Asia multi-strategy hedge funds suffer steepest July losses of 2026

The losses followed a sharp reversal in semiconductor and AI-related stocks across the region, reversing part of strong first-half 2026 gains.

Asia's largest multi-strategy hedge funds posted their steepest monthly losses of the year in July, as a sharp pullback in semiconductor and AI-linked equities hit performance, according to a Reuters report carried by Hedgeweek.

The report said the downturn across the region erased part of the strong gains these funds generated earlier in 2026.

As a result, several funds saw their July results mark their worst month of 2026 so far, reflecting how quickly sentiment shifted when the AI-driven selloff spread beyond early winners.
