Or are the stocks that are now hated going to turn out to be precursors of the next downturn? Of all the techs I follow, I think ServiceNow probably had the best quarter. We know what to pay when we think a stock is going up, which is the going price. Next thing you know that stock is down to $143 and you say to yourself, should I buy it back? In that case, you need to sell stocks pretty aggressively until we get oversold, raising cash to 10% like us.

Aug 2 (Reuters) - DXC Technology (DXC.N) on Wednesday posted weaker-than-expected quarterly sales and lowered its annual revenue forecast, as the IT services provider grapples with tough competition and lower spending from businesses worried about a turbulent economy. DXC said it now expects annual revenue to range between $13.88 billion and $14.03 billion, compared with its prior prediction of $14.40 billion to $14.55 billion. The company also generates sizeable revenue from outside the United States which makes it vulnerable to exchange rate fluctuations and geopolitical issues in an already uncertain market. For the quarter to June 30, the company reported revenue of $3.45 billion, missing analysts' average estimate of $3.56 billion, according to Refinitiv data. The company's adjusted profit fell to 63 cents per share in the quarter, compared with estimates of 82 cents.

Two things will capture all the market's attention in the coming week: The Federal Reserve's March meeting and the government's ongoing attempt to quell worries about the banking system.
