One of the chief problems for pickers last year, however, was the expectation that several mega-cap stocks had become so overvalued that they had become ripe for shorting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-it-matters-nbsp\"><strong>Why It Matters<\/strong>:&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/markets\/equities\/24\/01\/36510120\/short-sellers-nightmare-195b-evaporates-in-2023s-market-surge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Short selling is tougher to do<\/a>&nbsp;nowadays. Market gains gathered pace and data from S3 Partners, published last month, showed that short sellers in the U.S. and Canada lost a total of $194.4 billion over the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to S3 Partners, the three most shorted stocks during the last couple of months of 2023 were&nbsp;<strong>Apple Inc<\/strong>., <strong>Microsoft Corp<\/strong>.&nbsp;and<strong>&nbsp;Tesla Inc<\/strong>., whose shares had reached record levels during the fourth-quarter rally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most unprofitable shorts in 2023 were Tesla, with mark-to-market losses of $12.2 billion;&nbsp;<strong>Nvidia Corp<\/strong>.&nbsp;with losses of $11.2 billion; and Apple, with $7.3 billion of losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"650\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/newplot-70.png\" alt=\"Growth of $1000 investment in NVDA vs major indices\" class=\"wp-image-202128 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/newplot-70.png 750w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/newplot-70-700x607.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/02\/newplot-70-300x260.png 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 750px; aspect-ratio: 750\/650;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Morningstar data\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.morningstar.co.uk\/uk\/tools\/categoryoverview.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">shows<\/a>\u00a0that global long-short equity funds made an average annual return of 1.98% in 2023, and only 4.18% over a three-year timescale.

His Fundsmith equity fund rose by 12.4% in 2023 after losing 13.8% in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smith has also seen investors withdraw funds and has urged them to take a longer-term view of the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">U.S. Treasury Funds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the poorest-performing strategies were funds linked to U.S. government bonds, whose yields saw some turbulence during the second half of 2023. USD Government Bond funds fell by an average 4% over the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By comparison, an ETF that holds Treasuries over a spread of maturities, climbed 1.5% over 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-s-next\"><strong>What\u2019s Next<\/strong>: <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>U.S. government bond fund strategies could be coming under threat from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/news\/press-release\/2024-14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">new rules<\/a>&nbsp;introduced by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) this week. The rule will require hedge funds and other traders that manage more than $50 million in assets to register as dealers with the SEC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Managers say the new rules bring greater compliance risk and costs, as well as closer scrutiny of their activities.
