According to Morgan Stanley, global hedge funds experienced significant losses as markets fell sharply following President Trump's tariff announcements. The S&P 500 and FTSE dropped over 10% and 6% respectively, leading to a decline in net leverage among funds, which fell to about 37%. The market turbulence, driven by fears of a trade war with China, has prompted hedge funds to adopt a more conservative stance, anticipating continued volatility in risk assets.
