Q: Hello Team and good Family Day for the ones in Ontario,
Apart from the market fixation now on overspending on AI which costs a bundle and may not generate more profit, I read somewhere an analyst making a parallel between GE (pre-separation in 3 separate entities) and the 3 members of the Mag 7 listed above. He says they may be going the way GE did when the market started pricing conglomerates the way it did for the last 15 years which consequently brought GE to a very low multiple. What did it for GE, he says, was being involved in different and unrelated businesses, for one, and one strong entity pulling the weight of costly money losing members for another. He says it is also true especially in the AMZN and GOOG cases. What do you think? As always thanks for your strong insight, Adel.
