Technology shares, explained
'Technology' isn't one business. It spans companies that design chips, rent out computing power, write software you pay for monthly, make phones, or run the websites you use every day - and their fortunes don't all move together.
Tech has led the market for much of the past decade, which also means high hopes are often already priced in - a risk of its own. Being in a fast-growing sector is context to understand, not a verdict; each name below links to its plain-English explainer.
Why should I care?
Tech is the sector most likely to be over-hyped and over-owned - understanding what sits under the label helps you tell a real business from a story, and see how much future growth you're already paying for.
