Goldman Sachs: Hedge Fund Positions Create Conditions for US Stock Market Rebound

According to Jinshi News, Goldman Sachs' trading department stated that the positioning structure of hedge funds in the U.S. stock market has created conditions for a significant rebound after recent fluctuations. Speculative investors generally maintain long positions at the individual stock level while hedging through shorting ETFs and stock index futures. Data shows that the short positions in these products have risen to the highest level since September 2022, reflecting that the market is dealing with uncertainties arising from the Iran war, credit risks, and AI-related concerns. John Flood, head of Goldman Sachs' Americas equity execution services, stated that if positive news emerges, it could drive the market up by 2% to 3%.
