Buy 3 Tech Stocks on the Dip to Strengthen Your Portfolio in Q4

The recent bull market on Wall Street has shown no signs of abatement even after three years. Although most of the rally has been driven by an unprecedented adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology across the world, cyclical sectors, such as industrials, financials, consumer discretionary and utilities have also taken part. 

The bull run is expected to continue in the near future supported by a resilient U.S. economy, a declining inflation rate, solid earnings results, and the Fed’s re-initiation of a low-interest rate regime and accommodative monetary policies.

Despite the rally, several technology stocks have slid from their 52-week highs and are currently available at attractive valuations. Here we recommend three such stocks with a favorable Zacks Rank. These are: DocuSign Inc. DOCU, Reddit Inc. RDDT and Fair Isaac Corp. FICO. Each of our picks currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
