Investors Shifting Away from Tech Giants

Unprecedented Shift: Investors Flee Tech Giants, Flock to Smaller StocksIn a surprising turn of events, investors are moving away from big tech companies and towards smaller, riskier stocks and traditional industries like transportation. This trend, which began in November, has seen the Russell two thousand Index, tracking small companies, rise over nine percent and reach an all-time high. Micro-cap stocks have also seen a twelve percent increase.The shift is partly due to growing skepticism about artificial intelligence stocks and optimism about the US economys potential growth in the first half of 2026. Experts advise focusing on a broader range of stocks, anticipating future tax policies to boost spending. The change in leadership is evident in the performance of the S&P five hundred, with the fifty largest companies dropping slightly while the other four hundred fifty companies saw gains.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
