The only index of its kind, the STAX is a proprietary, behavior-based index that analyzes retail investor stock positions and trading activity from Schwab\u2019s millions of client accounts to illuminate what investors were actually doing and how they were positioned in the markets each month.<\/p>\n<p id=\"news-body-cta\">This press release features multimedia.

Retail investors continued to buy the dip, and the heaviest buying coincided with the mid-month market pullbacks during the weeks ended June 12 and 19<i>.<\/i> Economic data in June was familiar, with inflation ticking higher and jobs holding steady, and the Federal Reserve remained hawkish in Chairman Kevin Warsh\u2019s debut. At the end of May, the CME FedWatch Tool reflected a 50% chance for a rate hike later this year, and by June those odds shifted to nearly 83%.<\/p>\n<p>\nClient options activity was mixed in June, with net buying seen on popular broad-based index and ETF options as well as single-stock names. Elsewhere, options-trading clients appeared to take advantage of dispersion between index and single-stock volatility by selling elevated implied volatility. For some single-stock names, put selling outweighed call selling, suggesting a neutral-to-bullish market bias among those looking to generate income through short options strategies.<\/p>\n<p>\nAt the sector level, Information Technology again topped the net-buy list in June, followed by Communication Services and Consumer Discretionary. The top five buys were all components of these three sectors. Though selling activity was light, the other eight sectors were net-sold with Financials, Health Care and Consumer Staples bringing up the rear.<\/p>\n<p>\nFrom a generational perspective, STAX scores continued to rise across every age group in June, building on May\u2019s rebound. Generation X (1965\u20131980) remained the most bullish, continuing a recent trend and hitting a two-year high. Baby Boomers (1946\u20131964) trailed well behind and Millennials (1981\u20131996) were a close third. Generation Z (1997\u20132012) once again showed the most risk aversion.<\/p>\n<p>\nPopular names bought by Schwab clients during the period included:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nSpace Exploration Technologies Corp. (SPCX)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nNVIDIA Corp. (NVDA)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nMicron Technology Inc. (MU)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nMicrosoft Corp. (MSFT)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\nAmazon.com Inc.
