Since last year, inflationary pressures and the Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate hikes have led to a sell-off in the high-growth tech names. However, the tech industry is well-positioned for growth due to rising investments in digital transformation by enterprises and the rising demand for advanced tech solutions.

Therefore, it could be wise to buy fundamentally strong tech stocks Juniper Networks, Inc. (JNPR), Digi International Inc. (DGII), and Cambium Networks Corporation (CMBM). They are likely to capitalize on the industry tailwinds and look well-positioned for explosive growth.

The spending on new technology is expected to increase further as more companies use advanced technologies across their operations. According to the latest forecast by Gartner, worldwide IT spending is projected to reach $4.6 trillion in 2023, an increase of 5.5% year-over-year.

With new developments and trends emerging every year, the tech industry has become one of the fastest-growing industries. The global technology market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 25.7%, reaching $3.17 billion by 2027. Moreover, investors’ interest in tech stocks is evident from the Technology Select Sector SPDR ETF’s (XLK) 21.7% returns over the past six months.

Given these factors, it could be wise to buy the featured stocks.
