Nov 2 : Deutsche Bank turned bullish on US technology stocks, reversing a downgrade made three weeks ago, saying a sharp selloff has created an attractive buying opportunity and much of the AI-related risk was already priced in.
More than $2 trillion was wiped off the Nasdaq 100's market value last month, as investors reassessed AI-related investments and growth expectations.
Here are more details from the brokerage's Friday note:
• Tech and mega-cap growth stocks have lagged the rest of the S&P 500 by more than 16 per centage points over the past three weeks, falling about 11 per cent while the broader index rose nearly 6 per cent, leaving the sector near the low end of its historical trading range

• "Magnificent Seven" results reinforced investor concerns about the pace of returns from heavy AI spending, contributing to recent weakness in large-cap technology stocks
• Technology's relative performance has fallen to the bottom of its long-term range, a level that has marked attractive entry points in recent years
• Previous rotations back into tech have resulted in average gains of about 32 per cent and roughly 30 per centage points of outperformance versus the rest of the S&P 500
• Overall equity positioning remains relatively light despite solid earnings growth, leaving room for investors to increase exposure if corporate profits remain resilient
