This week in the podcast, Lori discusses her takeaways from last week’s release of 1Q21 13fs for major hedge funds. The big thing you need to know: the most popular Large Cap stocks in hedge funds in terms of the Dollar value owned, which we call the Hot Dogs, have continued to underperform in 2021 in a significant way. At the sector level, big reversals in performance have been seen for the most popular hedge funds stocks in the Communication Services, Consumer Discretionary, and Tech sectors, with the most popular names lagging this year. But Energy has bucked the trend as the most popular hedge fund names in the sector have outperformed. Lori also discusses what surprised her about positioning in Financials among hedge funds.
