Eurekahedge Hedge Fund Index up 7.27% YTD

Wednesday, December 18, 2019

Laxman Pai, Opalesque Asia:

The Eurekahedge Hedge Fund Index was up 7.27% end of November 2019, supported by the risk-on sentiment among investors and accommodative central bank policies throughout the year.

Roughly 33.2% of the hedge fund managers comprising the index have recorded double-digit gains over the first 10 months of the year compared to 9.3% over the same period last year.

Meanwhile, the global hedge fund industry AUM has declined by US$16.4 billion as of November. Investor redemptions totaling US$131.8 billion have been recorded throughout 2019, a level the industry has not seen since the 2008 global financial crisis.

The Eurekahedge North American Hedge Fund Index was up 7.86% year-to-date, as fund managers focusing on the region benefited from the equity market rally throughout the year.

The S&P 500 has gained 25.30% as of November 2019 year-to-date, while the tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite was up 30.60% over the same period. North American hedge fund managers have recorded US$81.0 billion of performance growth year-to-date.

The Eurekahedge Greater China Hedge Fund Index edged 0.53% higher in November up 12.15% year-to-date despite the weak performance of the region's equity markets during the month. The US$29.4 billion mandate has seen US$1.9 billion of performance growth, offset by US$0.5 billion of investor redemptions year-to-date.
