US equities rallied sharply Tuesday as technology stocks staged a powerful comeback heading into quarter-end, with Deutsche Bank strategists highlighting the strong risk-on sentiment driving markets. The Magnificent 7 tech giants led the rebound, lifting the broader S&P 500 and breaking a five-day losing streak that had pressured markets throughout the previous week. The surge positions the benchmark index to potentially deliver its strongest quarterly performance in six years, signaling renewed investor confidence in growth stocks despite recent volatility.
The tech-driven recovery comes at a critical juncture as institutional investors rebalance portfolios before quarterly reporting deadlines. Traders and asset managers are closely monitoring whether this momentum can sustain beyond window-dressing activity typically seen in the final trading sessions of a quarter. The outperformance of mega-cap technology names suggests risk appetite is returning after recent concerns over valuations and economic uncertainty.
FXnCO Insight
Position for continued tech outperformance in early April, but watch for potential profit-taking once quarter-end flows subside and institutional rebalancing completes.
