Recent analysis indicates a stabilization in US equity positioning following early-year volatility. The Goldman Sachs (GS) positioning index has shifted to a neutral stance, suggesting a more balanced market outlook. Additionally, large speculators and hedge funds have reported a slightly negative net positioning in Russell 2000 futures. Data from GS also reveals that Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs) in US stocks show positioning that is no longer stretched, while non-dealer positioning in US equity futures has decreased from recent highs, reflecting a cautious approach among investors.
