TREE NEWS reports: Billion-yuan private fund founder Liang Hong said an insurance asset management giant bought heavily into tech stocks at July highs and then sharply cut positions in late September, triggering the recent tech sector selloff. In his weekly report, Liang attributed the decline to capital flows rather than fundamentals, calling the large institution’s chase-high, sell-low behavior puzzling.

Liang's claim shifts the narrative from fundamentals to institutional flow, which matters because it implies the selloff was mechanical rather than a repricing of tech risk. If a single large insurer's positioning can move the sector this visibly, it raises questions about market depth and how concentrated tech exposure has become among domestic institutions. The open question is whether this was a one-off de-risking or the start of a broader rotation out of tech by insurance capital.
