Citi equity market positioning model notes positioning easing, but risks remain

StockNow breaking-news AI analysis

Citi reports Nasdaq long positions are entirely in loss, increasing liquidation risks. While DAX faces bearish extremes, KOSPI deals with severe deleveraging and margin hikes amid extreme volatility.

News detail

Citi says that a tech-led selloff triggered positioning deterioration across major equity markets, with long unwinds, new shorts and rising unrealised losses driving flows; Nasdaq reset lower, but remains vulnerable with all longs in loss.  DAX moved into bearish territory, while KOSPI faces the greatest deleveraging risk despite elevated positioning.  Upcoming earnings are seen as key to whether positioning stabilises or unwinds further.
