Assets and returns were for the 10 months ended on Oct. 31.

Steve Cohen’s SAC Capital International was actually the most-profitable fund in 2013, according to Bloomberg data, however Cohen isn’t on the most-profitable list this year because he is returning investors’ money as his firm settles criminal charges from the U.S. government.
Some of the biggest managers were the biggest disappointments in 2013. Ray Dalio, who runs Bridgewater Associates LP, returned just 6 percent through October in his $63 billion Pure Alpha II fund, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The full lists are available here.
