2023 was largely a tale of two markets. The “S&P 493” (roughly two-thirds of the index, by market cap) was up 20.3% (on average), while the seven largest mega-cap stocks (i.e. the “Magnificent 7”) were up ~100%, on average (see table below). In this report, we rank each of the Magnificent 7 stocks for 2024, with a special focus on Amazon (including an update on its business, its four big growth opportunities, valuation and risks). We conclude with our stern opinion on investing in Amazon (and the Magnificent 7) in 2024, especially as compared to non-mega-cap growth stock opportunities.
