How China’s leverage and short-selling scheme drives market despite tighter curbs Investing.com -- China’s margin financing balance has climbed close to its 2015 peak while short selling has been sharply reduced by tighter rules, according to UBS. It is scheme that lets investors borrow money or shares to trade stocks. Launched in 2010 now, it covers more than two-thirds of listed companies and accounts for about 2% of market capitalisation and 10% of daily trading. As of August, the margin financing balance exceeded 2 trillion yuan, about $276 billion which is near the level reached before the 2015 market crash. Short selling has been restricted by regulatory measures, including a 2024 suspension of securities borrowing and lending. Balances fell to 7.7 billion yuan, down from a peak of 147 billion yuan in 2021 and representing just 0.01% of market capitalisation. Short positions can still be built from broker inventories, but activity remains limited. UBS said margin financing flows have become a proxy for shifts in investor sentiment like when balances rise by more than 5% in a week, the market often shifts into “risk-on” mode, shifting to small-cap and volatile stocks. Retail investors make up the majority of accounts, more than 7.5 million though hedge funds and wealthy individuals use leverage more actively. Turnover is high, with annualised trading reaching 14 times on the long side and 53 times on the short. UBS found short-selling data to be consistently informative for stock picking, while margin financing flows alone were less reliable due to the mix of retail and institutional activity. Combining margin financing with other positioning measures such as mutual fund and offshore flows improved performance, generating a 15% annualised return since 2017 in UBS’s model. 3rd party Ad.

US appeals court orders SEC to review short-selling rules NEW YORK (Reuters) -A U.S. appeals court on Monday ordered the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to assess the economic impact of President Joe Biden-era rules aimed at boosting transparency of short sell trades, in a partial victory for hedge funds that brought the case. The future of the rule is unclear. The review will now fall to the SEC’s new leadership, led by Trump’s Republican SEC chair Paul Atkins. In December 2023, three hedge fund associations sued in the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to vacate the rules adopted earlier that year, arguing they could reveal confidential trading positions and potentially invite retaliation. Short sales are trades that stand to profit when a stock falls. The groups also argued the rules violated the Administrative Procedure Act, which requires agencies to justify their rules and consider feedback. On Monday, a three-judge panel rejected the argument that the rules would expose confidential investor positions, but it did require the SEC to assess the costs and benefits of the rule. The petitioners, the National Association of Private Fund Managers, Managed Funds Association (MFA), and Alternative Investment Management Association (AIMA), also said the rule exceeds the SEC’s authority, but the court did not agree with that. In a statement, Bryan Corbett, CEO of the MFA, the group which led the litigation, cheered the ruling. "These regulations were fatally flawed from the start when the SEC adopted highly related rules on the same day without analyzing the impact one would have on the other," he said. 3rd party Ad. Not an offer or recommendation by Investing.com. See disclosure here or remove ads. The associations have sued to overturn new rules the SEC adopted in 2023 under chair Gary Gensler, with the groups scoring some victories.

Hedge funds picked WH Smith as a top short before share slump, Hazeltree data shows LONDON (Reuters) -Hedge funds and speculators picked WH Smith as their top target for short selling in July, before the British travel retailer announced an accounting error on Thursday that sent its shares tumbling more than 45%. WH Smith lowered its annual profit outlook on Thursday after a review revealed earnings had been overstated in its North America division. Speculators in July picked WH Smith as their top target among UK and European small-cap stocks for bets on a share price drop, a research report from Hazeltree also on Thursday showed. Hedge funds that had to disclose such bets in August to the UK regulator’s public filings because of their size included Citadel Advisors and Man Group (LON:EMG). Analysts have cut target prices for WH Smith’s stock and have pointed to how mounting debt has weighed on the company’s cash reserves, compounding pressures from global economic uncertainty affecting the travel sector. A financial review identified an overstatement of around 30 million pounds ($40 million) in expected headline trading profit, WH Smith said, mainly due to supplier income in North America being booked too early. WH Smith, which in June sold its UK high street business to become purely a travel retailer, has been rapidly expanding in North America, which contributed about 20% of group revenue in fiscal 2024. The retailer said it now expects group pre-tax profit for the year ending August 31 to be around 110 million pounds, compared to analysts’ estimates of 156.9 million pounds, according to LSEG data. Entertainment ticket sales companies, luxury drinks companies and semi-conductor manufacturers saw large portions of their stocks borrowed for the purpose of shorting, Hazeltree’s Shortside Crowdedness Report showed. Citadel and Man Group declined to comment. WH Smith did not immediately respond. The fastest way to find out is with our Fair Value calculator.

Yuan short bets hit May highs as China’s economic woes weigh on emerging market currencies (Reuters) -Bearish bets on China’s yuan hit their highest since mid-May, with analysts turning short for the first time amid mounting concerns over the economy, a Reuters poll showed on Thursday. China’s economy lost steam in July, with retail sales rising just 3.7% year-on-year, well below the 5.9% growth expected in a Reuters poll. Industrial output grew 5.7%, its weakest pace since November 2024. New home prices fell 2.8% in July from a year earlier, extending a two-year stagnation, while fixed-asset investment rose just 1.6% in the first seven months of 2025, missing forecasts for 2.7%. Meanwhile, analysts held on to their bearish outlook for the South Korean won, unchanged since early May, while slightly trimming short positions on the Singapore dollar, a Reuters fortnightly poll of 11 respondents showed. Sentiment toward the Indonesian rupiah turned negative after flipping bullish, while short positions on the Taiwan dollar were trimmed. Bank Indonesia unexpectedly cut its benchmark 7-day reverse repurchase rate by 25 basis points on Wednesday. The poll responses were received before the rate decision. For the Indian rupee and Malaysian ringgit analysts pared back bullish positions. Philippine peso bearish bets were trimmed slightly, and Thai baht analysts trimmed bullish positions. ANZ analysts see India’s growth momentum slowing with tepid household consumption and investment expected over the coming quarters, adding that export competitiveness faces headwinds from US tariffs. "Based on this outlook, we believe that the INR is likely to trade with a depreciation bias in the near-to-medium term, underperforming compared to its Asian peers." Meanwhile, Reuters reported China is considering allowing yuan-backed stablecoins for the first time to boost wider adoption globally. China is expected to discuss expanding yuan use and possibly stablecoins for cross-border trade at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Summit to be held Aug. 31-Sep. 1 in Tianjin. "Given potential Federal Reserve reluctance to deliver significant rate cuts at upcoming FOMC meetings (contingent on employment and inflation data), market repricing of rate cut expectations could drive the U.S. Dollar and Treasury yields higher, creating headwinds for emerging market currencies," said Poon Panichpibool, market strategist at Krung Thai Bank. Money markets reflect a 93% chance of a 25-basis-point Fed rate cut in September. The U.S dollar index has lost 0.8% in value in the last two weeks, but is on track to edge higher this week, up 0.4% so far. [USD/] "We have had quite a strong sell-off in the USD for much of 1H 2025 and currencies now await macro cues from data. With both of Fed’s inflation and employment mandate in a potential conflict, we could be in a period of consolidation," said Fiona Lim, senior forex strategist at Maybank Singapore. "Currencies such as KRW and TWD which gained the most in 1H of 2025 have the biggest room to retrace." Investors fretted about Federal Reserve independence after another attack from President Donald Trump ahead of remarks from Chair Jerome Powell at the annual Jackson Hole symposium later this week. The Asian currency positioning poll is focused on what analysts and fund managers believe are the current market positions in nine Asian emerging market currencies: the Chinese yuan, South Korean won, Singapore dollar, Indonesian rupiah, Taiwan dollar, Indian rupee, Philippine peso, Malaysian ringgit and the Thai baht. The poll uses estimates of net long or short positions on a scale of minus 3 to plus 3. A score of plus 3 indicates the market is significantly long U.S. dollars. The figures include positions held through non-deliverable forwards (NDFs). The survey findings are provided below (positions in U.S. dollar versus each currency): 21-Aug-25 0.06 0.35 -0.73 -0.08 -0.35 0.94 -0.40 0.22 -0.31 7-Aug-25 -0.09 0.35 -0.87 0.35 -0.50 1.33 -0.58 0.35 -0.40 24-Jul-25 -0.57 -0.10 -1.09 -0.05 -1.06 0.51 -0.57 0.21 -0.14 10-Jul-25 -0.54 -0.63 -1.30 -0.38 -1.65 0.36 -0.48 -0.06 -0.11 26-Jun-25 -0.74 -1.06 -1.22 -0.20 -1.48 0.89 -0.76 0.21 -0.33 12-Jun-25 -0.78 -1.37 -1.24 -0.60 -1.58 0.03 -1.25 -0.93 -1.24 29-May-25 -0.67 -1.20 -1.34 -0.32 -1.50 -0.08 -1.04 -1.19 -1.14 15-May-25 0.00 -0.22 -0.54 0.70 -1.01 -0.19 -0.15 -0.68 -0.45 01-May-25 0.20 -0.06 -0.67 1.27 -0.53 -0.58 -0.40 -1.02 -0.61 17-Apr-25 0.57 0.19 -0.26 1.33 0.06 -0.20 0.04 -0.65 -0.30 With valuations skyrocketing in 2024, many investors are uneasy putting more money into stocks.

Aurora stock falls after Kerrisdale Capital issues bearish short report Investing.com -- Aurora Innovation (NASDAQ:AUR) stock fell 3% Tuesday after Kerrisdale Capital published a short report questioning the autonomous trucking company’s commercial viability. In the report, Kerrisdale Capital argued that Aurora’s autonomous trucking model faces insurmountable challenges that will prevent it from becoming a viable business. The short seller claimed that Aurora’s technology would be limited to hub-and-spoke operations where only highway miles could be driven autonomously, while local deliveries would still require human drivers. According to Kerrisdale, this hub-and-spoke model would make autonomous trucking "slower, more expensive, and less reliable than point-to-point manned trucking for any freight moving under 1500 miles." The report suggested that Aurora’s addressable market is just a fraction of the 200 billion miles the company claims, estimating the actual market size at approximately $10 billion - less than Aurora’s current $13 billion market capitalization. The short seller also highlighted concerns about infrastructure requirements, noting that Aurora’s strategy depends on others building the necessary hubs for autonomous operations. Additionally, Kerrisdale claimed that executives at Aurora’s OEM partners expect autonomous trucks to cost at least 50% more than comparable manned vehicles, contradicting Aurora’s claims of cost parity. Kerrisdale concluded that Aurora investors "should expect a decade of continuous dilution before arriving at a dead end," citing the company’s challenging economics and the need to share profits with truck manufacturers, competitors, and service providers. This article was generated with the support of AI and reviewed by an editor. For more information see our T&C. With AUR making headlines, savvy investors are asking: Is it truly valued fairly? In a market full of overpriced darlings, identifying true value can be challenging. InvestingPro's advanced AI algorithms have analyzed AUR alongside thousands of other stocks to uncover hidden gems.
