Overview of Top US Tech Stocks

NVIDIA Corporation

NVIDIA designs the graphics processors that now power much of the world's artificial intelligence computing. Jensen Huang, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem started the company in 1993 in Santa Clara, California, initially building chips for video games. Its CUDA software platform later turned those graphics chips into general-purpose engines for AI training, making NVIDIA the leading supplier of AI data-centre hardware today.

Apple Inc.

Apple was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne in Cupertino, California, to build and sell personal computers. The Macintosh, iPod, iPhone and iPad followed over the next three decades, turning Apple into one of the world's largest consumer electronics makers by revenue. Beyond hardware, the company now runs a large Services business spanning the App Store, iCloud and Apple Music.

Microsoft Corporation

Bill Gates and Paul Allen started Microsoft in 1975 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to write software for early personal computers. Its MS-DOS and Windows operating systems later became the standard on most personal computers worldwide. Microsoft has since built a large cloud computing business through Azure, alongside its Office productivity suite, LinkedIn and the Xbox gaming division.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company pioneered the pure-play foundry model when Morris Chang founded it in 1987 in Hsinchu, Taiwan. Rather than designing its own branded chips, TSMC manufactures processors on behalf of other companies, including many of the world's largest chip designers. This contract-manufacturing approach has made it the dominant maker of advanced semiconductors used in smartphones, computers and AI accelerators.

Broadcom Inc

Broadcom Inc traces back to Avago Technologies, a semiconductor business spun out of Hewlett-Packard and Agilent in 2005. Avago bought Broadcom Corporation for $37 billion in 2016 and adopted its name, later moving its base to Palo Alto, California. The company today builds semiconductors for networking and wireless devices, and also owns infrastructure software including VMware, acquired in 2023.

Risks of Investing in Tech Stocks

Concentrated AI Capital Spending

A small number of large technology companies account for the bulk of AI-related capital expenditure, and any slowdown could weigh on chip and hardware demand across the supply chain.

Export Controls and Trade Policy

US restrictions on advanced chip exports to certain countries have periodically disrupted semiconductor supply chains and revenue from key export markets.

Currency and Regulatory Risk for Indian Investors

Returns from US tech stocks are affected by INR-USD exchange rate movements in addition to the underlying stock performance.

High Valuations

Many large US technology companies trade at high price-to-earnings multiples relative to the broader market.

Key Factors That Influence US Tech Stocks' Performance

AI Capital Expenditure Cycles

Data centre and cloud infrastructure spending by large technology companies moves in cycles tied to compute capacity needs and available power supply.

Interest Rates and Discount Rates

Technology companies are often valued on expectations of long-term earnings growth, which makes their share prices sensitive to changes in interest rates.

Global Supply Chain and Manufacturing Concentration

Advanced chip manufacturing is concentrated among a small number of foundries, most of them located in Taiwan and other parts of Asia.

Product Cycles and Innovation Pace

Technology company revenues are closely tied to major product launches and upgrade cycles, from new chip architectures to device refreshes and software releases.

Key Growth Drivers for Tech Stocks

AI Infrastructure Buildout

Data centre systems spending is projected to grow 62.5% year-on-year in 2026 as companies expand AI training and inference capacity.

Cloud and Infrastructure-as-a-Service Expansion

Infrastructure-as-a-service spending is forecast to grow 29.3% in 2026, among the fastest-growing categories in enterprise IT.

Rising Chip Content Across Devices

Semiconductor content per device continues to rise as AI features are built into smartphones, PCs and data centre servers. Logic chips generated $301.9 bn in 2025 sales, up 39.9% year-on-year.

Enterprise Software Modernisation

Global software spending is projected to reach $1.468 tn in 2026, up 15.5% year-on-year.
