Michael Kao: Macro sentiment weakens despite strong earnings from tech leaders
Tech earnings strong, but macro sentiment weakens

Earnings season has arrived, with several major technology companies releasing positive results. However, macro sentiment in the market has become unstable, according to Michael Kao, chief investment officer at Akadia Capital.

Kao recently noted that the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) showed signs of a capitulation bottom, after he purchased short-term call options amid perceived overselling. Earlier this month, he highlighted renewed volatility in TLT as the double-bottom pattern broke down and market volatility intensified. The fund’s price action continues to draw close scrutiny from investors.
