To The Moon

Learnings and conclusions from this week’s charts:

• Tech stocks (particularly software) remain under pressure.

• Investor exposure to tech is at historically elevated levels.

• Surging tech capex is coming at the cost of buybacks.

• Private equity stocks are also coming under pressure.

• Defensive stocks meanwhile are looking up.

Overall, it’s fair to say that we are at a challenging juncture in markets. Tech stocks are coming under pressure, and from a starting point of major overvaluation and historically high allocations.

So it’s worth keeping a closer eye on risk management and potential upside in defensives, while staying pragmatic with the otherwise still bullish outlook for cyclicals/global/commodities…

Going it alone? as outlined the other day, the US tech sector remains under pressure, and the path of the Nasdaq 100 $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ is presenting a very different picture than that of the equal-weighted S&P500 $S&P 500(.SPX)$ . So far it has been a case of rotation, with bullish rotation into cyclicals carrying the market for now.

But there is a risk that further downside in tech de-rails the bullish rotations and activates more of a defensive/bearish rotation or just plain and simple: downside for stocks in general.
