Nasdaq Ends 3-Day Losing Streak as Tech Stocks Rebound
The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.8% on Monday, ending a three-day losing streak, as technology stocks rebounded. Alphabet, Intel, Cisco, and Micron all posted gains, with investors buying on the dip after last week's sell-off.
The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.8% on Monday, snapping a three-day losing streak, buoyed by a rebound in the technology sector. The index had fallen sharply last week amid concerns over rising interest rates.
Potential Drivers
Major tech stocks led the rally, with Alphabet (GOOGL) up 1.2%, Intel (INTC) gaining 0.9%, Cisco (CSCO) rising 0.7%, and Micron (MU) adding 1.1%. The bounce was attributed to bargain hunting after recent declines, as well as a pullback in U.S. bond yields, which supported high-growth stocks.
Context
The Nasdaq had lost about 3% last week, its worst weekly performance in months, following hawkish comments from Federal Reserve officials. Monday's move suggests investors may be starting to pick up undervalued stocks.
Similar Moves in the Sector
The rally was broad-based, with other tech giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon also posting gains. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (SOX) rose 1.3%, reflecting strength across the semiconductor space.
