Meet the Magnificent Seven Stocks

What are the Magnificent Seven Stocks?

Love him or hate him, Jim Cramer has made his mark once again. In June 2023, Cramer helped to popularize the term "Magnificent Seven" to refer to the seven leading tech stocks, drawing inspiration from the iconic 1960 Western film, "The Magnificent Seven". Notably, he's the same financial pundit who first coined the term “FANG” stocks.

Regardless of your opinion of Cramer, it is hard to argue that Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, Nvidia and Tesla are anything other than Magnificent. Just like the seven men, each with their unique skills and backgrounds in the film attempt to save a village from a bandit, the Magnificent Seven stocks have saved the market this year, contributing more than 80% of the S&P 500’s total return. This is particularly remarkable given how bearish market participants were at the start of the year. 

What Makes these Seven Stocks considered as the “Magnificent 7”?

The Magnificent Seven stocks are the stock market’s current leaders in driving technological innovation. These are mega cap companies with wide moats and more resilient business models when compared to smaller, less diversified counterparts. The Magnificent Seven companies operate across the globe with multiple product lines and continued investment in research and development, leading to innovations that can potentially power future growth. Lastly, their significant resources (i.e., strong net cash positions) allow them to establish and maintain competitive advantages, such as economies of scale, strong brand recognition and robust distribution networks.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risk, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For a prospectus or summary prospectus with this and other information about Roundhill ETFs please call 1-855-561-5728 or visit the website at www.roundhillinvestments.com/etf/. Read the prospectus or summary prospectus carefully before investing. 

The Fund expects to have concentrated (i.e., invest more than 25% of its net assets) investment exposure in one or more of the Technology Industries at any given time, which may vary over time. Further, the Fund expects to obtain such investment exposure by transacting primarily with a limited number of financial intermediaries conducting business in the same industry or group of related industries. As a result, the Fund is more vulnerable to adverse market, economic, regulatory, political or other developments affecting those industries or groups of related industries than a fund that invests its assets in a more diversified manner. The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles. Please see the summary and full prospectuses for a more complete description of these and other risks of the Fund.
