Goldman Sachs

【Goldman Sachs:Hedge funds have record exposure to the seven biggest tech stocks by market value】

Aug 29 - In a week when Nvidia (NVDA.O) shares hit new highs after reporting revenue that beat expectations, hedge funds had record exposure to the seven largest technology stocks by market capitalization, data from Goldman Sachs showed on Friday. Together, the seven largest U.S. stocks now account for about 20% of the net value of stocks held by hedge funds tracked by Goldman. These giants have also contributed to the broader market's rally this year. As of Aug. 24, the funds held a record percentage of their holdings in seven of the biggest tech stocks, led by Apple Inc., suggesting that hedge funds are building their positions not just through index products but by buying shares in those companies. "Hedge funds continue to chase to the super market technology and artificial intelligence related stocks," Goldman's prime brokerage business department said in a report issued to a specific customer base.

【SOCIETE GENERALE:The dollar remains the most popular currency】

August 24 - Although currency markets are still in the summer doldrums, the US dollar is still the top dog in the market, said Kit Juckes, chief global FX strategist at Societe Generale. In August, dollars all the way higher, and is expected to continue to rise, until the BOJ takes action (They will not meet again until September 22nd). Either European data (unlikely) gets better or US data be weak or Fed officials adopting a more cautious tone at Jackson Hole.

The BOJ bond buying speed record The necessity of increasing yield curve control policy

The BOJ has bought government bonds at a record pace this year, which may be one factor prompting the bank to allow yields to fluctuate in a wider range in the near term, reducing pressure on it to keep long-term rates under control. The BOJ hasn't significantly reduced its bond purchases after widening the yield-curve band in December and last month, and the ramp-up after each change raises questions about whether the central bank is moving too slowly to adjust policy and would have to go too far to stop investors from pushing yields too high. Naomi Muguruma, chief fixed-income strategist at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, said that if the BOJ reduced its bond purchases, market participants would take it as a signal that it was close to exiting its easing policy, pushing yields higher and forcing it to buy more.
