accumulate aware easier fed great investor late looking next problems rally small start stock summer tech technology three trading vigorous weak worried
I think it's too late to be worried about where your tech stock is going to go from here. There are some opportunities out there and we are aware of the short-term problems in the marketplace with the Fed being aggressive. So, we're not looking for a very vigorous rally over the next one to three months. There will be trading rallies.

analysis breaking broken cheap close companies earnings estimates ibm listed market next premium quality research service stock technical technology trading types
In technology, IBM ( IBM : Research , Estimates ) is more of a technical analysis play. The stock has broken out, or getting very close to breaking out, of a trading range. And I think the market's still going to give a premium to quality companies in technology. IBM being listed doesn't get that Nasdaq appeal, however.

Higher interest rates are an impediment to companies where cost is important and that's Old Economy stocks, ... What we are seeing is a defensive move into technology stocks.

The idea is that interest rates will affect the old-economy companies more, because they are more interest rate sensitive. You will probably have less of an effect on technology stocks, and there is a lot of bargain-hunting going on. I think investors are a little more comfortable coming into these blue chips down 30 percent.

Nothing is negative out there but there's such little commitment. The tone of the market is that technology still looks lackluster.

This market, while not being the raging bull, certainly has some merits for investing. If you (cross) out technology, you have a market with a great deal of underlying strength.
ability attitudes expressing forward lone market positive technology toward transition upside voice week
It's a transition market. I think (last week) indicated the willingness to look forward at the upside of the story. There isn't a lone voice expressing positive attitudes toward technology but this week indicated the ability of the market to look forward.

For those who are tech players, it's going to leave those stocks that may have some concerns over future earnings and it's going to stay there.
