The megacap technology stocks have been outperforming the broader market of late. The NYSE FANG+ index (XX:NYFANG) which includes Facebook (FB), Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN) and Apple (AAPL) has climbed 5% over the last month, compared with just 1% growth for the equal-weighted S&P 500 (XX:SP500EW).
Given the relief in bond yields, that makes intuitive sense.
