Hedge funds are significantly reducing their holdings in U.S. technology and media sector stocks.

According to Goldman Sachs, hedge funds have been rapidly exiting U.S. technology and media sector stocks over the past six months.

Between February 14-20, the movement of hedge funds exiting technology and media stocks reached its highest level since August 2023.
In the last two weeks, the technology sector has been the most net-sold sector by hedge funds.
Investors are shifting their funds toward more stable sectors due to uncertainty around the U.S. Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy, moving capital into the energy and industrial sectors.

While this trend may put short-term pressure on technology stocks, analysts emphasize that there are still opportunities for long-term investors.
