Institutional investors adjust tech holdings

Entities: Baidu, Inc. · Zoom Communications Inc. · Caerus Investment Advisors LLC · Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Co. · Principal Financial Group Inc.

Overview

In late July 2026, institutional investors disclosed new positions in major technology firms, with Weiss Asset Management buying a $7.1 million stake in Baidu and Gibbs Wealth Management acquiring a $477,000 holding in Intel. By early August, the pattern of rebalancing continued: Principal Financial Group sharply reduced its Elastic stake, while Optiver Holding more than doubled its Baidu position, adding roughly $6.7 million of shares. The snapshots together illustrate ongoing, active management of technology‑sector exposures by U.S. and Chinese‑focused investors, featuring both fresh purchases and selective divestments across leading tech companies.
