Craig Shapiro: SOXL rebalancing injects synthetic negative gamma, real risk not captured
SOXL rebalancing injects negative gamma risk

Craig Shapiro said neutral gamma may obscure the real risk in current market conditions.

He argued that SOXL's rebalancing process is adding synthetic negative gamma into the index, which he believes dealer models do not capture. Shapiro also stated that the window to 7550 is narrower than the surface suggests, and noted that Treasury longs are at their highest net length since early.

Earlier this year, Craig Shapiro highlighted Brent crude trading at $105 after reports of Pentagon strike plans and noted risks related to AI credit and the bond market in a separate article. He also previewed upcoming discussions on developments in indices, oil, gold, and rate markets following a volatile week in another report. Shapiro continues to monitor cross-asset risks and major positioning shifts.
