Tom Lee, Head of Research at Fundstrat, has indicated that while the "Big Seven Tech" companies have emerged from their bear market, other sectors may face a "rolling bear market" by late 2026. Speaking on May 27, Lee highlighted ongoing market risks, despite strong demand for AI supporting major indices. He noted that market divergence is expected to increase. Lee identified three potential disruptions: volatility from the midterm election cycle, selling pressure from tech IPO lock-up expirations, and energy supply constraints, with energy posing the most immediate threat. He remains optimistic about U.S. energy independence and AI-driven productivity, advising investors to focus on companies with strong earnings certainty and control over scarce resources. Despite signs of overheating in the semiconductor sector, AI suppliers and tech leaders continue to attract short-term capital momentum.
