Hi Libby,
MM has been bullish and overweight tech stocks for the last 3-4 months but from a risk/reward perspective we believe the horse has bolted, at least for now, after the FANG ETF’s +28% recovery.
- we are starting to realise some profits from our tech holdings e.g. we sold SEEK (SEK) on Friday.
Fundamentally the picture has improved but we believe this is already largely reflected by the sector, hence at this stage of the cycle we would like to see how the markets react to the current US earnings season before considering buying.
- moving forward we can see investors becoming frustrated if the Fed drags its heals with regards to reducing rates if/when the economy deteriorates, something we believe it will indeed do.
