Tech ETF Hits Record In 2018, Surpassing Peak From March 2000: (XLK)

FYI: It nearly took 20 years, but the bursting of the dot-com bubble has at long last been fully repaired.

The largest technology sector exchange-traded fund has hit record levels in the early trading days of 2018, surpassing a record that has stood since March 2000, which represented the peak of the dot-com era, and was followed by a massive collapse in the value of tech stocks.

The old record of $65.44 was first breached on Jan. 4, and the fund has seen further gains since. The Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF XLK, -0.09% last traded at $66.56, up slightly on the day. It has gained 4% thus far this year, the third-best performing sector ETF behind energy and materials.

Ted
