A sharp drop in U.S. stocks is provoking selling from volatility-sensitive funds, exacerbating a selloff that has already brought the Nasdaq Composite into correction territory.
More recently, they have begun selling, as worries over the economy and tech earnings rattle investors: volatility control funds have dumped about $83.6 billion of U.S. equity futures over the last two weeks, according to Charlie McElligott, managing director Cross-Asset Strategy at Nomura. The moves come on the backdrop of a selloff in U.S. stocks that deepened on Friday, after weaker than expected U.S. employment data spurred recession fears. The S&P 500 has slipped about 5% from its July 16 record high, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite Index, has slipped about 10% from a record high reached last month, putting it on pace to confirm a correction.The funds’ behavior going forward depends on how volatile markets are in the next few weeks, McElligott said.
Certain other slower-reacting volatility-sensitive strategies could also join the selling if the market selloff worsens.
