"Magnificent Seven" tech stocks, including Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL), Meta (META), and Microsoft (MSFT), issued earnings last week. Some of the reports announced plans for major capital expenditures toward the development of AI projects. Niles Investment Management Founder Dan Niles joins Catalysts to explore how tech giants benefit from each other's earnings reports, as well as the market's reaction to tech earnings. "Meta came out first, and they guided below the Street for next quarter's revenues, but then they took up their cap-x as well as their expenses. Google came out after that, and remember, Meta went down 11%, and Google initiated a dividend, which was great, but if you look at the forward numbers, actually, the estimates across the Street actually edged down for revenues for their upcoming June quarter as well. So, I think to some extent, Google benefitted from Meta going first, and if you look at Microsoft, sort of a similar situation, where the stock was up, I think, 2% or so the next day, but again, they came after Meta, and Microsoft's forward revenue numbers edged down slightly as well," Niles explained.

47% of S&P 500 (^GSPC) companies have reported their results so far with nearly four in five beating Wall Street expectations, according to FactSet. Against this backdrop, Advisors Capital Management Partner and Portfolio Manager JoAnne Feeney joins Wealth! to discuss how investors should navigate the market. Feeney notes that earnings results from Big Tech names like Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) and Meta (META) have enabled the markets to sustain their upward momentum despite a Federal Reserve rate cut not yet materializing. Many of these companies are "on track to grow" on the back of the ongoing artificial intelligence boom, she adds.  Feeney acknowledges that "there's a lot of mixed information coming out of the markets," emphasizing the importance of investing in individual stocks instead of taking a broad approach. Although the Fed hasn't cut rates, she describes it as a "good news story" because the economy remains strong, and earnings continue to grow. "What you have to do is not look at the market as a whole, but look at individual companies with strong demand drivers that are in the right place in the market for how the world is changing," Feeney tells Yahoo Finance.
