In early market trading today, the share price of the BetaShares S&P/ASX Australian Technology ETF (ATEC) reached the stop loss level of $16.60, and the position has been closed for a small profit.
Overall, the Australian and Global markets look to have become concerned again that interest rates may not have peaked, and central banks may have to keep tightening to bring inflation under control.
So in the current environment, bond yields are on the rise again, and investors have switched out of technology stocks and back to cash.
Given this, it’s prudent to be out of this Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) for a small profit. This ETF is absolutely one we will have another position in at some point in the future because technology stocks will eventually come roaring back.
