After Friday, the 'invisible market makers' have withdrawn from the U.S. stock market!
In the past month, market makers have continuously bought Stocks to hedge their 3.4 trillion Options positions, leading to a strong rebound of 18% in U.S. stocks. But as the bell rings for the expiration date on Friday, what will happen to the U.S. stock market with these 'invisible guard hands' withdrawing?
Retail investors have made significant profits by buying at the bottom against the trend during the "roller coaster" of Trump's tariffs, while Institutions have missed the rebound.
In the face of the sell-off triggered by the sudden change in trade policy, professional Institutions such as Wall Street hedge funds hurriedly withdrew, while "dumb money" represented by retail investors entered the market against the trend, ultimately achieving great victory in this policy game.
