Hedge Funds Record Highest Weekly Net Buying in South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan Stocks in a Decade

Hedge funds' aggressive buying of Asian stocks is increasing regional risk appetite, which could positively impact global banks such as Morgan Stanley. Technically, the stock is trading just below its 20-day moving average (191.67), but with the RSI at 47 in neutral territory and the MACD approaching its signal line, there is potential for a short-term recovery. However, yesterday's 1% decline and the price hovering near the 50-day moving average (191.00) suggest that any upside may be limited. Therefore, I expect a cautious rally.

Hedge funds' purchases of Asian stocks could increase overall risk appetite, but this is not a direct catalyst for GOOGL specifically. Technically, the RSI at 38 is approaching oversold territory, while the MACD is below the signal line and near zero. The price is trading below both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages, indicating short-term weakness. The recent 1.76% decline at the last close and weak momentum indicators do not provide sufficient strength for an upward move. Therefore, a sideways or slightly bearish trend can be expected in the short term.

Hedge funds have recorded their largest weekly buying of regional equities in a decade, signaling strong institutional demand for the KOSPI. Technically, the price is trading above both the 20-day and 50-day moving averages, with the RSI at 55, indicating a neutral-to-slightly bullish zone. Although the MACD line remains below the signal line, it is in positive territory, suggesting that momentum has not completely faded. The 5.6% rise in the last 24 hours confirms continued buying appetite. However, since the market has not yet entered overbought territory in the short term, there is potential for the uptrend to continue further.

Hedge funds have recorded their largest weekly buying of regional stocks in a decade, indicating strong institutional demand for Japan. Technically, the N225 is trading above its 20- and 50-day moving averages, with the RSI at 57.6, near the neutral-bearish zone. Although the MACD line remains below the signal line, it is in positive territory, suggesting short-term upside potential. However, the slight decline in the latest close and the MACD being below the signal line indicate that the rally may be limited. Overall, fund flows and technical structure create a short-term bullish expectation.
