Stocks slipped this morning as the rotation out of high-flying tech stocks builds steam. The Nasdaq is down 4% for the month and is down for the fifth out of the past seven trading days. Inflation fears and worries over higher interest rates are rising which is one reason why investors are leaving the biggest pandemic winners like Apple (AAPL) and Microsoft (MSFT), for stocks that they feel present a better value.
