Editor’s Note: “Explosive Growth? Meaning of AI Stocks for the Market Shift on May 7th” was updated from its previous title “After the market shakeup on May 7th, AI stocks could explode.” April 2025. The article now includes the latest relevant information.
What happens when we combine some major technological trends with arguably the most ambitious president in U.S. history? Well, you might just ignite a $7 trillion summer panic. The market has experienced a rapid rise unlike anything seen since the internet boom of 1997.
I think we might see some panic setting in right next week on May 7th, as the White House is anticipated to launch an AI Acceleration initiative.
Essentially, investors are sitting on an unprecedented $7 trillion in cash, eager for a chance to invest. According to S&P Global Market Intelligence, a significant portion of this—around $2.62 trillion—sits in private equity.
This surge of cash is already reaping substantial profits in the stock market this summer.
But here’s the honest truth: the events of 2025 aren’t the first “crash” we’ve seen recently.
We had the flash crash of 2010, the U.S. debt downgrade in 2011, the original currency devaluation in 2015, and Fed rate hikes creating panic in 2018. Remember the Covid crash and the inflation turmoil in 2020?
Each of these situations presented an opportunity for savvy investors who knew where to look.
In fact, many of the market downturns over the past decade ushered in the age of what I refer to as the “epic 7” stocks…
Identify Opportunities Amid Market Volatility
During the product crisis of the mid-2010s, I recognized Meta Platforms Inc., Apple Inc., Amazon.com Inc., and Microsoft Corp. as long-term winners. Each achieved profits between 800% and 1,000%.
In February 2018, the stock market saw one of its fastest 10% declines on record. On the rebound, we identified Google as a powerhouse, which surged nearly 300%.
Fast forward to the summer of 2019 when the market faced another small correction. That’s when I decided to invest in Tesla Inc. and Nvidia Corp.. Since then, Tesla has skyrocketed by over 3,700%, with Nvidia following closely at a staggering 4,000% increase.
In other words, I spotted the epic 7 before they transformed into the MAG 7, all during a time of high market volatility.
I don’t mean to boast, but it’s crucial to highlight a fact that often slips people’s minds: Volatility breeds opportunities.
Every sell-off feels terrifying at the moment; however, in retrospect, these moments often reveal themselves as unexpected blessings.
This time won’t be different.
Beneath the chaos in today’s market, a significant technological wave is emerging—one that doesn’t involve the Mag 7 anymore. Those stocks belonged to yesterday’s trends, not the significant breakout of tomorrow.
This new wave? I’m calling it the “Maga 7.” It stands for “Make AI Great in America.”
Maga 7: AI Stocks Poised for the Next Market Shift
AI is already making strides in the U.S., but we are on the cusp of something truly great. For the foreseeable future, we are aiming to make AI exceptional in America (MAGA).
The Maga 7 comprises seven smaller AI stocks that are positioning themselves to capitalize on renewed federal funding, corporate investments, and emerging opportunities.
These companies are laying the groundwork for tools, chip supply, factory automation, and the intelligence behind America’s next major technological renaissance.
Right now, they may not be on many people’s radars. However, after the shakeup on May 7th, that could very well change.
If you get in before it happens…
Well, you’ll know how this story unfolds.
Think Amazon in 1998, Nvidia in 2015, and Tesla in 2019.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to seize on a huge market upheaval.
According to McKinsey, Generative AI could contribute up to $4.4 trillion annually.
On top of that, the Biden administration has earmarked over $140 billion for U.S. semiconductor and AI infrastructure. This opportunity may expand even further if Trump doubles down on his focus on AI and defense-grade innovation.
Of course, not every wave of technology yields lasting benefits. The crash of 2000 serves as a reminder. However, today’s AI leaders are backed by tangible revenue, innovative applications, and government contracts—not just clicks and views.
Just recently, I organized an Emergency Briefing to help position investors for the next AI stock gains.
Here’s what I discovered:
- The $7 trillion market panic could ignite on May 7th…
- The real connection between Trump’s actions and the AI boom…
- and Maga 7 stocks that I believe can soar as this market chaos transforms into opportunities.
Remember: Volatility creates opportunities.
This is your moment to seize it.
Stay informed about the summer 2025 panic and be prepared for what’s to come.
