Key Takeaways
  • • Tiger Global significantly reduced exposure to megacap technology stocks during Q2 2026, cutting Alphabet by 45.4% (to 5.81 million shares), Nvidia by 6.8% (to 11.20 million shares), Microsoft by 9.3% (to 2.27 million shares), Amazon by 3.2% (to 9.68 million shares), and Meta by 8.5% (to 2.82 million shares).
  • • The hedge fund more than halved its Broadcom position (51% reduction to 1.75 million shares) and reduced Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing by 12.3% (to 4.88 million ADSs), signaling a broad retreat from crowded technology holdings following the sector's strong performance.
  • • Tiger Global doubled its Intel position to 4.25 million shares and established a new $392 million AMD position (674,727 shares), indicating a selective pivot toward semiconductor exposure with different risk-return profiles.
  • • The fund deployed $64.1 million for a new 375,000-share position in SpaceX, gaining exposure to the private space economy amid growing investor interest in satellite and launch infrastructure businesses.
  • • Tiger Global exited its Netflix position entirely, liquidating 2.44 million shares (valued at $234.5 million in March) by quarter-end, reflecting a broader reallocation away from mature technology names.
Summary
Tiger Global Management has materially reduced its exposure to several of the largest U.S. technology companies during the second quarter of 2026, according to regulatory filings reviewed by Reuters. The strategic repositioning reflects a deliberate effort to pare back positions in heavily owned megacap stocks following an extended rally in the technology sector.

The most aggressive reduction came in Alphabet, where Tiger Global cut its stake by 45.4% to 5.81 million shares by the end of June. The fund also trimmed significant holdings across the technology landscape: Nvidia fell 6.8% to 11.20 million shares, Microsoft declined 9.3% to 2.27 million shares, Amazon decreased 3.2% to 9.68 million shares, and Meta Platforms fell 8.5% to 2.82 million shares. Beyond the hyperscalers, Tiger Global more than halved its Broadcom position, reducing it by approximately 51% to 1.75 million shares, while Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing was cut by 12.3% to 4.88 million American Depositary Shares.

Rather than a wholesale retreat from technology, Tiger Global's moves represent a selective reallocation within the sector. The fund more than doubled its Intel holding to 4.25 million shares from 1.64 million shares in the prior quarter, and established a new position in Advanced Micro Devices totaling 674,727 shares valued at approximately $392 million. This repositioning suggests the firm is rotating away from the most crowded names toward semiconductor companies with different valuation profiles and growth dynamics.

Tiger Global also disclosed its first disclosed investment in SpaceX, allocating 375,000 shares worth approximately $64.1 million at quarter-end. The move provides exposure to the private space economy at a time when investor appetite for businesses linked to satellite infrastructure, launch services, and related space technology continues to expand. Additionally, Tiger Global fully exited its Netflix position, eliminating its 2.44 million-share holding that had been valued at approximately $234.5 million at the end of the first quarter, further signaling a reorientation away from mature streaming and consumer technology assets.
