Today's Research Reports on Stocks to Watch: Celgene and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2017 / U.S. markets dipped Monday as the Tech sector's sell-off continued for the second consecutive session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.17 percent to close at 21,235.67, while the S&P 500 Index fell 0.10 percent to close at 2,429.39. In comparison, the Nasdaq Composite Index fell 0.52 percent to close at 6,175.46. The Tech sector's sell off was triggered last Friday after Goldman Sachs warned of a "valuation air pocket" for major tech stocks such as Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft and Facebook, who have all made major contributions to the market's record rally.

"This outperformance, driven by secular growth and the death of the reflation narrative, has created positioning extremes, factor crowding and difficult-to-decipher risk narratives," said Robert Boroujerdi, an analyst at Goldman Sachs, in a note.
