In a significant market event, Wall Street is set to shuffle $250 billion of shares due to quarterly index rebalancing, coinciding with a "triple witching" trading day. This reshuffle, the busiest in nearly four years, will see an increased weighting for Apple Inc. in major benchmarks following Warren Buffett's recent share sale.
Piper Sandler forecasts $40 billion in net buying for tech stocks, primarily driven by demand for Apple and new additions like Palantir Technologies and Dell Technologies. The reshuffle, influenced by updated S&P index rules, aims to better balance stock allocations, providing robust liquidity in the market despite potential volatility from $5.1 trillion in derivatives maturing.
Overall, the event signals a continued preference for technology shares amidst broader market fluctuations.
