Investors are stepping up their hedging game as AI risks reshape market dynamics. Credit default swaps (CDS) on major tech stocks hit $8 billion in weekly trading volume last December—a record high. What's striking? The activity has surged over 100% since August alone. This spike tells a clear story: portfolio managers aren't taking chances. They're locking in downside protection while markets remain unpredictable. The rush to hedge against tech volatility reflects a broader shift—when uncertainty peaks, smart money moves fast.

Are all the short sellers of tech stocks frantically hedging? What does that indicate? Everyone's got no confidence inside.

$800 million CDS trading volume doubles? There must be big players quietly positioning behind the scenes. Retail investors are always the last to know.
