A new report from Goldman Sachs indicates that hedge funds reversed their continuous buying trend since late July last week, net selling US equities at the fastest pace since "Tariff Day," leading to a 1.4% weekly drop in the S&P 500. Their net leverage significantly declined by 3.0 percentage points to 48.3%, hitting a one-year low and marking the largest weekly drop in nearly five months. Goldman Sachs data also confirmed that last week was the second-largest week for global equity sell-offs in the past 12 months. Sectors such as Information Technology, Industrials, and Utilities bore the brunt, while Energy and Consumer Discretionary were the only sectors to see net buying.
