Bank of America Q1 2026 Stock Picks: Big Tech Laggard Bet Signals Risk Rotation and What BTC, ETH Traders Should Watch

According to CNBC, Bank of America highlighted a list of stocks it is betting on for the first quarter of 2026, noting that the basket includes a Big Tech laggard, as reported via a CNBC tweet on Jan 2, 2026, with no specific tickers disclosed. Source: CNBC (Twitter, Jan 2, 2026). For crypto traders, shifts in Big Tech positioning can influence risk sentiment because BTC and ETH have shown positive rolling correlations with the Nasdaq-100 during risk-on regimes, making it prudent to monitor QQQ/NDX alongside BTC and ETH price action for cross-asset confirmation.

Andrew Ng Launches Turing-AGI Test: 6 Expert Signals for Real-World AI; What Traders Should Watch in AMD, MSFT, IBM and AI Tokens

According to @DeepLearningAI, Andrew Ng introduced the Turing-AGI Test in the New Year issue of The Batch to evaluate AI systems on real, economically useful work rather than hype, published Jan 2, 2026, on X. According to @DeepLearningAI, the same issue highlights six practical perspectives tied to enterprise adoption: IBM’s David Cox on Open Source Wins, Princeton’s Adji Bousso Dieng on AI for Scientific Discovery, Microsoft’s Juan M. Lavista Ferres on education that works with AI, Allen Institute’s Tanmay Gupta on moving from prediction to action, UC San Diego’s Pengtao Xie on multimodal models for biomedicine, and AMD’s Sharon Zhou on community-building chatbots.

According to @CNBC, an analyst said many ETFs compete on price, but fees should not always drive the investment decision for traders and investors; source: CNBC social post dated Jan 2, 2026.
