INTEL: $17B hedge fund Walleye Capital appears to be caught in the AI tech sell-off, and the mysterious seller looking to dump $500M in data center loans may have just been exposed.

Following its worst month since March 2020, Walleye has announced a major restructuring of its equity business, parting ways with its leadership and a substantial portion of its portfolio managers.

The firm also plans to return a portion of its investors’ capital.

Now, speculation is mounting that Walleye could be behind the mysterious $500M data center loan sale, potentially dumping assets as it retreats amid mounting pressure.

If confirmed, this would be another major warning sign that the AI trade’s pain may be spreading beyond public equities and into private credit.
