The S&P 500 could soon head to a new high if tech stocks can act as a booster to the broader market instead of a drag.
For the week, tech has gained 1.3%, though it was slightly negative Thursday. For the year, tech is one of the three worst sectors, up just 5.6% versus the 11.8% gain in the S&P 500.
“The question is was that a broken bounce in those names and is it almost over, or could they sustain a move over the next few weeks which would also sustain sentiment for the S&P to hit new highs heading into the Fed meeting June 16,” said Scott Redler, partner with T3Live.com.
