Odaily Planet Daily reports: White-Haired God of Stocks, Serenity, posted on X that Citadel’s recent actions have been dramatic. A few days ago, Citadel called for an unexpected interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve, triggering market panic; then, as Leopold Aschenbrenner’s fund, Situational Awareness, faced liquidity pressure, Citadel stepped in to purchase billions of dollars in AI-related assets being forced into sale.
Serenity noted that the Federal Reserve ultimately did not raise interest rates, and Citadel subsequently stated that "the bull market drivers remain intact."
Previous reports indicated that the Situational Awareness fund, affected by leveraged positions amid market declines, experienced a significant drop in net asset value in July and sold part of its public equity portfolio to meet margin requirements. Citadel subsequently acquired a portion of these assets at a discount.
Serenity believes that the long-term upward logic of the market has not changed, and this event is more akin to a reallocation of assets during the process of deleveraging.
