Hedge funds hold $1.2 trillion levered

Jordan Kerridge reports that hedge funds are currently holding approximately $1.2 trillion in one of the U.S. Treasury market’s largest leveraged trades.

According to Kerridge, this strategy involves purchasing U.S. Treasuries while simultaneously shorting Treasury futures to take advantage of small price discrepancies, with funds borrowing extensively through the repo market to enable these positions.

Kerridge has previously reported on the sharp loss of $1.295 trillion in value as Chinese stocks fell and the SSE Composite Index dropped 2%, driven by inflation concerns here. He has also provided Bitcoin price and trade updates via his Telegram channel. These reports reflect Kerridge's ongoing coverage of significant moves in global markets.
