1.海外量化动态 1.2 AQR开始"拥抱AI" 在上一期海外量化季度观察中我们提到，境外量化机构对AI的使用整体较为谨慎，AQR等老牌量化机构使用AI的环节 较少。但近期AQR创始人Cliff Asness在访谈中承认其已经向AI"投降"，已经开始在投资决策中使用更多的AI算法，虽 然在回撤时会出现难以解释的问题，但多数时间也会提供更高的回报。 不过，相比于境外市场，境内私募量化机构对AI的使用明显更多，根据Financial Times对倍漾量化（Baiont Quant） 创始人冯霁的访谈，其团队完全为计算机背景，利用自建全流程AI算法，构建分钟至小时级别的收益预测，并在团队 管理上完全采用宏观、基本面绝缘的模式，这也是境内不少私募量化基金的缩影。 1.3 德州教师退休基金量化团队集体加入独立资管机构 1.1关税事件影响下量化对冲基金普遍有明显回撤 2025年4月，在关税事件的影响下，量化对冲基金普遍有较弱的表现。文艺复兴的标志性产品Renaissance Institutional Equities Fund 2024年规模接近200亿美元，2024年上涨约22.7%，但在4月上半月有约8%的回撤。文 ...

Core Viewpoint - Citigroup anticipates that the foreign exchange market will achieve a trillion-dollar level of growth due to increased volatility from hedge funds [1] Group 1 - The foreign exchange market is expected to see significant growth driven by hedge fund activities [1] - Increased volatility in hedge funds is a key factor contributing to this anticipated growth in the foreign exchange market [1]

Core Viewpoint - TSMC is injecting $10 billion into its overseas subsidiary to hedge against currency risks, marking its largest capital operation to date aimed at reducing foreign exchange hedging costs and enhancing capital flexibility in managing currency risks [1][3]. Group 1: Capital Injection Details - TSMC Global Ltd. has approved a plan to issue new shares worth $10 billion to its parent company, aimed at increasing capital to lower foreign exchange hedging costs [1]. - This capital injection is primarily for general investments, including bank deposits and bonds, and is intended to transfer TSMC's foreign exchange holdings to its subsidiary [3]. - This marks TSMC's third similar operation since 2024, with the scale significantly exceeding previous injections, all occurring during periods of New Taiwan Dollar appreciation [3]. Group 2: Currency Risk Management - The capital injection will provide TSMC Global with greater capital flexibility to manage currency risks, particularly in light of the recent strengthening of the New Taiwan Dollar [3]. - The strengthening of the New Taiwan Dollar has raised concerns about the export-oriented economy of Taiwan, impacting TSMC's operating profit margins by several percentage points [2][7]. - TSMC's CEO has indicated that the strong local currency has directly affected the company's commercial performance, highlighting the impact of currency fluctuations on profitability [7]. Group 3: Market Context - The New Taiwan Dollar has recently shown strong performance, with significant fluctuations leading to increased hedging costs, reaching the highest implied volatility levels since 2011 [4]. - The appreciation of the New Taiwan Dollar negatively affects Taiwanese exporters, as it reduces the amount of local currency received from overseas sales or necessitates higher prices abroad, risking demand decline [7].

Core Viewpoint - UBS warns that the recent rally in the U.S. stock market has gone too far, suggesting investors consider reducing their positions as true risk appetite continues to decline despite surface strength [1][8]. Group 1: Market Indicators - UBS's proprietary "4M Midday Recovery Score," which measures investor risk appetite, has been declining since April, dropping to 9% by June 19, indicating a shift to a neutral stance [2][5]. - The UBS Short Squeeze Index (UBXXSHRT) has seen a significant increase of 43%, but historically, similar conditions have led to average declines of 11% in the S&P 500 and 13% in the Nasdaq over three months [1][6]. Group 2: Fund Flow Dynamics - There has been a consistent outflow of active funds, with retail investors showing net selling on 4 out of the last 5 trading days, and foreign investors also exhibiting net selling through U.S. listed ETFs [8][10]. - UBS anticipates a significant sell-off of up to $56 billion in global equities due to pension and target-date fund rebalancing, with $31 billion targeting international stocks and $25 billion for U.S. stocks [10]. Group 3: Corporate Buybacks and Risks - Corporate stock buybacks are expected to weaken significantly, with projections of a drop to $30 billion next week and further down to $15-20 billion before early August due to companies entering blackout periods [10]. - The report highlights a concerning lack of hedging among major tech stocks, with short positions at a one-year low and put/call ratios at a five-year low, indicating increased risk exposure [12][16].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the significant decline of the US dollar in the first half of 2025, highlighting its worst performance in decades, driven by various factors including geopolitical uncertainties and changing investor behaviors [2][4]. Group 1: Dollar Decline - The Bloomberg Dollar Index has dropped over 8% this year, marking the worst start to a year on record, while the ICE Dollar Index has seen a decline of approximately 9%, potentially the worst performance since 1986 [2]. - Richard Chambers from Goldman Sachs anticipates that the dollar's weakness will continue as foreign investors increase their currency hedging [4][5]. Group 2: Foreign Demand and Investment Trends - Analysts suggest that the significant drop in the dollar index is largely due to uncertainties stemming from US policies, particularly those of President Trump, which have shaken investor confidence [6]. - Although there are no clear signs of a mass withdrawal from the US bond market by foreign investors, Chambers predicts a decrease in foreign demand, particularly as European investors may prefer to invest domestically [6][7]. Group 3: Currency Swap Indicators - A recent indicator in the foreign exchange market, the cross-currency basis swap, has shown a notable shift, signaling a decrease in demand for the dollar [8][11]. - Analysts from Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs have observed that the willingness of investors to purchase dollar-denominated assets is declining, while interest in euro and yen-denominated assets is increasing [11][12].

Group 1 - The Bloomberg Dollar Index has fallen over 8% year-to-date, while the ICE Dollar Index has seen a decline approaching 9%, marking the worst start in nearly 40 years [1] - Changes in interest rates are identified as the catalyst for the dollar's decline, with market expectations leaning towards a loosening cycle before 2026 despite the Federal Reserve's stance on maintaining higher rates for longer [3] - The increase in foreign exchange hedging ratios indicates that the future trajectory of the dollar will rely more on fundamentals rather than mere capital flows [4] Group 2 - Investors are shifting from traditional safe-haven assets like the dollar to derivatives for currency hedging, which has led to additional selling pressure on the dollar during settlement [3] - The potential for the dollar to further decline to the 101-102 index range exists if core inflation continues to fall and the Federal Reserve shifts its stance [4] - The focus for investors should transition from directional bets on the dollar to managing volatility, as the primary variables influencing dollar fluctuations have shifted from unilateral interest rate differentials to multidimensional risk pricing [4]

Core Viewpoint - The significant decline of the US dollar in the first half of 2025 is attributed to various factors, including increased currency hedging by foreign investors and uncertainty stemming from US policies, particularly those of President Trump [1][3][4]. Group 1: Dollar Performance - The Bloomberg Dollar Index has dropped over 8% year-to-date, marking the worst annual start on record [1]. - The ICE Dollar Index has also seen a decline of approximately 9%, potentially leading to its worst performance in at least 37 years [1]. Group 2: Foreign Investment Trends - Richard Chambers from Goldman Sachs anticipates a continued weakening of the dollar, with foreign investors increasing their currency hedging due to heightened volatility [3]. - Foreign demand for US securities, which has doubled over the past decade to $31 trillion, is expected to weaken as European investors may prefer local markets [3][4]. Group 3: Currency Swap Indicators - Recent changes in cross-currency basis swaps indicate a declining preference for the dollar, with increased demand for currencies like the euro and yen [6]. - Analysts from Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs note that the willingness to purchase dollar-denominated assets is decreasing, contrasting with historical trends where the dollar was favored during times of market uncertainty [6][7]. Group 4: Market Dynamics - The cross-currency basis swap is crucial as it sets the long-term pricing for foreign exchange hedging and indicates shifts in asset flows between economies [6]. - Guneet Dhingra from BNP Paribas highlights significant cross-border capital movements, particularly from the US to Europe, suggesting a potential shift in investment strategies [7].
