The 'MAGA Seven' group of stocks has enjoyed significant gains since the presidential election
A group of stocks dubbed the "MAGA Seven" by MarketWatch have enjoyed significant gains since the Nov. 5 presidential election, some lifted by links to Donald Trump and others by a bullish market. This is how the group is faring on the first full day of the second Trump administration.
While the group of tech stocks known as the "Magnificent Seven" have garnered huge attention in recent years, the MAGA Seven have enjoyed a stellar few months. The group is made up of stocks that trade on U.S. exchanges, had a market capitalization of $15 billion or higher on Nov. 5 and saw their share prices increase by the biggest percentage between Election Day and Trump's Jan. 20 inauguration.
Shares of app-monetization company AppLovin Corp. (APP) are up 2.2% Tuesday, continuing the trajectory that has seen the stock rise 120.3% in the last three months. Set against this backdrop, the company's market cap has soared from $55.43 billion on Nov. 5 to $114.9 billion.

Business-software company and cryptocurrency play MicroStrategy Inc. $(MSTR.AU)$ is also expected to benefit from a crypto-friendly White House. The Tysons Corner, Va.-based company has seen its stock climb 76.8% in the last three months. However, MicroStrategy's shares are down 2.5% Tuesday.
