Hedge funds cut dollar exposure as Treasuries regain safe-haven appeal
Hedge funds squared off long US dollar positions on Thursday as US Treasuries rallied amid a global equity selloff, according to a Bloomberg report cited by Hedgeweek. Benchmark 10-year Treasury yields fell 10 basis points to 5.09% during Asian trading, their lowest in three weeks, while other maturities declined by at least seven basis points. A Bloomberg index tracking Treasury returns has gained almost 0.7% in October after a 2.2% decline in September, and several asset managers including Pimco and Morgan Stanley Investment Management have turned more positive on bonds.
