\n The S&P 500\u2019s rally since late October 2023 ranks up there with some\n of the biggest moves within a short time frame in market history, and the\n index continues to rack up new all-time highs.\n <\/p>\n

\n The dominance of the so-called Magnificent 7 technology-oriented stocks\n (Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon.com, NVIDIA, Tesla, and Meta\n Platforms) that are leveraged to artificial intelligence (AI)\u2014especially\n in the past year\u2014can\u2019t help but harken back to the Tech Bubble about a\n quarter century ago.\n <\/p>\n

\n The Magnificent 7 stocks as a group have surged over 80 percent in the\n past year, whereas the S&P 500 has climbed around 27 percent through\n Mar. 4, 2024. When the Magnificent 7 and other technology-oriented stocks\n are excluded from the S&P 500, the gain is a much more modest 10.8\n percent.\n <\/p>\n

\n With such stark differences between tech and non-tech, it\u2019s no wonder\n we\u2019re starting to get questions about whether tech stocks are getting\n bubbly again.\n <\/p>\n \n

All\n three have risen in the past year, but the performance varies widely with\n Bloomberg Magnificent 7 up 81.3%, the S&P 500 up 26.7%, and the UBS S&P\n 500 Ex-Tech up 10.8%.\n <\/p>\n

    Broad-minded<\/h2>\n

    \n First, we think it\u2019s important to distinguish between market trends of the\n past year and the rally that began following the low in late October.\n <\/p>\n

    \n The Magnificent 7 stocks and technology-oriented stocks in general have\n dominated both periods. But market performance has broadened out since\n late October.\n <\/p>\n

    \n Financials, Industrials, and Real Estate\u2014diverse economically sensitive\n sectors\u2014have risen over 20 percent. Their gains are up there with the\n three sectors boosted by Magnificent 7 stocks: Information Technology,\n Communication Services, and Consumer Discretionary.\n Market performance has gone beyond just the Magnificent 7, and we view\n this as a healthy sign.\n <\/p>\n \n

    \n Since late October, in addition to AI enthusiasm, the market has been\n driven by solid Q4 earnings results combined with optimism about 2024\n profit growth. It also has been supported by sturdy economic data and\n declining inflation, along with investor anticipation that the U.S.\n Federal Reserve will start cutting interest rates at some point this year.\n <\/p>\n \n

    That was then, this is now<\/h2>\n

    \n Second, we think it\u2019s important to consider the key differences between\n the Tech Bubble peak in March 2000 and conditions today.\n <\/p>\n

    \n The combined price-to-earnings (P\/E) ratio of the Magnificent 7 is much\n lower than that of the so-called \u201cFour Horsemen\u201d stocks (Intel, Microsoft,\n Cisco Systems, and Dell), the group that powered the Tech sector higher\n back in the bubble days.\n <\/p>\n

    \n Today, the Magnificent 7 trailing 12-month P\/E is 38.3x, whereas 24 years\n ago the Four Horsemen P\/E was an extremely pricey 82.7x, according to\n Bloomberg.\n <\/p>\n

    \n Beyond the Four Horsemen, part of the rally during the Tech Bubble era was\n fueled by companies with no earnings and some that barely had operational\n track records. These were dot-com firms that went public practically\n overnight\u2014and collapsed almost as rapidly.\n <\/p>\n

    \n That\u2019s not the case this go-around. The AI move and rally in other Tech\n stocks has been fueled by established firms with years of profits in the\n books, long operational track records, and experienced management teams.\n <\/p>\n

    \n Furthermore, there are valuation disparities between then and now. The\n S&P 500 as a whole, the S&P 500 excluding the Tech sector, and the\n five largest stocks by market capitalization are all less expensive today\n than they were 24 years ago, as the chart shows.\n <\/p>\n

In 2003, there was a group of four large\n tech stocks with the nickname of the “Four Housemen” (Intel, Microsoft,\n Cisco Systems, Dell) which had a P\/E ratio of 82.7. Today, the\n “Magnificent 7,” the seven largest technology-oriented stocks (Apple,\n Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon.com, NVIDIA, Tesla, and Meta Platforms) trade\n at a valuation of 38.3x price to earnings.\n <\/p>\n

      Staying invested and vigilant<\/h2>\n

      \n At this stage, we don\u2019t think this is Tech Bubble 2.0. But this is no\n reason to throw caution to the wind.\n <\/p>\n

      \n The S&P 500\u2019s surge since late October ranks with some of the biggest\n moves within a short time frame in market history. We think the market is\n bound to take a breather at some point and a pullback can\u2019t be ruled out.\n But precursors of bear markets\u2014lofty investor sentiment and declining\n market breadth\u2014are not yet in evidence.\n <\/p>\n

      \n Even though valuations are below where they were during the Tech Bubble\n peak in March 2000, the market is not inexpensive today. Valuations are\n above average and stretched, in our assessment, and typically don\u2019t stay\n at such levels for long periods of time.\n <\/p>\n

      \n RBC Global Asset Management Inc. Chief Economist Eric Lascelles estimates\n that the risk of a U.S. recession is about 40 percent. While this is down\n from about 70 percent last year, the risk is elevated compared to periods\n of economic calm. Some leading indicators are still signaling that an\n economic contraction can\u2019t be ruled out, especially if employment\n deteriorates and\/or inflation becomes sticky or increases.\n <\/p>\n

      \n We think these factors should be reflected by maintaining Market Weight\n positioning in U.S. equities with a watchful eye on market trends.\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
