Hedge funds increase shorts on manufacturers as supply risks rise
Securities finance data compiled by Hazeltree, as cited by Reuters, showed a June rise in bearish positions tied to fears of supply chain disruption and higher input costs.
Global hedge funds increased bearish exposure to manufacturing companies in June, according to a report cited by Reuters.
The shift reflected growing concerns that renewed geopolitical tensions in the Middle East could disrupt supply chains and lift input costs, according to Hazeltree securities finance data mentioned by Hedgeweek.
The data showed hedge funds significantly ramped up short positions against manufacturing firms during the month as those risks intensified.
