Amprius Technologies stock falls amid sector rotation

Amprius Technologies Inc. shares fell 5.02% as the stock crossed below its 5-day SMA, indicating a bearish trend.
The decline in Amprius's stock price occurred amid sector rotation, as investors shifted their focus to other sectors despite the overall market strength, with the Nasdaq-100 up 0.34% and the S&P 500 up 0.07%. This shift suggests that while the broader market is performing well, specific stocks like Amprius are experiencing downward pressure due to changing investor preferences.
This movement may indicate a reevaluation of growth stocks, particularly in the technology sector, as investors seek more stable opportunities in the current market environment.
