware play rather than an AI play. BTIG strategist Jonathan Krinsky said there is too much weakness in tech for the market to ignore.

- Gold surges on evening of Nov 4 after US election results
Gold prices rose nearly 3% in the Nov 4 session to above 4,040 USD/ounce as the US dollar weakened after Democrats' decisive win in the US midterm elections. At 10 p.m. Vietnam time, spot gold was up 2.7% at 4,036 USD/ounce, heading for its biggest daily gain since August 19. Hamad Hussain of Capital Economics said the Democratic victory appears to be lifting gold as investors grow more worried about the US fiscal outlook. Democrats won control of both the Senate and House, a result that reflects strong voter backlash against President Donald Trump. Investors are also watching US jobs data for clues on the Federal Reserve's interest rate path, a factor that significantly affects gold prices.

- SpaceX and Tesla 'need to find the path forward with Texas' on the back of midterm 'Blue Wave'
Tesla (TSLA) and SpaceX (SPCX) shares fell over 2% on Wednesday despite a broad market rally, after Democrats took control of both houses of Congress in a 'Blue Wave' that flipped Texas, home to both companies. Musk spent $224 million backing Texas Republicans, part of at least $446 million he gave to Republican candidates and groups before the vote. Democrat Gina Hinojosa unseated Gov. Greg Abbott to become the first Democratic governor of Texas since 1990, and she has pledged a moratorium on new data center construction in the state, a move that threatens the AI buildout underpinning both stocks. Reports suggest a push to announce a Tesla-SpaceX merger by the first half of 2027, though talks remain exploratory. Wedbush's Dan Ives wrote that Musk 'needs to find the path forward with Texas' after the Democratic wins.

- Analysis: The Democrats have one chance to extract concessions from Trump. Markets will hate it
The Democrats' sweeping midterm win adds a new, unstable dynamic to the debt limit, the biggest political risk to financial markets in the coming year, and the fight is expected to be nastier than ever. Because Democrats hold the leverage, any eventual deal, which many expect to be a compromise, is more likely to increase government spending than lower it. The deficit this year is $1.99 trillion, and according to the Bipartisan Policy Center, the Treasury could hit its borrowing limit by midsummer, though budgeting tactics could push the X-date to the fourth quarter of 2027. Republicans may try to raise the limit in the lame-duck session through reconciliation, but that would require unity from a fractured majority, so the most likely path is a temporary fix negotiated between the incoming Democratic majority and Trump. Aniket Shah of Jefferies said many in the markets underestimate how aggressively Democrats plan to press their case.
