Tech stocks are still the main attraction for seasoned and new investors, as we continue to see these businesses move from initial hype to revenues and profits reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the other end of the spectrum, Australian eToro users appeared to lose patience with China\u2019s Prosus (-16%), a major shareholder in Beijing\u2019s tech giant Tencent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis investor exodus continues from Q4, when Prosus also saw a 16 per cent drop in Aussie holders following news of new Chinese regulations announced in December that intend to curb spending on video games.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnother company that saw a significant QoQ fall was Airbnb (-11%), as its legal battles, negative feedback on policies and broader controversy surrounding short-term rentals amid a cost of living crisis continue to affect investor sentiment.\u201d<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>eToro stocks most widely held\/position last quarter<\/h2>\n\n<p>What interests Josh most, however is just how sticky lithium stocks are \u2013 investors just aren\u2019t willing to give up on them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLithium shares have seen significant drawdowns in the last 12 months. We\u2019re in the midst of a lithium winter, with EV demand slowing, and lithium miners are at the whim of falling lithium prices that continue to fall, whilst inflation and high interest rates elevate the cost of initiating new projects,\u201d Josh says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, short-term fluctuations aren\u2019t deterring long-term investors from what seems to be the inevitable transition to electric vehicles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instead, according to eToro data, they\u2019re seeing the drawdown in businesses like <a href=\"https:\/\/stockhead.com.au\/company\/pilbara-minerals-pls\/\"><strong>Pilbara Minerals (ASX:PLS)<\/strong><\/a> as an opportunity to own a quality business at a lower price for the long term.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, retail investors are increasingly looking for opportunities in European stocks while holding firm on AI and weight loss drug leaders, Josh reckons.<\/p>\n<p>He says this insight comes ahead of a widely predicted market rotation away from US and tech and towards Europe and emerging markets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEuropean firms on the list include weight loss drugmaker Novo-Nordisk, Spanish energy firm Repsol, and German defense stock Rheinmetall, with the latter seeing a massive 80% share price jump so far in 2024 as military spending grows due to the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict.\u201d<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Biggest movers on eToro QoQ<\/h2>\n\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/stockhead.com.au\/experts\/josh-gilbert-sticky-asx-lithium-proving-more-than-just-a-honey-trap\/\">Josh Gilbert: Sticky ASX lithium proving more than just a honey trap<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/stockhead.com.au\/\">Stockhead<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>eToro releases Q1 Top Stocks, AI, Big Tech, lithium in focus Nivida, Taiwan Semiconductor, AMD top 3 risers in Australia AI buzz grows for Nvidia, <a href=\"https:\/\/economicherald.net\/?p=7941\" class=\"read-more-link\">[more&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":7942,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-finance"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
