The Most Crowded Hedge Fund Stocks Just Had Their Worst Month In History: Here''s How To Make Money From Their Misery It was almost exactly a year ago when just weeks before the first of many epic short squeezes observed in a handful of meme stocks such as GME, AMC and so on, which would eventually consume the retail public with a daytrading, short-squeezing frenzy, that we reminded our readers that the single best alpha-generating strategy in this irreparably broken market is to go long the most shorted stocks (as this tweet from Nov 30, 2020 clearly states) Once again, the best strategy for a broken, incoherent market is to go long the most shorted stocks: double digit alpha 6 of the past 7 years https://t.co/GlV2aUYXlG pic.twitter.com/kOlXzxiCvH zerohedge (@zerohedge) December 1, 2020 ... a strategy that had worked like clockwork virtually every year in the past decade (with just one exception), and which we summarized as follows: " Do the opposite of Wall Street consensus and retire in a few years ." Most shorted YTD = 3x S&P500 Do the opposite of Wall Street consensus and retire in a few years pic.twitter.com/ouQ8Jc9NwI zerohedge (@zerohedge) December 4, 2020 Of course, while most of the US daytrading class is now in a furore over the "discovery" that most shorted stocks tend to outperform - to put it mildly - when a bunch of Gen-Z apes rams illiquid, heavily shorted names up the collective behind of hedge funds which "legally" collude during idea dinners to put on a basket of shorts, hence why stocks like GME can end up with a synthetic short that is higher than the entire float, none of this should be news to regular readers, as the theme of going long the most shorted names is one we first presented and discussed as far back as 2013: Presenting The Best Trading Strategy In This Market: Buy The Most Hated Stocks, Short The Most Widely Held We then reiterated this strategy in 2014...

KARACHI: Minister for Health and Population Welfare, Sindh, Dr Azra Fazal Pechuho, held a Press Conference at the Sindh Assembly regarding the new Covid-19 variant, Omicron. The Minister stated that in order to combat this new variant the Federal Government will have to take precautions immediately. She also said that rapid antigen tests must be carried out at the airport and all other points of entry into the country. The Sindh government is ready to administer booster shots for the people free of cost, however, to do this the province needs at least 2 million doses of the Covid-19 vaccine. Dr Azra said that those people who get infected with Covid-19 despite having received the vaccine will have their genomic profiling done in order to pin down which variant is present in our population and its probability. Giving clarity on the new variant, the Minister also said that the virus has mutated so as to show difference in 30 locations of its anatomy. This means that there could be a difference in its rate of infection and how it affects the human body in comparison to the previous variants.

President Joe Biden listens during a meeting with business leaders about the holiday shopping season, in the library of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House campus, Monday, Nov. 29, 2021, in Washington | Evan Vucci/AP The president urged Americans to get vaccinated, said no lockdown is being considered for the new coronavirus variant omicron. WASHINGTON President Joe Biden called the new coronavirus variant omicron a cause for concern but not a cause for panic Monday and said he was not considering any widespread U.S. lockdown. He urged Americans anew to get fully vaccinated, including booster shots, and return to face masks indoors in public settings to slow any spread. Speaking Monday at the White House, Biden said it was inevitable that the new variant would reach the U.S., but he also said the country has the tools necessary to protect Americans particularly the approved vaccines and booster shots. When omicron arrives, and it will, Biden said, America will face this new threat just as weve faced those that have come before it. He appealed to the roughly 80 million unvaccinated Americans aged 5 and up to get their shots, and for the rest of the country to seek out booster shots six months after their second dose.

Hedge Funds Crushed By Surge In Moderna, The Third Most Shorted Name Over the weekend, we reported that even before last Fridat''s bloodbath, hedge funds suffered their worst week in six months because according to Goldman prime, the GS Equity Fundamental L/S Performance Estimate fell -1.57% between 11/19 and 11/25, driven by alpha of -1.12% which was "the worst alpha drawdown in nearly six months" and beta of -0.45% (from market exposure and market sensitivity combined). So it probably won''t come as a big shock that the worst Black Friday market crash in history did not reverse the ongoing woes of the 2 and 20 crowd, and once again failed to validate the "hedge" in "hedge fund" because according to Goldman prime, many hedge funds were again caught off-guard by news of the variant as they had bought US Go Outside (reopen) stocks and sold Stay-at Home names in the past week . Additionally, updated 13F data showed that mutual-funds are carrying sizable underweights coupled with large short positions in the vaccine names (particularly MRNA, which is the 3rd most shorted name, but also PFE).

Vaxzevria COVID-19 vaccine, previously COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca, are pictured at the Assad Iben El Fourat school in Oued Ellil, outside Tunis, on Aug.8, 2021. | Hassene Dridi/AP The word beat out insurrection, infrastructure, perseverance and nomad to win the top honors. NEW YORK With an expanded definition to reflect the times, Merriam-Webster has declared an omnipresent truth as its 2021 word of the year: vaccine. This was a word that was extremely high in our data every single day in 2021, Peter Sokolowski, Merriam-Websters editor-at-large, told The Associated Press ahead of Mondays announcement. It really represents two different stories. One is the science story, which is this remarkable speed with which the vaccines were developed. But theres also the debates regarding policy, politics and political affiliation. Its one word that carries these two huge stories, he said. The selection follows vax as word of the year from the folks who publish the Oxford English Dictionary.
