Big Tech, Chips Will Push Nasdaq to 30,000, Ives Says

• Cerebras Systems IPO is a 'watershed moment' for the tech sector, indicating high market appetite for AI-exposed companies.
• The AI revolution will continue to drive the chip trade higher, with demand-to-supply ratios like Nvidia's 10-to-1 accelerating spending across inference and infrastructure.
• Nasdaq is projected to hit 30,000 in the next 6-9 months, propelled by the second, third, and fourth derivatives of the AI trade, including software and broader tech.
