The wild market action has us teetering between an undervalued and overvalued condition. So far, we have no clear trend. The recent volatility changes things almost daily. This week, we saw some real gyrations in tech thanks to the ongoing Facebook scandal and other issues&#8211;such as the attacks on Amazon.com emanating from within the White House.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen how this will all pan out. We would like to see some sort of return to &#8220;normalcy&#8221; within Washington so that we can avoid any sort of self-inflicted wounds vis-a-vis trade, the tech sector, etc. We should be basking in the strong economic numbers, the good jobs picture, the possibility of rising wages&#8211;finally!&#8211;the signed budget deal, and other good news.<\/p>\n<h1><strong>Sector Talk&#8211;Technology
