Interesting this reset in growth stocks hasn't spilled over to broad indices...yet.
Most indices are still trading near their ATHs and this suggests that this sell-off in growth land is simply a normal rotation after massive run and not the start of a broad based bear-market.
History doesn't repeat but this sell-off in the high growth stocks appears to be similar to the rotation we experienced in autumn 2019.
Back then, growth stocks tanked temporarily whereas the broad indices stayed strong. That was followed by a powerful rally and new highs.
Between March '20-Feb '21, due to COVID-19, capital flocked to the obvious winners (ecommerce, software, streaming etc) and fled from the most affected industries.
This caused a massive distortion in the markets and pushed the winners to absurd valuations.

Commentary -
During the month, I made a few changes --> sold a few over-extended and disappointing stocks and bought into some new hyper-growth, more reasonably valued SPACs....
When I post about a company, I always disclose my personal interest (if any). I don't have to do this but do so out of courtesy and ethics, so others know if I have skin in the game or not.
I never tell anybody to buy or sell any security, neither...
... do I know who follows my account or reads my posts.
So, the notion that I pump stocks for my personal gain is ridiculous! For starters, I predominantly invest in mid to large-cap companies (not micro-caps or penny stocks) and even if a stock moves a bit due to my post,...
...as someone who tends to own shares for weeks/months and even years, any movement over a single day is largely irrelevant.
I post my thoughts on here because am passionate about investing and happy to share the knowledge I've picked up over the past 20+ years. Thats all.
