    June 8, 2026, 7:09 AM EDT. Morgan Stanley's top stock-market strategist, Mike Wilson, describes the recent record pullback in tech stocks as a 'healthy reset' rather than a sign of market trouble. Wilson attributes this optimism to improving corporate earnings and the positive economic backdrop, which continue to support the broader stock market.
