☆ These are the most overbought stocks after Trump's win this week
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-08 | by ( Pia Singh | In | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Several software companies could be due for a pullback after the stock market's roaring rally this week, fueled by president-elect Donald Trump's election victory as well as robust quarterly earnings reports. Shares of video game makers Take-Two Interactive Software and Electronic Arts are two of the stocks that are technically overbought right now, according to the analysis. The most overbought stock this week was human capital management software company Dayforce, with an RSI of 92.4. But higher prices and expectations of normalizing pricing, which helped Coke guide its organic revenue growth this year to the high end of a prior forecast, could lead the stocks higher. Other oversold stocks include power generation company AES , as well as radio frequency equipment maker Qorvo and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals — the latter two of which were also oversold the previous week.

Donald Trump's second presidency could help supercharge small cap stocks further, according to Fundstrat managing partner and head of research Tom Lee. "Since 1987 small caps traded on a median price-to-earnings [ratio] at a premium basis to the S & P 500, and the S & P 500 is at 17 times. I think small caps could over the next couple of years outperform by more than 100%," Lee told CNBC's " Squawk Box " on Friday. Lee is also bullish on equities more broadly, and doesn't limit his optimistic outlook to only small caps. He also forecast the S & P 500 could break above 6,000 before the end of the year and top 6,700 in 2025.

CNBC's Jim Cramer on Wednesday told investors the Trump administration is more likely to allow mergers and acquisitions to go through, processes largely stymied under Biden. "I am very confident in the idea that, under President Trump, M&A's about to come back and come back bigly," he said. Beyond M&A, Cramer said the President-elect is likely to relax antitrust regulations, whereas Biden appointees have scrutinized Big Tech outfits like Apple . But while Cramer suggested these companies are likely safer from regulatory interference under Trump, he said some of that depends on Trump's own attitude towards them. "So, it's not a surprise to see most of America's big name tech CEOs come out today with enthusiastic, public messages of congratulations for President-elect Trump," he said.
