Now everywhere is besieging short sellers, and hedge funds are more cautious about short selling. The short selling positions have surged, causing not only losses but also imbalances in net exposure, and the total exposure of the fund is too large. Therefore, the choice for funds is either to continue to close out short positions, sell off long positions, and reduce total exposure, or to abandon individual stocks and switch to short selling equity index futures. This may be why the futures of the U.S. stocks indexes have been relatively sluggish recently. Whether selling off long stocks or short selling equity index futures, there is pressure on the market.
