Viewpoint: Micron to Face Roughly 2 Million Shares of Forced Selling on Monday, Passive Rebalancing of Leveraged Products to Suppress South Korean Stock Market

BlockBeats News, June 7th - Leverage product researcher degentrading stated that the Hong Kong-listed leveraged fund, Southbound Double Long SK Hynix (7709.HK), due to a significant drop in the price of the South Korean stock SK Hynix last week, needed to forcibly sell about 2 million shares at the opening of the South Korean market on Monday. This sell order size is equivalent to 40% of SK Hynix's normal daily trading volume, creating huge and mechanistic selling pressure. What's more troublesome is that the leverage product's gamma effect will cause more price drops, leading to more selling pressure and potentially triggering a chain reaction.
