The tech giants have ruled the roost for years, but let's be real—2026 is shaping up differently. Sure, the Magnificent Seven still pack a punch, but the narrative is shifting.
Here's the thing: when everyone chases the same seven names, you get concentration risk. The smart money's already diversifying. We're seeing capital rotate into overlooked sectors, emerging assets, and alternative plays. Crypto's been the canary in the coal mine here—when traditional markets get too narrow, digital assets catch the overflow.
The 2026 story isn't about which mega-cap wins. It's about who sees the fragmentation coming. Bet on breadth over breadth. Multiple winners. Multiple narratives. The days of a single investment thesis carrying the whole year? Over.
What's your take—rotating already or holding the line with the usual suspects?

Haha, here comes the manipulation of retail investors again with rotation? I think, the Seven Heroes haven't finished cutting enough chives yet, so they have to craft stories to lure people into chasing new concepts.
Speaking of which, funds are indeed moving around. But wake up, everyone. The reason why some things are overlooked and cheap is not without cause—either due to technical saturation or a dying capital pool. No matter how you talk about "fragmentation," it can't escape the eternal zeroing out of the market.
Don't be fooled by "multiplex narratives." The market is only so big, and the money pouring into small-cap stocks will eventually have to cut a new batch of chives.

Wait, can the fund flow data confirm this? I've been monitoring whale wallets over the past two weeks, and large transfers related to Mag7 have actually been increasing...

Really, rotation? I'm still betting on the Seven Giants, and I’ve lost a ton.
Wait, are you saying it's time to diversify? What about my pile of Dogecoin...
Fragmentation sounds good, but honestly, who has the energy to follow so many projects? Just stick with the big companies.
The smart money has long since run away, and retail investors like us are still chasing from behind.
I don’t buy it. Let’s see next year.
That makes sense, but I’ve already gone all-in and can’t change my mind now, haha.
The story of 2026? I haven’t even finished plotting my story for 2024.
Diversifying risk sounds good, but the execution is too poor. It’s still easier to HODL.
Rotation? Please, I can barely keep up with the pace.
This isn’t rotation, it’s just cutting the leeks.

It's been in rotation for a while, holding onto the big seven all along makes you the bagholder...
---
Wait, no, I still have some positions in the big seven, but I'm really slowly shifting into altcoins.
---
In crypto, I've indeed sensed the shift in trend, moving faster than traditional finance by half a beat.
---
Such a high concentration can't be stable... it'll definitely disperse sooner or later.
---
I agree with the narrative approach, but frankly, retail investors just can't keep up with the pace.
---
The big seven still have a solid foundation; they won't collapse overnight, but it's definitely other things' turn.
---
Damn, isn't this exactly what I've been thinking about recently? Feels like smart money is really moving.
---
The key is not to wait until the rotation is complete to jump in; by then, the prices will have already exploded.

It's been going on for a while, and still clinging to the Seven Sisters, slowly having to cut losses.

It's been rotating for a long time, while others are still copying the Seven Great Golden Dragons, I have already run away to flip coins.
---
Concentrating risk is correct, but most people just can't change their habit of chasing the hot trends.
---
Cryptocurrency is the real signal light; traditional markets react half a beat slower.
---
Those who stick with familiar faces, get ready to be harvested.
---
Diverse narratives sound good, but the key is to have the courage to go all in on small-cap coins.
---
I like this article; finally someone dares to talk about fragmentation.
---
Capital rotation has been happening for a while; the problem is whether you can keep up.
---
Seven names are tired to play with; now it's about who has the fastest cognition.

It's been obvious for a while that the seven giants' gameplay is coming to an end.
The rotation has already begun, but most people haven't realized it yet.
Diversified investment? I've already gone all in on altcoins; the traditional giants' returns are too weak.
Honestly, who still focuses only on those seven? They should be gathering dust.
Cryptocurrency is truly the overflow outlet, nothing else.
The era of diversification has arrived; the single narrative is truly dead.
Just watch, by 2026 it will be clear. Those still clinging to the big players will regret it.
