Zayıf Performans Gösteren Hisseler, Etkinlik Açısından Büyük

Overlooked market areas may have a banner second half of the year.

Underperforming Sectors as Second-Half Opportunities

ETF Action co-founder Mike Akins is encouraging investors to boost exposure to groups that underperformed compared with major artificial intelligence stocks, particularly software and cloud computing names. Many of these companies have fallen from "nosebleed valuations" and now present "very strong growth scenarios." Akins emphasizes that these firms prove the enduring necessity of software for daily operations.

His focus also extends to disruptive technology as a strong buy for the next six months. This thematic strategy targets mid and small-cap stocks that have been overshadowed by the mega-cap, semiconductor-led market. Analysts project robust earnings growth for these names, suggesting a "rosy setup" for recovery.

The Magnificent Seven's Unexpected Stumble

Akins highlights opportunities among the underperforming "Magnificent Seven" index—comprising Nvidia, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Apple, and Tesla. Despite their dominance, the group has underperformed the Nasdaq-100 in the first half, declining over 2% while the index gained nearly 20%. However, early second-half trading shows momentum: the Magnificent Seven index rose 5% while the Nasdaq-100 dipped 1%.

Small-Cap Surge and Market Realignment

■Russell 2000 index, tracking small-cap stocks, is up nearly 20% year-to-date, outpacing the S&P 500's 11% gain.

■Akins anticipates small and mid-cap companies as favorable spots through 2027, citing their strong performance this year.

■"Down-market names are catching up," he notes, driven by earnings growth and multiple expansions after years of depression.

Kemal Tekin Notu: Bu tür yapısal yeniden dengelemeler, yatırımcıların büyük kapıtlı yatırımlardan ziyade daha erişilebilir ve daha yüksek büyüme potansiyeline sahip segmentlere yönelmesi gerektiğini gözler önüne seriyor. Özellikle yazılım ve bulut bilişim alanındaki daralan değerleme fırsatları, kısa vadeli getiri açısından cazip sunumlar oluşturabilir.
