Analyzing the past 30 days, technology and healthcare sectors seem to have shown a mixed performance but with notable momentum build-up toward the latter part of the period. Stocks like NVDA, MSFT, and CRM in the tech sector, and ISRG and RMD in healthcare, registered notable volume and price activity. The tech sector, while fluctuating, displayed signs of a bullish reversal in certain tickers closer to the recent days, especially post earnings season. The healthcare sector continued to show resilience, possibly driven by post-earnings bullish momentum as observed in ISRG and RMD.
