They explore how the rally is concentrated in manufacturing and export-oriented sectors, why European companies are doubling down on China production despite de-risking rhetoric, and what it means for hedge fund strategies in May 2026. With the S&P 500 at 7,519 and small caps surging, they connect the China data to global portfolio positioning.
