Beyond the Bull: Dan Ives Exits Wedbush for a New AI Frontier
How Wall Street's most colorful tech analyst is redefining investment banking for the artificial intelligence era.
About this episode
In this episode, we dive into the end of an era on Wall Street as renowned technology analyst Dan Ives steps down from his role at Wedbush Securities after eight highly influential years. Known for his signature brightly colored jackets, entrepreneurial spirit, and early, dead-on predictions regarding the AI revolution and tech giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia, Ives is now charting a bold new course. We explore the details of his departure and his ambitious next chapter: launching a "modern merchant bank." With his recent appointment as Chairman of the Board for Eightco Holdings (now trading under the Nasdaq ticker ORBS), Ives is spearheading a venture that blends equity research, strategic advisory, and capital raising with a focus on AI and digital identity infrastructure, including the innovative "Proof of Human" Worldcoin strategy. Join us as we unpack what this rare transition means for the future of investment banking, digital identity, and the broader technology sector.
