Tech stocks just had their worst week since April, tumbling 3% with some AI stocks already falling into bear market territory. But as some worry this is the start of a stock market crash, I’ll show you proof of why the selloff is the typical five- to 10% correction we see each year that becomes a buying opportunity - and the seven stocks I’m loading up on.
All three major stock market indexes fell last week but in all the fear, it’s important to remember that the broader S&P 500 market gauge is down only 2.7% from its all-time high set just last week. That may be little help for those with AI stocks that have plunged double-digits but those are also the stocks that are up 50%-plus this year. It may get worse before it gets better but those same stocks are going to lead the recovery.
Investors won’t get much planned stock news this week to help lift sentiment. The government shutdown means we’ll get no economic data including the monthly inflation numbers.
There will be lots of Fed speakers but they’re all likely to say the same thing, that the shutdown could start to hit the economy but there’s no way of knowing it. The market is still pricing in 66% odds of a rate cut when the Fed meets in December and recent weakness in consumer confidence and private jobs data should move those odds higher.
Earnings season is mostly over with 91% of companies in the S&P 500 index having reported though we’ll see important reports from retailers over the next few weeks. It will be an important read on the health of the consumer but overall earnings have been very good, up 13% from last year and much better than expected which is supportive of stocks.
