Though information technology is among the top-performing sectors so far in 2025, the returns are anything but evenly distributed across the tech universe.
When many investors think of tech, they imagine the Magnificent Seven—the titans of the tech space, including Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG), and their ilk. But digging into performance, as a group, these mega-cap firms have performed about in line with the broader market year-to-date (YTD). For example, the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (BATS: MAGS), an exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracking the performance of these seven firms, has returned 9.6% compared to 9.3% for the S&P 500 over that period.
