How To Borrow 16,5 Bn Stocks "silently"?
Diupdate
Past days more and more information are available about the Bridegwater Shortpositions in Europe.
This are the facts:
Known Shortpositions:
6,3 Mrd. Euro: DAX
3,0 Mrd. Euro: Italien
1,2 Mrd. Euro: IBEX35 Werte
1,1 Mrd. Euro: Total
0,7 Mrd. Euro: Sanofi
0,6 Mrd. Euro: BNP
0,5 Mrd. Euro: ING
0,5 Mrd. Euro: ASML Holding
0,5 Mrd. Euro: AXA
------------------
13,30 Mrd. Euro or 16,5 Bn. Dollar (sources below)
According to bloomberg.com & Zerohedge this is the largest Shortposition in Bridgewaters History. But: Bridgewater can not sell at least stocks worth 16,5 Stocks naked according new European regualtions:
Quote: "EU Regulation on Short Selling and certain aspects of credit default swaps N 236/2012 came into force on 1 November 2012 with the aim of achieving the following:
Quote: The Regulation means that in relation to the short selling of shares and of sovereign debt instruments and the taking of sovereign credit default swaps positions the following requirements apply:
All short sales of shares must be covered by either having borrowed them, having arranged to borrow them; or have an arrangement with a third party confirming their location (i.e. naked short selling in shares is now banned);"
Source: esma.europa.eu/regulation/trading/short-selling
To sell stocks short for 16,5 Billion US Dollar there are just 3 ways to do it:
1. Bridgewater ownes this stocks.
2. Bridgewater borrowed this stocks.
3. Both of each.
This are my questions:
- If a hedgefonds borrows stocks about up to 16,5 Billions - how does this works?
- Who is giving this stocks to Bridegwater?
- How many Traders know about or are involved in this transactions?
For European Stockmarkets at least 16,5 Billion US Dollar short sold stocks in this short period of times are not "small potatoes".

This happened last week to Banca Intesa Sanpaolo, one of Bridgewaters favourit short pics:This is the story behind:
cnbc.com/2017/10/13/italian-bank-ceo-to-ray-dalio-you-will-lose-your-multi-million-bet.html
The question finally is: How to calculate any risk for any position, even short or long.
Trade aktif
I need to calculate this - how can i?
a) Allianz keeps absolutely quite trusting that stockmarkets are a functional system
b) Allianz is going to defend itself agains an aggressive shortseller
c) Shareholders from Allianz of other company adding pressure to the boards to defend against bridgewater
d) More traders getting involved in this stocks and long or short them on what will happen now.
so what is my risk now if:
a) shorting the market
b) or long the market
Bridgewater could not short stocks maybe for 1 or 2 Billion only? No. They want to make something like "the big short". And expecting that all those companies keeps absolutely quite. Banca Intesa Sanpaolo is showing us absolutely clearly, that some CEO aren´t quite and just let Bridgewater do whatever they want to do. This is my risk - and i have no idea to calculate this risk.

Now - talking down the Markets?Ray Dalio: 'Risks of a recession' are rising
Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio says in a LinkedIn blog post that the Federal Reserve's response to better-than-expected economic data and more fiscal spending may lead to an economic slowdown.
"What we do know is that we are in the part of the cycle in which the central banks' getting monetary policy right is difficult and that this time around the balancing act will be especially difficult," he writes.
The firm manages about $160 billion, according to its website.

Latest update on Bridgewater: It's Dalio Versus Everyone Else as Money Flows to Europe
I’m surprised. That’s a big bet. Dalio and his team are very confident,” said Rick Herman, managing director of asset allocation who helps oversee about $30 billion at BB&T Institutional Investment Advisors Inc. “That’s definitely out of consensus. European stocks are cheaper, and they also have stronger earnings growth.”
