Bloomberg:
Hedge funds' "absorption of US government debt has outpaced other US creditors, leaving the funds with roughly 8.5% — or about $2.7 trillion — of outstanding Treasuries as of late last year.
It’s a noteworthy sum given hedge funds’ ability to move rapidly, leverage their trades and their flexibility in selling a Treasury security."
