Did The Tech Bubble Just Burst? (I Am Not Kidding). By Gregory Mannarino

Something just happened to this market, and it came out of nowhere (and there lies the problem).

Earlier today the stock market roared higher with a triple digit gain on the DOW. Then, seemingly out of nowhere a hard core selloff in the tech sector began. At the time I am writing this article, Apple is down almost 4%, and this selloff is consuming the entire tech sector-which has been a market leader for the last several months.

**This seemingly from out of nowhere selloff in the tech sector is alarming, because this is generally how market corrections (and crashes) begin, again from seemingly out of nowhere when everything seems to be moving along just fine.

The selloff in tech is something that we must pay attention to, because this has the potential to bleed off into other sectors, starting a cascade of events which could wreak havoc across the capital markets.

Sort:  

FOMC meeting this week, with almost 100% rate rise expected. Third time is the charm, they say. So looks like a good correction coming. Plus possibly one more later this year.

Yeah, this recent bullish wave looks to be 5th wave elliott, beware correction for sure. I will be watching for an opportunity to buy VXX calls or SPY puts if the IV is right

Thanks for the heads up on this!

I also saw today that Goldman Sachs came out and said that there was a "valuation air pocket" before the huge losses came. I'm not sure if this also played a role. Thanks for all you do Greg.

"out of nowhere selloff" .... Nuff said!

Just read article that Apple maybe losing in the phone modem arena. This could make other phones more appealing. In return driving iPhone sales down on an anniversary year.

It would be great to see Apple get the correction they deserve! (along with Microsoft and fakebook)

My thoughts are if Apple charges more for an inferior phone knowing they could have made it better they should take it on the chin. Let competition come in and make apple produce the best product not just another phone that has a new sleek design. But it seems these markets want to hold apple up to protect their assets which is bad for the rest of us.

I think most of those big tech companies, especially Microsoft and Apple, have been trading on their reputations for years, while going backwards. Everything Microsoft have done after Windows 7 is like an evil joke...

I'm all apple but my mom complains about windows 10 all the time. It never works or resets. It's just not user friendly.

Wow... 11 minutes and you already have 44 votes... Ok, time for me to see if you put a new video out there...
@pocketechange

looks like you are right Greg

Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Google, and Microsoft accounted for over 50% of Nasdaq gains YTD And naturally a good amount of the S&P 500 gains. Sad how much perceived wealth is centered on such few corporations.

I agree, it's pretty sad to see how much money is poured into so few companies that don't really deserve it.
