Citadel acquired over $4 billion in assets from the AI-focused hedge fund Situational Awareness after the latter faced steep losses and was forced to sell its public stock positions. Ken Griffin, Citadel's CEO, said the firm has unwound more than 80% of the risk from the original portfolio through over 100 block trades. The fund had concentrated bets on AI stocks but suffered losses on both long and short positions, triggering margin calls and forced sales. Citadel's intervention marked a turning point as the AI trade rebounded following the sale. Additionally, Citadel's Wellington fund posted its best monthly return since 2022, gaining 5.94% in July.
