Hi Darren,
A very topical question at the moment and one we are watching very closely – even with the market sitting up over 100-points at midday on Friday the local Tech Sector was trading marginally lower.
At this stage, in the short-term we believe the bearish elastic band can stretch a little further but we definitely would call ourselves in “Buy Mode” with the pullback very mature. Ranking stocks in the sector is hard when they’ve fallen as one for two overbearing reasons – Firstly, interest rates are now expected to rise, as opposed to fall, in 2026, removing an important tailwind for high-value growth stocks. Secondly, the “AI Trade” is being called into question as spending vs. potential returns has led to a major re-rating on global bourses. However, here goes:
- Wisetech Global (WTC), Life360 (360), Catapult (CAT), Xero (XRO), and Hansen (HSN) in that order. We own them all!
NB Shawn’s Trading Ideas anticipates buying 360 or CAT in the coming week.
