He listed ZScaler, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZS), Palo Alto Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:PANW), CrowdStrikeHoldings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWD) as "defensive names where investors could rotate from semis to software to hunker down during this Category 5 storm." 

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) remain Ives' top names to own and even with "this massive near-term uncertainty it does not change their installed base, technology leadership, and long-term growth opportunities ," the Wedbush analyst said. 

Ives reiterated his calls for President Donald Trump to begin negotiations to reduce or eliminate tariffs which have led to the most difficult investing landscape in his "25 years covering tech stocks on the Street."

Earnings estimates will need to be reevaluated by the Street and Ives warned that most companies will likely not offer any forward guidance on their upcoming Q1 conference calls. 

"Today will be a scary day for investors (and us) … it will create opportunities and way oversold tech stocks but we need to essentially toss out the next few quarters and start to work with some new normal financial model for 2026 for valuations as this tariff situation settles into place during negotiations," Ives said.
