Goldman Sachs on stocks
Goldman Sachs on stocks: "Overall, equities [aka stocks] face rising correction risk; valuations are stretched, macro conditions are deteriorating at the margin and cracks are appearing across growth, inflation, credit and labour markets.

🔴Technology stocks are STRUGGLING:
World tech equities are underperforming other stocks by ~7 percentage points, one of the worst starts to a year in HISTORY.
