Global investor exposure to tech stocks highest since 2020, Bank of America Survey shows

The proportion of investors who are 'overweight' on tech has climbed to 37%, marking the highest level since August 2020. This surge in enthusiasm suggests that investors are becoming more confident in the long-term growth potential of the sector, particularly as digital transformation continues across industries.

A significant portion of respondents, around 45%, believe an AI bubble could form next year, while 42% disagree. Investors should watch for signs of overheating and monitor how these large institutional positions evolve in the coming months.
