Is market rotation powerful? Investors dumped US tech stocks
Accroding to Bloomberg and Financial times, investors dumped shares in many of the technology companies that surged during the pandemic as the looming spectre of higher interest rates prompted them to buy into businesses more tightly linked to the economic recovery.
Thanks to the new-year bond selloff, Wall Street pros are doubling down on a big stock call for 2022: The leadership of high-growth tech darlings is no more.
A closely watched index collated by Goldman Sachs that tracks the returns of lossmaking tech groups is down 9.8 per cent this year, trailing the 1.4 per cent fall by the benchmark S&P 500.

The rotation accelerated on Wednesday in the wake of a warning from the Federal Reserve that a faster pace of interest rate rises could be necessary to tame inflation.
But even after the US stock market fell broadly, investors maintained recent bets on banks, industrial and energy companies whose fortunes are tied closely to the US economic expansion. All three sectors are up for the year so far.
BofA's strategists chose stocks with strong free cash flow and dividend yields they see withstanding inflation. Therefore, they like $Citigroup (C.US)$ , $Viacom-B (VIAB.US)$ , $Carrier Global (CARR.US)$ and $CrowdStrike (CRWD.US)$ for Q1.
$S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$ $Bank of America (BAC.US)$

71043363 : It is just the beginning… most of the tech stocks are overvalued and the whole market is a big bubble these days… just check SPY, Tesla, Apple, Microsoft and many more stocks at the end of 2019 and compare with today…. Just wait and see :)
Too Big To Fail : Gone are the days when they would trick us with such articles to invest in companies that would benefit them. We do our research and invest in companies we believe in or companies we know will make us money. F@&k market sway! Gone are the days when you told us Toys R Us is a not a good company and we believed you. F market sway.
