Technology in 2023: Earnings revision and AI wave lead to tech stock recovery

In 2023, two dominant themes shaped the technology sector. First, companies recognized the need to cut costs and increase profitability due to rising interest rates and lower valuations. This led to an earnings revision cycle that supported stock prices. Second, the AI wave emerged, with chat GPT being a popular application. Now, there is a secular growth theme around AI and a focus on restrained investments, which contributed to the recovery of tech stocks. These trends played a crucial role in the performance of technology in the past year.
