On November 27, KobeissiLetter released data showing that U.S. trading margin debt surged by $57.2 billion in October, reaching a record $1.2 trillion, and has risen for the sixth consecutive month. So far this year, U.S. trading margin debt has increased by $285 billion, a 32% increase. Over the past six months, margin debt has skyrocketed by 39%, the largest increase since 2000, even surpassing the increase during the 2021 meme stock frenzy, with the leverage in the U.S. investment market now being excessively high. Trading margin debt refers to the total amount of debt that investors incur by borrowing money from brokers to purchase stocks or other securities, allowing them to amplify their investment size with less of their own capital, thus magnifying potential profits but also risks.
