In the latest edition of Carving Up the Consensus, our US equity

strategy team (led by Lori Calvasina) outlined how views and positioning
among long/short hedge funds, long-only actively managed mutual
funds, and sell-side analysts stack up by industry group, for both US
large caps (stocks in the R1000) and small caps (stocks in the R2000).
Key takeaways include: 1. More pockets of consensus thinking across
the three investor bases than in their May update; 2. Groups that
appear to be overly loved/over owned based on their analysis are large
cap Banks, large cap Semis & Semi Equipment (new to this update),
and small cap Software & Services; 3. Groups that appear to be
uniformly unloved/underowned on their analysis are large cap Capital
Goods (new to this update), small cap Retailing, small cap Household &
Personal Products, small cap Energy (new to this update), and small
cap Telecom (new to this update). Please contact your CS rep or log
onto CS Plus for the full report..

MARKET UPDATE
NY Time: 7:50 AM

20-May

With earnings winding down (~77% of S&P500 has reported) and not
much major macro on the US calendar (highlights will likely be Retail
Sales, PPI, and U-Mich), we may be in line for a light week. Volume last
week was slightly below the 100 day average. Asia and European
equities are helping the cause, with Japans Topix +2% and SHCOMP
+93 bps. Chinas trade balance came in with a higher surplus than
expected, with both exports (-4.4% vs. -3.5% expected) and imports (12.5% vs. -7.0% expected) coming in light. Reminder: China CPI and
PPI data will be released tonight. In Europe, volumes are light overall,
but up in the Healthcare and Insurance spaces. On the data side,
German IP rose 0.8%MoM in June versus - 0.9% in May. Other core
Europe IP reports (including Eurozone) will be released later this week.
In commodities, crude is +1.8%, possibly on comments from Qatars
energy minister that the current decline in oil prices is temporary, and
that he expects higher levels in 2H. According to Bloomberg, Russia
sees no need for renewing discussion of an oil-output freeze at current
crude prices, while leaving open the possibility for the future, and didnt
rule out speaking with his counterparts from OPEC member states at
the meeting of the International Energy Forum in Algiers on Sept. 26-28.

Chart of the Day: June Hedge Fund Outflows Largest Since December (Victor Lin)

According to eVestment, global hedge fund outflows exceeded

$20bn in June, the most since December.

Long/short equity funds had nearly $10bn in redemption, or

equivalent to 1.5% of total assets. Negative sentiment
regarding performance has likely weighed on funds in this
category (see Hedge Fund Bulletin for recent performance).

Other strategies that experienced a high percentage of

redemptions were Macro and Directional Credit - both of which
had more than 2% of assets redeemed.

In contrast, market neutral equity, managed futures, and relative

value credit were the few strategies to receive slight inflows.

Commodity funds attracted new assets of slightly more than

$1bn with gold and oil moves helping to drive popularity.

Note that redemption notices tend to be a minimum of one

month.
