hedge fund launches surge? The stupidity of hedge fund investors absolutely amazes me.

As long as they're on the Squid's list server they should do OK.
I noticed that Merrill's HY C Rated index returned 96.8% in 2009.
Still amazes me.
It used to be called Reaching for Yield. But now, it should be called, "Groping in the dark for yield"

Yeah Appaloosa's largest fund reported approx. 117%... @ 1$12bn under mgt. they should be up there.
