    The stat that’s going around at the moment is that 30% if the GDP is transactions between the “Magnificent 7”. That one is fair because it’s economic activity.

    The underlying economy is in recession with the AI frosting on top pushing it to break even levels.

      Those stocks make up 30% of S&P 500, by weight.

      Not GDP.
