With so much happening in the tech space, are these tech stocks worth paying attention to?

Top Tech Stocks To Buy [Or Avoid] Right Now.

Tech stocks have been on many investors’ radar again. The first two months of 2021 saw the sector rise to unprecedented highs. It was so impressive that the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite had reached an all-time high last month. The index has since taken a breather along with the broader market. What had fuelled this epic rise in the tech sector? Many companies that thrived in this digital acceleration in the last year were tech companies. With that, tech stocks proliferated in that time span. As the pandemic forced many people to stay at home and businesses to shift online, demand for tech products and services skyrocketed.

You only need to look at top tech stocks like Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) and Okta (NASDAQ: OKTA) to see how successful they have become. Both stocks have doubled in valuation in the last year itself. Marvell develops and produces semiconductors and related technology while Okta provides cloud software to companies. Both industries enjoyed explosive growth when more people stayed at home and businesses shifted online. Given all of this, would it still be a good time for investors to jump into tech stocks? I believe so given how many people have already adapted to the pandemic era and given how the conveniences from tech are here to stay. With that in mind, here is a list of top tech stocks to watch in the stock market today.
