Hedge funds were caught in a game of cat-and-mouse with February inflation data.

It has been a very odd start to the year.  With the MSCI World touching levels not seen since pre-Jackson Hole in August, market strategists have been left scratching their heads.

For the first quarter, we continue to look to quantitative strategies for diversification, liquidity and risk management.

It’s a wonderful life? It wasn’t for crypto holders in 2022.

The only real surprise for December was that a year which has seen such persistently high volatility across all asset classes finished with something of a whimper.

After an extremely strong year, why did momentum give back some of its gains in November, and what lessons can asset allocators take?

Hedge funds had a mixed month in November, with losses to momentum strategies but positive returns to longer-biased exposures.

October was a mixed month for hedge funds, with positive returns in equity and credit funds, but negative returns in macro strategies.

With markets both volatile and fragile, we are focusing on risk managing our portfolios and identifying risks in our invested managers.
