The Misery Continues: Complete November Hedge Fund Performance
Presenting complete hedge fund performance for the month of November and Year to Date. By the looks of things, this will be a year which will not only remain in infamy for hedge fund performance (now that we are just 15 trading days away from the end), but one where about a third of hedge fund will almost certainly be redeemed into extinction.

Ha, and I would think the "plus" in Paulson Advantage Plus would be for a gain of 16% not a loss!
Also, how the hell, in 2011, did Paulson International beat out the domestic Paulson funds?
with the "Plus" they add: no vaseline
i'll bet mrPaulson has a few great stories about the "Paulson Recovery" investments, too!
but, now that he has the "anti-tilson" formulae, paulson will never hafta work, again...
look for a new funds called
Paulson Ultra No Money Down Leverage To The Max Fund
and
Paulson Ultra No Money Down Leverage To The Max Plus CDS Plus MBS Fund
When the smart money wakes up and realizes a hedge fund cant justify 2 & 20 and have to much of a concentration in any one asset, especially if that asset is gold - hopefully there will be redemptions and a quest for physical gold.
LOL
And to think that my major positions in TLT and PHYS blew away even Brevan Howard in #1 position without any horseshit 2&20 or leverage.
Hedge, my ass.
Take any half decent pick, add a pissload of leverage in a bull market and there you be, Mr. Hedgie.
Fuck 'em.
And now:
1. Use shadow stats to adjust for inflation
2. Smear on the vasaline and pay the taxes!
Meanwhile they still collect the 2% and with that and loosing a ton of money they "manage" they earn in a week what you and I earn in our lifetime my friend.
and pay capital gains tax rates on what is fee income.
Nope the new funds:
Paulson "Just give my your Damn Money and I will squander it the way I feel Like on Hookers and Cocaine" Fund.
I am the shadow writer for the Lion Fund... I could have done much much better without my stupid mandate and restrictions.... Fuck it. I´ll be out soon at that rate. Never lost money in 11 years. Got to manage the whole thing after the other manager prick blew up in 2008 while I made 2%. Fuck, fuck and FUUUUUUUUUUUUCKK!!! Got to beat Gabelli arb stupid ass and and I am a fucking shadow writer................
thanks for the insights.
So actually, "Hedge" Funds can't hedge? Why pay 2/20 to but AAPL when you can do that all alone at no cost?
Down 47%? That's worse than just throwing darts...
The real misery will come in January, according to Gerald Celente!

Could come earlier....
Paulson was blindsided by the illusion of "recovery."
So the more you pay Paulson for "advantage(s)" the more money you lose?
One comment about how they don't seem to know where the money that disappeared at MF Global went.
Might I suggest that it was the invisible hand that took it?

Halcyon is a smart fund.
How do you figure? They are only up 5% YTD. The dollar has lost at least 10% this year plus 2% for their fee.
Hugh Hendry is supposedly up about 30% YTD as is Ray Dalio at Bridgewater.
Clearly not well "Hedged". Performance in this choppy, emotional, contradictory environment will stink in the absence of massive Fed interventions. And 2011 was the year that the Fed tried to tap the brakes just a tiny bit.
Jan 2011: "I'm with team Paulson Advantage Plus, Bitchez!"
Dec 2011: "Why am I with team Paulson Advantage Plus? What am I doing wrong!"
Jan 2012: "I'm with team Paulson Enhanced, Bitchez!"
...
Paulson's Bitchez Fund
Being a river delta we see a lot of shit floating by, ESM takes the 2011 prize.
If Madoff hadn't turned himself in, his fund would be #1 !
Fuckin Paulson..
Might want to just go ahead and liquidate, on the off chance there would be something to give back.
Paulson still has some gold, I think. Unles that was him liquidating today.
He is getting squeezed.
2and 20 for a return rate no better than a CD. Money well invested.
There's a big YTD winner on slide 23
TLO
US treasury actually beat 'em all
For one year, maybe. Look at the annual average return since inception. Remember, 72/x for doubling rates. Some of those funds doubled their value every 3 years for 12+ years.
I don't care about the past. What have you done for me lately? Just because you could make money in a market when leverage was piled on leverage doesn't mean anything. What can you do in a deleveraging environment is what I want to know.
why do you start the ranking from brevan ? discus and stratus funds from frenchies cfm are doing well also
Sorted by YTD
Are those "since inception" numbers including 2011 YTD? Paulson Enhanced at 20% average growth for 10 years is pretty decent. Pulson Credit Opportunities at 60% average return for the last 5 years isn't too shabby either.
There's a few nice ones in there with mid to high 20s average return over 10 or more years, nothing to sneeze at.
That´s true except that Paulson has nothing do within an arb fund category.
Next up : Paulson Pardon Fund
Come on. When Paulson fund made money all these funds were in the red.
Despite all the descriptions as 'hedge funds' these companies do nothing of the sort, the vast majority have punted on equity sectors in the latest secular bear market rally. Tossers to a man..
Renaissance & Blackrock not listed?...
Paulson is that lonely guy you see in Vegas playing roulette all by himself with huge stacks of chips on just 2 or 3 numbers he "knows" are about to hit. Then you hear him yell and cuss and everyone looks over to the table.
dupe
I'm guessing Paulson is going to have a few less invites to be a talking head next year...
Maybe Paulson is not getting inside shady deals with Goldman anymore.
Hahaha! You just gotta laugh at some of these names:
- Paulson Advantage Plus (dow 47% ytd)
- Paulson Recovery (down 27%)
Geez - they probably put you in the Paulson Recovery Fund-where you're only slated to lose 27% - ro recover from the 47% beating you took in the Paulson Advantage Plus!!!
TOO DAMN FUNNY! LOL!!
You can teach monkeys to trade better than that.
