美股跌势未止?美债结算致风险资产“失血” 1500亿美元流动性风暴冲击在即
智通财经网· 2025-11-24 06:52
近期美股下跌与美债结算日高度吻合。自10月30日以来的9个结算日中,标普500指数有7日收跌。自从7月债务上限提高后,美国财政部一直通过消耗逆回购 工具资金来应对发债需求。尽管10月末11月初逆回购工具尚有余额,但这些余额显然已不足以吸收美债结算带来的资金流动。 股市和比特币等风险资产首当其冲,因为当逆回购缓冲机制消失后,结算资金直接从准备金账户抽取,导致准备金规模下降。如今随着准备金减少且财政部 一般账户(TGA)资金回笼,支撑风险资产的流动性正在被持续抽离。 智通财经APP获悉,标普500指数11月迄今已下跌约3.7%,而更严峻的考验可能即将到来。由于美债结算导致市场流动性被持续抽离,而未来五个交易日内 预计将有1500亿美元因美债结算而被抽离,标普500指数面临进一步下跌的风险。 既然逆回购工具已不足以支撑美债结算,所需资金就必须另寻来源。可观测数据显示,当前资金正从风险资产中流出。这一现象自10月30日起尤为明显—— 期间9个美债结算日中标普500指数有7日下跌,这7个交易日平均跌幅达1.18%。 | Down Days | | Up Days | | | --- | --- | --- | --- ...
美股市场两日巨震上演“多空双杀”,对冲基金止损变踩踏狼狈不堪
Zhi Tong Cai Jing· 2025-11-22 03:21
智通财经APP注意到,对冲基金在这轮剧烈的两日股市震荡中站错队:周四他们匆忙采取防护措施以规避损失,不料次日价格迅速反弹,又不得不匆忙平 仓。 这五次大幅波动中的三次发生在四月初,当时前总统特朗普的关税威胁令标普500指数在熊市边缘摇摇欲坠。 高盛的主要经纪业务数据显示,周四美国交易所交易基金的净空头头寸猛增4.6%,创下今年第五大单日增幅,也是过去五年来的最大增幅之一。 除了宏观对冲手段(如建立ETF和指数的空头头寸)外,对冲基金还削减了个股头寸。高盛尤其注意到科技股出现投降迹象,该板块在周四的暴跌中首当其 冲。去杠杆化几乎波及该行业各个角落,其中以半导体、半导体设备股和软件公司为首。 对冲基金急于对冲股市损失之际,标普500指数出现了自4月以来最剧烈的盘中反转。主要基准指数周四收于两个多月来的最低水平。 高盛集团合伙人约翰.弗勒德周五在给客户的一份报告中写道:"我们的交易部门看到对冲基金在大举回补宏观产品(如指数和ETF)的头寸。考虑到昨天对冲 基金还处于纯粹的盈亏保护模式,积极通过宏观产品进行对冲,今天的举动也在情理之中。" 但建立空头头寸的举动在周五看来似乎时机不佳,随着股市反弹,对冲基金被迫平仓。标 ...
