E247: Why Wall Street Is Wrong About AI w/ Dan Ives
Is traditional valuation dead for the biggest winners of the AI era? Or have investors simply been looking in the wrong place? In this episode, I talk with Dan Ives, Managing Director and Global Head of Technology Research at Wedbush Securities, and one of Wall Street’s most followed tech analysts. Dan has covered the software and technology sector for 25 years, becoming known for his bold, high-conviction calls on Tesla, Nvidia, Microsoft, and Palantir long before they became consensus. We break down why Dan calls Tesla the world’s leading “physical AI” company, why he thinks AI is the largest tech transformation in 40–50 years, what investors miss when they rely only on spreadsheets, and how his pattern-recognition framework helps him spot multi-baggers years before the herd.
