As the U.S. presidential election approaches, global hedge funds have heightened their equity leverage by 20.6% this year, indicating an increased risk appetite compared to previous election cycles. This rise contrasts with past trends where funds typically reduced leverage ahead of elections. The current optimism in markets, fueled by a strong economy and tech sector performance, has led hedge funds to increase their equity positions, although experts note that the situation remains stable for now.
