Credit Crunch Averted
Filed in archive Hedgetalk on October 16, 2007
Overall, according to the Credit Suisse/Tremont Hedge Fund Index, the market environment has led to the majority of hedge fund sectors ending September on a positive note due to the the U.S. Federal Reserve moving to stop the spreading Credit Crunch from further impacting the global economy with a half-percentage-point cut in interest rates.
In particular, the Managed Futures sector benefited with a 5.13% return as the market rebounded and volatility rose, leaving managers with a positive opportunity set.
The Index is constructed using the Credit Suisse/Tremont database of more than 5,000 hedge funds. It includes both open and closed funds located in the U.S. and offshore, but does not include fund of funds. The Index is calculated as a total return index on a monthly basis, adjusted for asset in- and outflow, including a reselection according to the procedure outlined above on a quarterly basis.
