The ongoing artificial intelligence frenzy that briefly made Nvidia Corp the world’s most valuable company this week also drove record inflows into tech funds, said Bank of America Corp strategists.<\/p>\n
About $8.7 billion flowed into tech funds in the week through June 19, according to a note from the bank citing EPFR Global data. <\/p>\n
“The ‘all roads lead to Nvidia’ trade is once again bolstered” as Europe falters amid the political turmoil in France, strategist Michael Hartnett said. <\/p>\n
US stocks notched yet another record high this week as Nvidia hit $3.3 trillion in market capitalisation, briefly overtaking Microsoft Corp as the biggest company in the world. <\/p>\n
A range of Wall Street strategists, including at Goldman Sachs Group Inc, have boosted their year-end targets for the S&P 500 Index in recent days. Still, while investors still feel they need more exposure to AI-related plays, “all asset allocators are concerned about the equity concentration risk,” said Hartnett.<\/p>\n
At the same time, the rally in European stocks has faltered after the snap election call in France. European equity funds recorded a fifth straight week of outflows at $1 billion. Global equity funds, on the other hand, had additions of $25.6 billion, the biggest since March.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, US stocks drifted towards a quiet close of the week Friday, as Nvidia shares continued to cool from its startling run.<\/p>\n
The S&P 500 was 0.2% lower in morning trading, though it was still near its all-time high set on Tuesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 49 points, or 0.1%, as of 10 am ET, and the Nasdaq composite was 0.3% lower.<\/p>\n
Nvidia again was dragging on the market after falling 2.9%. Its stock has soared over 1,000% since October 2022 on frenzied demand for its chips, which are powering much of the world’s move into AI technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
