Last week’s turbulence in the tech sector left a mark on fund flows. Technology funds absorbed a record $9.3 billion in outflows according to Deutsche Bank. The trend captures just how quickly sentiment shifted as AI spending concerns and the OpenAI IPO delay news rattled investor conviction.

U.S.-focused funds bore the brunt of the exodus, shedding $8.5 billion, while global funds attracted $14.4 billion in fresh capital, a deliberate rotation away from concentrated U.S. tech exposure. Overall equity positioning slipped slightly below neutral, suggesting the market’s most enthusiastic bulls are taking a step back to reassess rather than doubling down at current levels.

The Nasdaq Composite is opening the week on steadier footing on U.S.-Iran ceasefire hopes. Nasdaq 100 futures are climbing 1.2% as tech stocks attempt to reclaim ground after last week’s sharp swings rattled the sector and sent the index down 5.2% for the week. S&P 500 futures are adding 0.9% and Dow futures are rising 240 points, or 0.5%, as a combination of tech resilience and easing geopolitical tension sets a constructive tone for Monday’s session.
Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:ARM | ARM Price Prediction) is leading the premarket charge with a 1.9% advance, while Marvell Technology (NASDAQ:MRVL) is adding 1.6% and Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) is up 1.1%. SpaceX (NASDAQ:SPCX) is also set to open 2% higher after the Nasdaq announced it will be fast-tracked onto the Nasdaq 100 next month. Comcast (NASDAQ:CMCSA) is the session’s standout outside of tech, surging 23% after announcing plans to spin off its media and technology businesses into two separate publicly traded companies, with the separation expected to close within approximately a year.

The U.S. and Iran agreed Sunday to pause hostilities and restore free commercial transit through the Strait of Hormuz following a weekend of military exchanges that had threatened to derail the broader peace process. For a market that spent much of last week pricing in escalating risk, the ceasefire development is a welcome development heading into a week that will test whether last week’s selloff was a healthy reset or the start of something more prolonged.

Here’s a look at where things stand as of pre-morning trading:

Dow Jones Industrial Average: 52,143 Up 0.52%
Nasdaq Composite: 25,632 Up 1.3%
S&P 500: 7,413 Up 0.81%
