This week:
- China announced a ban on initial coin offerings on Monday which caused cryptocurrencies to stumble briefly. This ban could go beyond ICOs based on the language of the ban which may include cryptocurrency exchanges. But that isn't the only blow to cryptocurrency this week. Nobel prize-winning economist Robert Shiller said bitcoin is the best example of a bubble in the market today. Shiller is known for calling the last two bubbles before they happened and as the author of "Irrational Exuberance."
- Scott Kessler is the director of equity research at CFRA Research and leads the tech coverage for his team. Kessler says tech is reasonably valued and is right in line with the market. He doesn't see the excess valuations that people are talking about. CFRA Research has a 'Buy' recommendation on all the FANG (Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google) stocks. Kessler also shares his favorite tech stock which is one of the worst 10 performers in the tech sector year-to-date.
- Fidelity Investment sector strategist Denise Chisholm recently published her quarterly sector update. Sara Silverstein shares an interesting takeaway from Chisholm's research that points to the differences in tech companies today versus the days of the tech bubble.
