Tech stocks have been hard-hit this year as investors worry about the Federal Reserve raising interest rates.
Charles Lemonides, founder and chief investment officer of ValueWorks, says that the downside is brutal, but that also creates an opportunity.
A big earnings miss last week from Netflix, which said it lost subscribers for the first time in over a decade, has added to recent uncertainty around Big Tech stocks.
