So far in 2025, many stocks in the United States technology sector are still stuck in first gear. As of the Mar. 7 close, the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA: XLK), which measures the performance of S&P 500 tech stocks, has returned -6%. That is the second worst out of all the SPDR S&P 500 ETFs. It is only beating out the consumer discretionary sector, which has provided a total return of -8%. Among 96 U.S. large-cap tech stocks, only 33 have provided a positive total return in 2025 as of the Mar. 7 close.
Evidently, although performance has been weak across most of the sector, some stocks are rising above the noise. Below, is a look at three stocks that are among the best performers in the U.S. tech sector as winter nears its close.
