The highest profile technology stocks have been lagging, but a new set of smaller companies appears to be breaking out.
The Russell 2000 small-cap ETF (IWM) has risen more than 6 percent in the last week. The Nasdaq-100, dominated by huge names Apple (AAPL) and Amazon.com (AMZN), has inched lower over the same period.
