BofA strategists warn of tech bubble, suggest QQQ call options

Bank of America strategists said investors worried about holding tech giants can still participate in the rally through equity derivatives while cushioning against a potential bubble burst. They flagged that the Nasdaq 100’s advance is being driven by only a handful of AI-related stocks, raising concerns of a narrow-breadth bubble. For investors fearing they will miss out, the strategists called buying call options on the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF an attractive, risk-limited way to gain upside exposure.

AI take

The strategists' preference for options over cash exposure is itself a signal: it implies the firm's own base case includes meaningful drawdown risk, not just upside. That matters for anyone using broad tech indices as a proxy for AI exposure, since narrow leadership means index-level hedging may not track the actual concentration risk. Whether options-based participation becomes the default posture for institutional allocators — rather than a tactical trade — is the open question worth watching.
