FAANGM declined 7.7% while the S&P 500 fell 5.9% in January.AMZN and NFLX were the laggards, slumping 12.2% and 28.3% respectively.We remain OVERWEIGHT on FAANGM. We raised our target prices for Apple, Microsoft and Alphabet after better-than-expected earnings. We modestly trimmed Amazon’s target price as sales slow after a pandemic-induced surge, but remain positive and see easing labour costs as the next share price catalyst.

We have cut their target prices, but they remain a buy after their sharp share price corrections.
