New York | EcoPulse24

Major US technology stocks continued their positive performance on Friday, buoyed by improved risk appetite and investor focus on artificial intelligence and e-commerce sectors.

Nvidia shares climbed to $187.68, up $2.85 or 1.54% from the previous session. Over the past four weeks, the stock gained 0.81%, and its annual gain stands at 27.48%, reflecting persistent demand for AI solutions and advanced chips.

Amazon closed at $239.90, rising $5.56 or 2.37% in a single session. On a monthly basis, Amazon gained 3.34%, with a yearly increase of 1.90%, supported by growth in cloud services and stable e-commerce margins.

Microsoft posted a notable performance, jumping to $467.93 - up $16.79 or 3.72% from the previous close, marking one of its strongest recent sessions. Over the past four weeks, Microsoft shares rose 4.12%, with an annual gain of 5.38%, driven by expansion in enterprise AI and continued strength in its Azure cloud platform.

However, Trading Economics models indicate a more cautious medium-term outlook. Nvidia's share price is forecast to fall to around $180.48 by the end of the current quarter and $164.26 within a year, due to potential repricing of high growth rates. Amazon is projected to reach approximately $231.73 by quarter-end, potentially declining to $210.91 within a year amid moderated growth and possible global consumption volatility. For Microsoft, the models suggest a drop to about $445.65 by quarter-end and $405.60 within a year, reflecting reassessment of growth and risk pricing.

EcoPulse24 Analysis

The gains in Nvidia and Amazon highlight the ongoing concentration of liquidity in high-quality growth stocks, especially those tied to AI and digital infrastructure. Nevertheless, the gap between current performance and future expectations suggests that markets may have already priced in much optimism, leaving room for interim corrections without disrupting the long-term structural trend. The next phase is likely to be more selective, with true operational performance rewarded over broad bets on the tech sector.
