CNBC – A few billionaire investors have added to their fortunes with big takes in 2014, but others in the hedge fund industry aren’t likely to see a fat bonus this year, relatively speaking.
Bill Ackman, head of the best performing large hedge fund firm, is poised to pull in at least $1 billion, according to rough CNBC calculations using his net worth, stake in $19 billion Pershing Square Capital Management and the fund’s stellar 35 percent return net of fees through early December.
