Anyone remember how many shares were bought in when we got ASX 200? Because they also shorted just as many.
Yep March ASX 200 rebalancing. I'm hoping that second kick up in the shorts is our Chinese palsThere was around 230m shares bought in the post trade auction on rebalance day. Not all of them were ASX200/300 buys but most would have been. Some would have been added later too. That big spike in the shorts was at the same time so would have been mostly instos hedging. I reckon a good chunk of the 30m closed short positions have just been firms returning shares they lent themselves for the hedge.
