Hedge funds are betting against shopping mall operator Hammerson

Hammerson, which owns some of Britain’s biggest shopping centres including London’s Brent Cross, has been hit hard by the pandemic, which has closed thousands of retail stores

British shopping mall operator Hammerson was the most shorted UK-listed company in July, with 13.9% of its stock held short by nine investment firms.

Hedge fund Caxton Europe held the largest short position with 4.33% of Hammerson’s shares, as of July 15, according to new research from exchange-traded fund provider GraniteShares.
