Over the weekend, Goldman – whose “FAAMG” report was one of the catalysts to the Friday “tech wreck” rotation out of tech/growth/momentum and into value/energy – warned that the pain may not be over, simply because the outperformance of strong balance sheet companies – usually tech-linked names that have little or no debt and substantial cash flow – in a 10%+ equity market rally is rare; occurring in only 5% of six-month stretches in the last 30 years, and warning that “the last such notable episode was in 2000, at the Tech Bubble peak.”
This morning it was JPM’s turn to opine on Friday’s events, only not on the cause of the mauling, but why we got to where we are. As JPM’s macro strategist Adam Crisafuli writes, “tech will remain under pressure – the space has become overcrowded w/a lot of lazy/complacent money chasing momentum and these weak hands can be quick to exit – that departure process usually takes longer than just a few days.”
