How will tech earnings compare with the last quarter?

Q4 tech earnings season is here, and all eyes are on the performance of U.S. heavyweights such as Amazon, Apple and Netflix.

Big tech stocks have been largely stagnant in 2022 in an environment of inflation, tight monetary policy and shifting consumer demands – and these factors were reflected in their largely mediocre October results. It remains to be seen if the FAANG+ giants will post promising seasonal numbers this time – and if any improvements will be enough to give the industry a boost.

Can I short tech stocks?
