This year's stock market rally has been led by just a few large tech names.
While it might seem concerning to have too much riding on a handful of stocks, strategists say the trend may not be a bad thing for markets.
"We see a small group of tech winners leading stock gains as a feature of the artificial intelligence (AI) theme - not a flaw," Jean Boivin, head of BlackRock Investment Institute, wrote in a research note on Monday. "We stay overweight U.S. stocks."
