SPTE is trading down 3.8% today as part of a broader global technology selloff triggered by lowered IT spending outlooks.

  • Sentiment toward information technology deteriorated after Accenture cut its outlook, citing softer IT spending and a pullback in consulting services.
  • Investors are rotating out of growth stocks amid an ongoing tech downturn, pressuring diversified ETFs like SPTE that hold over 50% of their weight in IT names.
  • The decline comes alongside a roughly 2% drop in the broader tech sector and weaker performance across the NASDAQ.
