The study warns that hedge fund returns will erode further if fundcompanies fail to modify their investment strategies. According to Jan Loeys, the head of JP Morgan\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds market strategy and the leader of the study, many hedge funds have succeeded to the point that\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdpricing has adapted to their activities\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bd making it harder for them to attain higher returns.<\/p>\n<p>  The study however, did not paint a pessimistic view for the future of hedge funds. It said, &#8220;it is probably too early to write off hedge funds&#8221;, but nonetheless, it raises concerns about their  future chances if they fail to alter their tactics, focusing more on strategies where they hold advantages.<\/p>\n<p>  The study also stated, &#8220;Hedge funds are more effective tactical risk-takers than most other asset managers because they are much more specialized; they are subject to fewer restrictions and  constraints; and they have been able to ride the wave of product innovation in the financial industry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>  According to Mr. Loeys, hedge funds should avoid strategies used by many investors and must develop a proprietary method of research enabling them to apply superior analytical research methods in  their evaluation of trading situations. As an increasing number of new hedge funds hit the market, trading opportunities have dwindled at the same time. Today there are estimates of over 8,000  hedge funds, managing over $1 trillion in investor assets.<\/p>\n<p>  Paul Oranika<br \/>  Editor-in-Chief<br \/>  HedgeCo.Net<br \/>  Email: Editor@hedgeco.net<\/p>\n<p>  HedgeCo.Net is the most popular hedge fund database and community in the world.
