NEW YORK/LONDON (Reuters) – Hedge funds ditched energy stocks last week for the first time in three weeks, despite a rally in oil prices triggered by the prospect of a widening supply deficit, Goldman Sachs said in a report.

The move, according to the bank’s prime brokerage unit, was mainly led by short sales, meaning that hedge funds were speculating on a decline in energy stocks’ prices. The bank said sales occurred in both North America and Europe.

Goldman Sachs, as one of the biggest providers of lending and trading services to investors through its prime brokerage unit, is able to track hedge funds’ investment trends.
