The recent turmoil in the bond market has severely impacted quant investors who had taken bullish positions in Treasuries, leading to significant losses. As yields surged unexpectedly, many trend-following funds faced liquidation of their long positions, which not only wiped out gains for the year but led to a potential further sell-off of up to $240 billion in bonds. This ongoing volatility underscores the challenges faced by investors in navigating a rapidly changing economic landscape.
