Tech Up After Mixed Earnings Reports -- Tech Roundup

Shares of tech companies rose after a mixed round of earnings reports. Shares of Adobe Systems rose slightly, bringing gains for the year to date to more than 75%, after the software maker posted earnings ahead of Wall Street targets, helped by its strength in the cloud-computing sphere. Shares of rival business software maker Oracle fell after results at its cloud-computing unit, seen as the area of business software with the highest growth potential, trailed analyst expectations.
