Greetings! just wanted to get some comments on a few alternative investment groups/ funds that are being marketed to me your comments on them will be much appreciated. 1) Market Wizards - Jack Swagger/ global fund analysis advisors 2) Man Investment products - Man Group plc. particularly the AHL and Multi- Strategy Guaranteed funds 3) Aspect Capital - Multi-aspect fund 4) Noble Investments
Caspain, This link was posted by Bob777 on another thread, it is well worth the time it takes to read. http://www.phillymag.com/Archives/2001June/prodigy.html This last weekends Barrons had a list of Hedge Funds and their 1 and 3 year returns. It does not take much in depth research to see that over three years the returns are nothing to brag about. If I were going to let someone else actively manage my money I would limit it to 5% of my investable capital. You just never know when your money may end up on some girls arm or in Haiti. Best of Luck
Sure, I also checked the Barrons for the funds you mentioned, I could not find any of them in the listing. Not that that is good or bad as I think this is a self-reporting group as opposed to SEC regulated open and closed end funds. Good Luck
Hmmm thats interesting i was under the impression that Man investment products would have a fund listed there since they are the largest hedgefund group in the world ($21B under management) oh well i know these products are not regulated just surprised that Man would not have a fund in there. Thanks once again.
Under the section Fund of Funds there is a Man-Glenwood Multi Strategy Fund 3Q Return was (-3.46%) 1 Yr Return was (-1.93%) 3 Yr Return was (24.93%) Under Commodity Funds Man-Vector Ltd. (Edge) 3Q was (9.7%) 1 Yr was (-7.74%) 3Yr was (-12.27%) Sorry, I did not look in these sections on my first pass.
Man oh Man what returns anyway i think those 2 are there worst performing funds . Thanks again you were a big help!
