Technology stocks offer investors the promise of growth in ways few other sectors can. After all, tech is synonymous with innovation, spawning new products, services, and features.
Rotation among players in the artificial intelligence buildout has led tech stocks on a wild ride this year, first underperforming and then outdoing the rest of the market. “We still see pockets of opportunities in the tech sector,” says Brian Colello, Morningstar senior analyst. “In software, many names have sold off out of AI fears in 2026, but the selloff still appears too punitive relative to fundamentals.”
Year to date, the Morningstar US Technology Index rose 24.21%, while the Morningstar US Total Market Index gained 14.31%.
