Bus/Financial - Investment / Securities / Fund manager\'s report
English term or phrase: crowded trades
Context:

Indeed, the correction in early February was primarily driven by technical factors as it was to a large extent driven by the unwinding of some very *****crowded trades*****, and not by a reassessment of the fundamentals.

I found in French something like: "actifs identiques", which I could potentially translate as "títulos utilizados em estratégias idênticas" bearing in mind the explanation I found in English (pls see below).

Any input/suggestions will be highly appreciated.


A good explanation I found, in English:

https://www.advisorperspectives.com/commentaries/2018/07/17/...
One area in need of focus from risk managers that is particularly susceptible to high volatility environments is the risk associated with “crowded trades.” Crowded trades occur when many market participants trade the same security or securities while employing the same or similar strategy. In other words, many people trade the same stock for the same reason. While this can drive the price of a stock up during the accumulation phase, this can also create liquidity shortages that create forced selling at fire sale prices when that same stock moves out of favor.

Além disso, sob estas condições, os participantes do mercado estão particularmente expostos às estratégias de negociação empregues por muitos participantes do mercado em simultâneo e em grande escala, como em mercados lotados (crowded trades).

negociações congestionadas na bolsa


Explanation:
O termo ''trade'' não tem uma tradução literal, porém sabe-se que ''fazer trade'' é o ato de negociar ações na bolsa de valores, portanto, afirmo que essa seja a explicação mais acertiva para esse termo.

Example sentence(s):
  • ''Não consegui vender minhas ações pois essa negociação está muito congestionada.''
