🎁What the Tigers Say | Bull vs. Bear: Is the Tech Sector's Rebound Sustainable?

Hi Tigers, welcome to ”What the Tigers Say” [Cool]

This is a weekly column planned to share the great opinion from Tigers on ‘Bull vs. Bear: Is the Tech Sector's Rebound Sustainable?’

The $S&P 500(.SPX)$ rose for the fifth consecutive week, both the $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ and the $S&P 500(.SPX)$ hit their highest levels since April 2022. The performance of the tech sector plays a significant role in shaping market sentiments and investor strategies.

Is the tech sector primed for a bull run, or will a bear market prevail?

Below are some insights from Tiger @Capital_Insights, @NAI500 and @Twelve_E. Which opinions do you agree with?

🎁Special Notes: Whoever showed on the” What the Tigers Say” column will receive 100 Tiger Coins and an exclusive interview invitation to honor of your contribution.

Click titles to read the full analysis:

1. @Capital_Insights: S&P500: Bear vs. Bull, Wall Street is Increasingly Divided

Key Points:

  • A survey of market sentiment by the American Retail Investors Association showed that bullish sentiment in U.S. stocks outstripped bearish sentiment in the latest week by the largest margin since November 2021. All in all, optimism has soared too fast, and investors who are afraid of missing out on this round of opportunities are not only chasing this round of gains but also believing that the US stock market can continue to rise in the future.

  • Against this backdrop, strategists led by Mislav Matejka say that while they remain overweight growth stocks over cheaper so-called value stocks, they see defensive stocks as more risk-reward for the rest of the year. The sectors they recommend include healthcare, essentials and utilities.

  • The next test for stocks could be the Federal Reserve's next rate decision, which will tighten policy further in July, which could end up being the catalyst for a market correction.

2. @NAI500: Tech Giants Lead the Way: The Bear Market is Over

Key Points:

  • The tech sector often serves as a leading indicator for the economy and the stock market. These companies are typically quick to cut expenses in areas such as digital advertising, software, and cloud computing, meaning their stocks tend to decline before the broader market and recover earlier. This trend seems to be reflected in the current market.

  • The first-quarter earnings results further support the idea that the tech recession has come to an end, except for Tesla. While most companies experienced only modest revenue growth in Q1, it is the shift in the economic downturn that matters.

  • This is another sign that the worst phase of the tech recession is over, and the industry's overall bullish sentiment, particularly regarding artificial intelligence, supports its recovery.

3. @Twelve_E: Bull vs. Bear: 5 Crucial Factors to Consider in the Short-Term

Key Points:

  • Prominent market leaders such as $Apple(AAPL)$ and $Microsoft(MSFT)$ are nearing their all-time highs. Often, when stocks recover to such levels after a prolonged decline, they encounter initial selling pressure. Given their significant weightings in the market, any consolidation or pullback in these leaders could impact the overall market sentiment.

  • While several short-term indicators point towards a market that may require a period of rest or consolidation, accurately predicting the timing and extent of a pullback remains challenging. During the early stages of bull markets, overbought levels can become even more pronounced. As an investor, it is crucial to maintain an odds-focused mindset, weighing the risk-reward ratio and considering the evolving market conditions.

    I'm a bit bearish overall, as we're not sure what's the next move from the FED.  The other thing is liquidity, which is caused by credit tightening, and the FED continues to sell  its securities.
    From the technical point of view, RSI on those big tech companies is at overbought zone.

    🌟🌟🌟All eyes will be on Jerome Powell today and tomorrow as he testifies in Congress.  Markets maybe volatile but this is just a temporary headwind.  Ultimately I believe that the Bulls will win as the AI will continue to dominate our lives and the Tech companies like Microsoft, Apple, Nvidia will thrive.  It's exciting times ahead!

    ⭐⭐⭐Bull versus Bear!  It's Bull  for me as I believe that the current AI mania will drive the Tech Sector to new heights!  It's simply amazing how Tech Giants like Apple, Microsoft have soared in value.  Nvidia is the golden child and recently reached over USD 1 Trillion Dollars in market capitalisation.  Then there is Tesla which have seen its share price rise continuously for more than 13 days!
    It's time for the Tech Sector to shine as AI mania takes the world by storm!

    Nice topic, Bull VS Bear. I think more towards bull for the midterm based on current trend. The surge has been too steep for the past two weeks and it is totally normal to have some correction this week before next rally! Haha. Hopefully it won't over correct and become a bear suddenly ya. For the tech sector, I believe the worst is over as many companies in semiconductor claim to have rising order gradually.

    🌟🌟🌟The Bear is in charge today after Jerome Powell's hawkish message that there will be further rate hikes if inflation is not controlled.    There is a new paradigm that interest rates may continue to be high to put a dampening effect on borrowing costs by companies.   We may even have recession later this year or early next year as a result. 😍😍😍

    the hype of AI will still continues since we have a lot of AI fans out there. the obstacle that is needed to stall the bullish of AI would be a Fed rise from Jerome Powell.

    Cautiously bullish. Techs have run up a bit too much in the short run and the Feds are not done with hiking yet. Inflationary pressures remain high despite tapering a bit.

    I guess now is not the time to get too caught up by trading too aggressively. it's been bearish for the last few days and we may not know how the market will react. also, with Fed still keen on rate hike. so will have to be careful and trade cautiously... [smile] [smile] [smile]

    Thanks loads @TigerClub for this important discussion❣️Whether the tech’s sector rebound is sustainable greatly depends on inflation and subsequent rate hikes. If inflation comtinues to remain high, the Fed will have no choice to raise rates further, causing a recession, in which tech stocks will suffer under high interest rate and recessionary conditions.
