Tech Stocks Lead the 2023 Stock Market Rally as Other Companies Join the Party

The 2023 stock market rally has entered a healthier phase, with sectors like financials and small caps surging. Research shows that 78% of S&P 500 stocks were above their 200-day moving average last week, indicating broad market strength. The rally is no longer solely driven by the Magnificent 7 tech stocks, as other stocks in the S&P 500 have joined the front. Stocks like Bath & Body Works, Illumina, and Norwegian Cruise Lines have outperformed the Magnificent 7 in the past month. The market rally has also broadened out to include sectors like Financials, Industrials, and Real Estate. If this trend continues, it could indicate a healthier and more sustainable bull market for 2023.
