Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) massive forecast upside fueled the latest wave of buying, sending tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 to fresh 13-month highs.

“Despite a resilient equity market and the frenzy in the Tech space, broad equity exposure is neutral at best. So fairly symmetric from a risk-reward standpoint, rather than a particular threat to the equity market, in our view. Meanwhile, significant dry powder in the form of large cash holdings means investors may continue to buy dips, as they have done so far this year,” they said in a client note.
The strategists also highlight that systematic funds and hedge funds are the main buyers of stocks recently while mutual funds and retail traders remain cautious.
