1-28-26 Big Tech Drives Market Highs | Before the Bell

Markets finished Tuesday at fresh all-time highs as leadership rotated back into mega-cap stocks. After a strong run in small- and mid-caps, those areas are now short-term overbought and nearing sell signals, while the S&P 500 itself is triggering a buy signal at more favorable levels. Earnings expectations are elevated, and upside surprises from mega-cap technology are largely priced in. The market's reaction will hinge less on reported results and more on forward guidance—particularly outlooks for data center and AI-driven capital expenditures. With futures higher this morning, markets appear positioned for another strong open. However, leadership remains narrow, and the ongoing bifurcation between mega-cap growth and the rest of the market continues to warrant close attention to portfolio risk and positioning.
