Hedge funds should have their best lives

This year’s 60% increase in the share price of Man Group Plc, the world’s largest publicly traded hedge fund, is testament to a resurgence in investor sentiment towards heavier asset managers. . Industry returns averaged around 1.7% in October, boosting full-year performance to more than 10.5%. That puts hedge funds on track for their best year since Bloomberg began collating the data in 2013.
