Selling Apple Stock Would Be A ‘Historically Wrong Move,’ Says Wedbush’s Dan Ives: ‘We View This As A Buying Opportunity’
In a recent interview, an analyst warned that selling Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock before the company’s AI developments could be a significant mistake. What Happened: During a segment of CNBC’s “Last Call,” Dan Ives, a Wedbush analyst, suggested that divesting Apple stock at this juncture would be a grave error. “We view this as a buying opportunity. We’ve been here before … AI is coming to Cupertino. I think to sell this stock ahead of that would be not just the wrong move, but a historically wrong move,” Ives said. Ives’ perspective follows a reported 24% decline in Apple’s iPhone sales in China during the initial six weeks of the year, resulting in its demotion to the fourth position among smartphone vendors in the country, according to Counterpoint Research. “We view this as a buying opportunity. We’ve been here before,” says @DivesTech on Apple. “AI is coming to Cupertino. I think to sell

Microsoft-Backed OpenAI Remains ‘Uncontested Leader’ in Artificial Intelligence, Macquarie Says
Microsoft-backed (MSFT) OpenAI continues to be the “uncontested leader” in artificial intelligence despite the cases filed against it by Tesla (TSLA) Chief Executive Elon Musk and The New York Times (NYT), Macquarie said in a note emailed on Monday. Musk is seeking the removal of GPT-4 from the scope of Microsoft’s intellectual property licensing agreement with OpenAI, while The New York Times sued OpenAI for copyright infringement. “But, regardless of these cases, we have seen the performance gap between GPT-4 and other models narrow, but certainly not close, throughout 2023,” the note said. Macquarie said Microsoft’s Copilot product roadmap would likely be set back if GPT-4 becomes inaccessible to the company because of any of those cases. “But we do not think it would derail its AI product initiatives by any means,” Macquarie said. Macquarie maintained its outperform rating and $455 price target on Microsoft stock.
DoorDash Close in on Profitability With New Ventures, International Market, RBC Says
DoorDash (DASH) has the potential to stabilize profitability with entry in new verticals and international markets, RBC Capital Markets said in a note Monday. DoorDash’s new verticals and international segment may have peaked at losses of around $1.3 billion annually, RBC added. The firm expects that while the company’s core business investment may be minimal, new vertical losses are unlikely to increase year-over-year. The investment firm said it previously underestimated the company’s order growth resilience primarily because of the frequency “which should continue to be a multi-year mid-to-high-teens grower.” DoorDash’s potential partnerships, particularly with LYFT (LYFT), could drive significant incremental orders and enhance its loyalty program, according to the note. The firm said consumer concerns and slow expansion into non-restaurant verticals remain a risk to the company’s growth with low likelihood and potential for upward estimate revisions. RBC raised DoorDash’s stock rating to outperform from sector perform and increased the

Nvidia Envisions Delivering Any Form of Data Center Computing
Nvidia’s vision as a platform company makes its focus different from companies focusing on silicon or a specific chip for a certain workload, CFO Colette Kress says. The chip company finance chief, speaking at a Morgan Stanley conference, says a platform company is able to deliver any form of data center computing that may be needed in the future. “Our focus [is] to make sure at every data center level all of the different components we may be able to provide them, whether it would be the computing infrastructure, the networking infrastructure, the overall memory part of it, just overall full supercomputer we can put together,” Kress says. Shares rise 3.6% to $852.51, extending a run that has vaulted Nvidia into one of the most valuable companies.
