• On Monday, September 21, the Nasdaq hit a new all-time high for the first time since June.
• The index is being driven by a handful of tech megacaps that are now overvalued.
• Can we find opportunities among Nasdaq stocks that have been overlooked in recent months?

The hit a new all-time high on Monday, September 21, closing up 2.26% at 27,122.09 points. It was the index’s first record close since June and its biggest single-day gain since August 4. Over the past week, the Nasdaq rose 4.39%.

The rally was driven by several favorable factors. A more than 4% drop in U.S. crude oil prices eased inflation concerns that had weighed on markets last week following the Fed’s first rate hike in three years. Treasury yields also declined, while hopes for diplomatic progress around the UN General Assembly provided an additional boost to sentiment.

Technology stocks, however, were the main driver of the rally. The success of Muse, the AI agent developed by , reignited expectations for continued demand for advanced processors. Meta shares jumped more than 11%, while gained 12% and rose about 10%, pushing AMD’s market capitalization above $1 trillion. The S&P 500 gained 1.49% to 7,764.70 points, while the Dow Jones rose 0.71%.

A rally heavily concentrated in stocks that have become extremely expensive

However, the rally has been far from uniform. The index is being driven largely by its biggest technology companies, some of which are now trading at elevated valuations. According to InvestingPro’s Fair Value metric, which combines several recognized valuation models, AMD is overvalued by more than 33%, Intel by 44%, and Meta by 11%.

While these market leaders remain in the spotlight, other Nasdaq stocks have fallen sharply in recent weeks, in some cases despite stable fundamentals. With the index at record highs, investors could increasingly look beyond the market’s biggest winners toward stocks that have been overlooked during the rally.

Among these stocks are:

• (FRPT), the U.S. specialist in fresh, refrigerated dog and cat food sold through supermarkets and online channels. The stock has fallen 16.9% over the past month amid intensifying competition from Hill’s and The Farmer’s Dog, as well as insider selling by the CEO, despite solid second-quarter results.

• (WYNN) operates high-end casino and hotel resorts in Las Vegas, Boston, and Macau, which accounts for the bulk of its revenue. The stock has fallen 18.5% over the past month to a 52-week low, pressured by disappointing visitor numbers in Macau in September, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and a $900 million bond issue carrying a 6.875% interest rate, adding to a debt load of nearly $10.7 billion. However, second-quarter results exceeded expectations, with adjusted EPS of $1.24 versus the $1.16 consensus. The Wynn Al Marjan Island project in the United Arab Emirates is also scheduled to open in September 2027.
