This post was originally published on this site

Despite a strong selloff in 2022, the tech valuations are not as cheap as this year’s pullback may suggest, Bernstein analysts wrote in a client note.

The analysts don’t expect tech stocks to grow at a material premium to the wider market, hence they reiterated a Market Weight rating on the sector.

Here are some key stats explaining the recent performance of the tech sector, as per Bernstein:

The analysts recommended investors take a “balanced barbell between expensive/growth and inexpensive/value tech stocks” in 2023. Some of the least expensive stocks include Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM), Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), Micron (NASDAQ:MU), HP (NYSE:HPQ), Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE:HPE), eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY), and Dell (NYSE:DELL).

On the other hand, Snowflake (NYSE:SNOW), Datadog (NASDAQ:DDOG), DoorDash (NYSE:DASH), Zscaler (NASDAQ:ZS), and Roblox (NYSE:RBLX) are some of the most expensive tech stocks.
