Investing.com -- Commodity Trading Advisors (CTA), also known as trend following investors, have significantly increased their long positions in global equities over the past month.

Their overall positioning now stands at $165 billion, according to Cullen Morgan of Goldman Sachs. On a scale of exposure, these funds are currently rated at a 4 out of 10.

Looking ahead, this group of investors is predicted to continue buying both US and global stocks in nearly all scenarios over the next week and month.

However, there is one exception to this trend. If the market were to decline over the next month, these investors would need to sell a substantial $98.5 billion in equities.

Morgan has also projected a lesser amount of baseline buying for the next month, totaling around $30 billion. The majority of this, approximately $24 billion, is expected to be invested in US markets.
