Inmarsat Maritime, a Viasat company, has announced that orders for NexusWave have exceeded 1,000-vessels. Following months of rigorous development and testing, the service has gained incredible momentum in its first six months on the market with global customers adopting NexusWave for their fleets. This milestone underscores the global shipping industry's strong appetite for a fully managed, high-speed, bonded connectivity service that combines the power of multiple networks with the convenience of a single provider.
Early adopters such as "K" Line, Anthony Veder, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Solvang, Sallaum Lines, Parlevliet &amp; van der Plas Group and others are already reaping the benefits of transforming their vessels into floating offices and homes.
Inmarsat's NexusWave brings together Global Xpress (GX) Ka-band, low-Earth orbit (LEO), coastal LTE, and resilient L-band services into a seamless, fully managed solution. Inmarsat's unique ‘network-bonding' technology is designed to allow connected applications to harness the aggregate speed and capacity of all available networks simultaneously rather than relying on one at a time.
Recent real-world tests have demonstrated NexusWave's exceptional performance, achieving download speeds of up to 340 megabits per second (Mbps) and upload speeds of up to 80 Mbps. Network availability on vessels has consistently exceeded 99.9%, and video call quality has remained virtually unaffected by the availability or performance of any single network. Inmarsat's solution dynamically adjusts traffic routing to maintain a seamless user experience, even in connectivity hotspots.
Users also benefit from unlimited data, global coverage, and secure-by-design infrastructure, providing complete ‘connected confidence'. For seafarers onboard it means they can enjoy a wide range of applications, including web browsing, streaming, gaming, video and voice calling, messaging, and social media access, providing a ‘home-like' connectivity experience while at sea.

S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices ("S&amp;P DJI"), the world's leading index provider, today announced its plans to collaborate with Centrifuge, a decentralized infrastructure provider specializing in real-world asset (RWA) integration, to enter the fund tokenization space by licensing the S&amp;P 500 Index. This initiative extends the reach of the S&amp;P 500 into onchain investment products and protocols.
&nbsp;
For 125 years and counting, S&amp;P DJI's indices have provided a liquid foundation for increased adoption of index-based investing around the world. By licensing&nbsp;Centrifuge to provide exposure and bring the S&amp;P 500 Index onchain, a blockchain-native investment vehicle will for the first time be built, governed, and accessed directly through Centrifuge's RWA infrastructure, rather than via traditional brokerages. Anemoy Capital, a web3 native asset manager powered by Centrifuge, has been licensed by S&amp;P DJI along with Janus Henderson, a leading global asset manager, as the sub-advisor for the fund, to offer the Janus Henderson Anemoy S&amp;P 500 Index Fund Segregated Portfolio, which is planned to launch later this year subject to regulatory approval.

Nikita Bier's persistence has paid off — the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40482965/angel-investor-nikita-bier-once-displayed-a-giant-painting-of-tim-cook-overlooking-facebook-ceo-mark">entrepreneur behind</a> Gas and tbh is now the new head of product at X, the social network formerly known as Twitter.
What Happened: On Monday, Bier announced on X that he's officially taking the reins as head of product. "Ladies and gentlemen, I&#8217;ve officially posted my way to the top: I&#8217;m joining @X as Head of Product," Bier wrote.

Why It's Important: Bier's appointment signals Musk's ongoing push to transform X into a broader everything app. With a track record of creating viral social experiences — tbh was acquired by Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) in 2017 and Gas by Discord in 2023 — Bier could help X reinvent itself.
He also teased plans to leverage Grok, X's AI assistant, to deliver "hyper-relevant timelines" and help users better understand what's happening on the platform.
Musk acquired Twitter for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/03/44404525/elon-musk-paid-high-price-for-twitter-but-after-years-of-declining-value-x-is-once-again-wor">$44 billion in October 2022</a> and later rebranded it as X, aiming to turn it into an "everything app" as part of his larger vision.

Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) has launched Stock Tokens, a groundbreaking offering that blends traditional stock market investing with blockchain technology, now available to European Union customers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Are Stock Tokens?</h2>
These tokens, derivatives tracked on the blockchain, mirror the prices of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/25/06/46174854/robinhood-just-made-crypto-simpler-and-way-more-powerful">over 200 U.S. stocks and ETFs</a>, including giants like Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), providing exposure to the U.S. market without owning the actual stocks.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How And When Can EU Users Trade Stock Tokens?</h2>
To trade, users must sign up, provide a tax identification number, complete a knowledge check, and agree to the terms.
Stock Tokens are accessible via the Explore tab on Robinhood's app, where users can search by ticker or name, place buy or sell orders in quantities or EUR values, and review orders on the Stock Token Detail Page.
Funds from sales are available for trading instantly but require a one-business-day hold for withdrawals.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Are The Charges To Trade Stock Tokens?</h2>
Stock Tokens are traded in USD but automatically converted from euros with a minimal 0.10% FX fee, ensuring no hidden costs or commissions. Investors can start with just €1, trade 24/5 from Monday 2 a.m. CET/CEST to Saturday 2 a.m. CET/CEST, and even earn dividends when eligible.
The tokens, issued via Arbitrum and soon Robinhood's own Layer 2 blockchain, are held securely by a U.S.-licensed institution under MiFID II regulations.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Do Corporate Actions Affect Stock Tokens?</h2>
Corporate actions like stock splits, mergers, or dividends affect tokens, with Robinhood handling adjustments automatically. Trading may pause during such events, with notifications via banners or pop-ups.
While offering flexibility and low costs, Stock Tokens carry risks, including potential capital loss, requiring users to assess their risk tolerance during onboarding.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can Investors Trade Private Companies Via Stock Tokens?</h2>
Robinhood's initiative, including tokenized private company shares like OpenAI and SpaceX, aims to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46186180/raoul-pal-says-robinhood-letting-users-trade-openai-spacex-through-blockchain-is-democratization-of-finance-end-of-public-vs-private-markets-has-begun">democratize finance</a>, leveraging blockchain for transparency and accessibility.

What Are Stock Tokens And How To Trade Them? Robinhood's New Offering Merges Owning Stocks With Blockchain Tech: Here's How It Works

Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46087914/teslas-europe-sales-slide-for-5th-straight-month-elon-musk-led-ev-giants-market-share-shrinks-to-1-3">European woes</a> continue to plague Elon Musk's EV giant as it recorded a sharp sales decline in Denmark and Sweden during June.
What Happened: Tesla recorded 1,282 new registrations for its vehicles in the country during June, while registrations in Sweden fell 64.4%, according to data sales data obtained by Reuters on Tuesday.
The company's sales in Denmark fell 61.57% in June compared to last year, the report suggested.
Why It Matters: The news comes as Tesla had previously recorded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45739130/elon-musks-tesla-defies-european-slump-with-norway-sales-growth-in-may-model-y-comes-to-the-rescue">strong sales in Norway</a>, largely driven by the new Model Y. However, the company has recorded poor sales figures in several regions throughout the globe. Recently, data revealed that the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46162850/tesla-sales-in-canada-have-dropped-to-nearly-zero-says-researcher-expects-elon-musk-led-ev-giant-may-report-losses-starting-2026">sales in Canada</a> have almost dropped to zero.
Experts like Future Fund LLC's managing director, Gary Black, also paint a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/06/46161226/gary-black-warns-tesla-q2-deliveries-will-disappoint-says-cheaper-models-could-cannibalize-sales-and-see-ideal-re-entry-22-below-current-levels">less-than-ideal picture</a> for the company. The investor said that Tesla's Q2 delivery figures will disappoint people.
Tesla also recently announced the exit of Musk's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46132042/teslas-q2-sales-going-to-s-says-gary-black-after-tsla-north-america-and-europe-chief-omead-afshars-exit">key aide Omead Afshar</a>, who analysts estimate was let go due to the company's poor sales performance for the better part of a year.

Elon Musk-Led Tesla's European Woes Worsen With Sales Down Over 60% In Sweden And Denmark

The U.S. Department of Justice&nbsp;(DOJ) has taken a significant step against North Korea&#8217;s illicit financial activities, which involve remote IT workers operating within American tech firms.
What Happened: The DOJ has announced a series of actions aimed at dismantling North Korea&#8217;s money-making operations, which are conducted by covert remote IT workers within U.S. tech companies. The funds generated are allegedly used to finance North Korea&#8217;s nuclear weapons program and for data and cryptocurrency theft. As per the DOJ, the fraud scheme impacted over 100 U.S. companies.
U.S. Attorney for the District&nbsp;of Massachusetts,&nbsp;Leah B. Foley, stated, &#8220;Thousands&nbsp;of North Korean cyber operatives&nbsp;have been trained and deployed&nbsp;by the regime to blend&nbsp;into the global digital workforce&nbsp;and systematically target U.S. companies.&#8221;
The DOJ&#8217;s crackdown resulted in the arrest and indictment of U.S. national Zhenxing &#8220;Danny&#8221; Wang and Keija Wang who are accused of running a long-standing fraud operation out of New Jersey—one that allegedly generated over $5 million for the North Korean regime. 
They face charges&nbsp;of conspiracy to commit wire&nbsp;fraud, money laundering, and identity&nbsp;theft. Additionally, eight other individuals, including&nbsp;six Chinese nationals and two&nbsp;Taiwanese citizens, have been indicted for their involvement in the scheme.
Five North Korean nationals have been charged with wire fraud and money laundering for allegedly stealing over $900,000 in cryptocurrency from two unidentified companies by using fake or stolen identities, according to the Department of Justice.

Why It Matters: North Korea&#8217;s use of remote IT workers to conduct illicit financial activities has been an ongoing concern. In May 2025, it was reported that&nbsp;Kim Jong Un&#8216;s North Korea was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45706958/kim-jong-uns-north-korea-infiltrates-us-remote-jobs-with-the-help-of-everyday-americans-funneling-17">infiltrating</a> American businesses&nbsp;via remote jobs, with the help of unwitting U.S. citizens. This operation, run by a former waitress turned TikTok personality, saw North Korean workers overseas posing as U.S.-based tech employees and securing jobs at more than 300 American companies, collecting $17.1 million in pay.
Earlier in May, a report by cybersecurity firm DTEX revealed that&nbsp;North Korea&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45488568/fortune-500-companies-exploited-to-fund-north-koreas-nuclear-program-through-mafia-style-cybercrime-operations-report">cybercrime </a>operations&nbsp;were being likened to a mafia organization controlled by Kim Jong Un. The operations involved a global network of North Korean technologists who infiltrated Fortune 500 companies and laundered money to support Kim&#8217;s nuclear and ballistic missile ambitions.
Despite these crackdowns, North Korea&#8217;s cybercrime operations have continued to thrive. In June 2025, it was reported that&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46140769/north-korean-hackers-top-crypto-exploits-list-but-another-state-may-surprise-you">crypto hacks</a> and exploits had surged to record levels, with total losses exceeding $2.1 billion across at least 75 incidents. The largest single event was the $1.5 billion hack of Dubai-based crypto exchange Bybit in February, which was attributed to North Korea.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) is positioning itself as the next Amazon.com Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Amazon Web Services, according to a senior executive who believes the data analytics company offers superior solutions for complex enterprise problems.
What Happened: Ted Mabrey, Global Head of Commercial at Palantir, said on X Tuesday that his company is &#8220;building the next AWS&#8221; and urged entrepreneurs to leverage Palantir&#8217;s platform rather than compete with it. &#8220;If you want to build the next Palantir, you should build it on Palantir,&#8221; Mabrey wrote.
The executive&#8217;s comments came in response to Brendan Falk, founder and CEO of a Stealth Startup, who announced his company was pivoting away from enterprise artificial intelligence transformations after struggling with implementation challenges. Falk cited lengthy sales cycles, complex system integrations, and high maintenance costs as primary obstacles.
Mabrey argued that Palantir has already solved these fundamental problems through years of specialized development. &#8220;All the lessons in the thread are definitely true and the problems that we have beaten our heads against a wall solving with very talented people in a very specialized environment for a very long time,&#8221; he stated.

Why It Matters: When asked about specific unsolved problems more valuable than those AWS addressed, Mabrey responded with a single word: &#8220;Ontology.&#8221; In AI terminology, ontology refers to structured frameworks that help machines interpret and reason about data, mirroring human understanding.
Palantir has been aggressively expanding its commercial partnerships, recently announcing strategic alliances with SAP SE and Divergent Technologies. CEO Alex Karp highlighted the &#8220;extremely valuable&#8221; combination of Palantir&#8217;s Ontology and Foundry <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536259/palantir-partners-with-sap-to-fuse-ontology-foundry-and-enterprise-dataceo-alex-karp-calls-it-extremely-valuable">platforms with enterprise data systems</a>.
The company&#8217;s stock has surged 426% over the past year, closing Tuesday at $136.32. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45536259/palantir-partners-with-sap-to-fuse-ontology-foundry-and-enterprise-dataceo-alex-karp-calls-it-extremely-valuable">investors face valuation risks</a>, with price-to-sales ratios between 80-105x and forward P/E multiples exceeding 300x.
Mabrey emphasized that Palantir&#8217;s technological foundation enables startups to focus on higher-value problems rather than rebuilding basic infrastructure. &#8220;Really all of the value is in the problems we haven&#8217;t gotten to yet,&#8221; he concluded.

Palantir Is Building The Next AWS, Says Top Exec: Urges Startups To Build On PLTR To Tackle 'More Valuable' Problems Than Amazon Solved

Investor Kevin O&#8217;Leary admits that the best portfolio he&#8217;s ever come across didn&#8217;t belong to a hedge fund manager, but his mother, Georgette O&#8217;Leary.
What Happened: Speaking on the Diary of A CEO podcast on Monday, the Shark Tank investor revealed that his mother had managed a personal portfolio for over five decades in absolute secrecy. &#8220;She kept her account secret from both of her husbands,&#8221; O'Leary said. &#8220;She wanted her own independent money.&#8221;
Her strategy, he says, was simple, but disciplined. She would take 20% of her paycheck each week, allocating it to two asset classes, &#8220;stocks that paid dividends, large-cap stocks and telco bonds,&#8221; he says.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/06/46131850/none-of-that-matters-kevin-oleary-says-you-might-have-to-sacrifice-your-marriage-your-dog-and-even-your-moms-love-to-succeed">&#8216;None Of That Matters&#8217; — Kevin O&#8217;Leary Says You Might Have To Sacrifice Your Marriage, Your Dog, And Even Your Mom&#8217;s Love To Succeed</a>
O&#8217;Leary notes that her portfolio followed two important rules: she never invested more than 5% in any one stock or bond, and never had more than 20% in any one sector. When a holding exceeded those thresholds, she trimmed it. Most importantly, he says, she never touched the principal, only spending the dividends and interest.
The result? O&#8217;leary recalls being shocked after her passing when a lawyer revealed her portfolio. &#8220;The performance was extraordinary. It was beyond any hedge fund guy or anything.&#8221;
Stunned by what he saw, O'Leary adopted her strategy for his investing. &#8220;That's how I'm going to invest for the rest of my life, exactly the way Georgette did.&#8221;
Why It Matters: O&#8217;leary, popularly referred to as &#8220;Mr. Wonderful,&#8221; has long held that &#8220;it&#8217;s impossible to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/10/41339171/kevin-oleary-says-its-impossible-to-time-the-market-selling-too-soon-means-missing-out-on-big-gains">time the market</a>,&#8221; not unlike other prominent investors such as Warren Buffett, who has been reiterating similar thoughts for the past several decades.
Instead, O&#8217;leary suggests diversifying investments, while holding them through thick and thin. He believes that investors cannot predict the market&#8217;s ups and downs, and merely trying to do so can cost them dearly.
His investment philosophy, even today, is deeply <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/05/38966085/kevin-olearys-mom-shaped-his-investment-strategy-when-he-was-7-saying-boys-never-spend-the-principal">inspired by his mother</a>, with every stock or fixed income investment generating yield, which he then uses to support his family's lifestyle and charitable commitments.

Earnings Scheduled For July 1, 2025

Entrepreneur and cryptocurrency market commentator Anthony Pompliano projected Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) to soar to a gazillion Monday, driven by massive money printing in a heated economy.
What Happened:&nbsp;Pompliano took to X, reading between the lines of a Truth Social <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114768769011733248">post </a>by President Donald Trump.
&#8220;For all cost-cutting Republicans, of which I am one, REMEMBER, you still have to get reelected. Don't go too crazy! We will make it all up, times 10, with GROWTH, more than ever before,&#8221; Trump wrote.
Pompliano viewed it as a shift away from the administration&#8217;s cost-cutting measures and toward more growth-focused policies.
&#8220;The only way to accelerate growth is to innovate and to print money and we&#8217;re going to do both of them,&#8221; Pompliano said. 
He went on to say that high money printing would heat the economy and send assets priced in dollars skyrocketing, with Bitcoin going to &#8220;a gazillion dollars.&#8221;

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Pompliano&#8217;s prediction aligns with his previous statements on Bitcoin&#8217;s value surge as a response to increasing debt and inflation concerns. In May, he said that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45582934/bitcoins-surge-anthony-pompliano-points-to-debt-inflation-concerns">market is pricing in &#8220;tough times&#8221; ahead</a>, boosting Bitcoin&#8217;s appeal as an attractive safe haven.
Arthur Hayes, Chief Investment Officer of Maelstrom and co-founder of BitMEX, also maintained his optimistic Bitcoin price target in a recent interview, citing what he projected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46089127/arthur-hayes-doubles-down-on-250000-bitcoin-call-sees-1-million-by-2028">to be billions of dollars in fiat liquidity injection</a>.

Anthony Pompliano Says Bitcoin To Reach 'A Gazillion' Driven By Massive Money Printing In A Heated Economy

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. expects the Federal Reserve to deliver three quarter-point interest rate cuts this year, revising its outlook upward amid muted tariff effects and labor market weakness, the Wall Street brokerage said on Monday.
What Happened: The investment bank now projects three consecutive 25-basis-point cuts in September, October and December, abandoning its earlier forecast of a single reduction in December, Reuters reported. The revised projection reflects growing concerns about economic momentum despite ongoing tariff implementation.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has cited tariff pressures as a key inflation driver, with the central bank&#8217;s median core inflation forecast <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46011863/jerome-powell-blames-trump-tariffs-for-inflation-analyst-claps-back-says-fed-is-overplaying-the-card">rising from 2.5% in December to 3.1% currently</a>. &#8220;That&#8217;s due to the effects of the tariffs,&#8221; Powell said during last week&#8217;s press conference.
Amazon.com Inc. CEO Andy Jassy said on Monday that the retail giant &#8220;hasn&#8217;t seen prices appreciately go up&#8221; despite widespread tariff implementation. Fundstrat Global Advisors&#8216; Tom Lee called Amazon a critical inflation indicator, noting the company&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46188202/tom-lee-calls-amazon-an-early-signal-as-andy-jassy-says-no-price-hike-despite-trump-tariffs-absence-of-inflation-is-a-positive-sign">massive import volume positions</a> it to &#8220;see inflation early.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The Fed has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46133756/mohamed-el-erian-flags-political-narratives-affecting-federal-reserves-institutional-integrity-and-operational-credibility">maintained rates at 4.25%-4.50% for four consecutive meetings</a> while projecting two cuts in 2025. Personal Consumption Expenditures inflation is expected to reach 3.0% in 2025, up from March&#8217;s 2.7% forecast, while real GDP growth was downgraded to 1.4% from 1.7%.
Political tensions surrounding Fed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46186509/scott-bessent-on-replacing-powell-as-fed-chair-i-will-do-what-the-president-wants-plays-down-shadow-chair-speculations">independence continue mounting</a>. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Monday he &#8220;will do what the President wants&#8221; when asked about potentially replacing Powell after his term expires in May 2026. President Donald Trump has repeatedly criticized Powell, calling him &#8220;a stupid person&#8221; for keeping rates &#8220;artificially high.&#8221;
Economist Mohamed El-Erian warned that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/46133756/mohamed-el-erian-flags-political-narratives-affecting-federal-reserves-institutional-integrity-and-operational-credibility">three political narratives threaten</a> the Fed&#8217;s &#8220;institutional integrity and operational credibility,&#8221; including speculation about a &#8220;shadow chair&#8221; appointment and internal pressure from Republican-leaning governors pushing for July rate cuts.

Eurozone Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index For June 49.5 Vs. 49.4 Est.; 49.4 Prior

ZEEKR's Cumulative Deliveries Reached 43,012 In June, With 16,702 From Zeekr And 26,310 From Lynk & Co.

Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) are poised to become the first companies to reach a $4 trillion market cap, driven by the burgeoning demand for artificial intelligence (AI), predicts Dan Ives, the global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities.
What Happened: Ives credits the impressive comeback of these two tech giants to ongoing innovation in AI and their significant investments in AI infrastructure. He predicts that Nvidia and Microsoft will reach a $4 trillion market cap this summer, with attention soon turning toward the $5 trillion mark within the next 18 months, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/30/analyst-dan-ives-says-it-will-be-the-summer-of-4-trillion-market-caps-for-surging-tech-giants.html">reported</a> CNBC.
Despite a rocky start to the year due to concerns over China export controls and global tariff issues, both companies have seen a significant rebound in their stock performance. This is largely due to the ongoing AI innovation and substantial investments in AI infrastructure. Ives mentioned that Nvidia and Microsoft are &#8220;foundational pieces&#8221; in the ongoing AI revolution.
Both companies are projected to reach the $4 trillion market cap milestone this summer, with the focus then shifting to the $5 trillion mark over the next 18 months. Ives believes that the tech bull market is still &#8220;in its early stages,&#8221; driven by the AI revolution.
The analyst is particularly optimistic about Nvidia&#8217;s impact on the AI ecosystem, estimating an $8 to $10 multiplier effect for every dollar spent on Nvidia across the tech ecosystem.

Why It Matters: In late June, Nvidia&#8217;s stock price hit a new all-time high, with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46149573/nvidias-stock-price-hits-new-highs-this-is-whats-next">technical outlook </a>remaining robust.
