Software Bounce, Hong Kong Shorts & Battleground Stocks
from Risk and Return with Charlie Gasparino and Bob Sloan · host S3 Partners
This week's Risk & Return examines whether the software sell-off is overdone, with Oracle and Microsoft bouncing from lows but uneven sector recovery as hedge funds unwind crowded positions. We spotlight Hong Kong short interest anomalies including China Vanke's debt crisis and Pop Mart's explosive growth amid 170% short increase, plus battleground stock volatility that's seen large caps swing from +10% to negative YTD, while Mag-7 dispersion widens and markets digest the Warsh Fed nomination ahead of Friday's critical CPI print.
