The technology sector has been one of the biggest victims of the recent market rout triggered by escalation in U.S.-China trade war and inversion of the yield curve. In particular, the technology companies have large exposure to China. Additionally, increased regulatory concerns also took toll on the sector. This has made the sector attractive to investors.

Additionally, the macro fundamentals seem to be recovering this week given the renewed trade optimism and global easy policies. In the latest trade development, Washington extended a 90-day temporary license allowing China’s Huawei Technologies to continue doing business with U.S. firms. Trade talks between the United States and China are also set to resume anytime soon (read: Global Stimulus & Huawei Relief Boost Markets: ETFs in Focus).

Further, the sector outlook looks promising with the rapid adoption of cutting-edge technology such as cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, wearables, VR headsets, drones, virtual reality, AI and machine that will fuel growth. The deployment of 5G technology — the next wireless revolution — is creating further opportunities. The wave of mergers and acquisitions is also providing further impetus to the space.

As such, investors should take advantage of the beaten down prices. For them, we have highlighted some solid ETF picks that were in red over the past month but have a solid upside potential. All these have a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy).
