\"E014087\"<\/a>New York (HedgeCo.Net) – The hedge fund industry redeemed $5.1 billion (0.2% of assets) in September,\u00a0BarclayHedge and TrimTabs Investment Research reports, making it the largest outflow since December 2013 and only the second outflow this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cHedge fund inflows slowed sharply in the third quarter,\u201d said Sol Waksman, president and founder of BarclayHedge. \u201cThe industry raked in $82.1 billion in the first half of 2014 \u2014 more than in the previous three years combined \u2014 but inflows subsided to $12.6 billion in the third quarter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Industry assets stood at a six-year high of $2.38 trillion in September, according to estimates based on data from 3,490 funds. Assets climbed 18.8% in the past 12 months and are down just 2.4% from the all-time high of $2.44 trillion in June 2008.<\/p>\n

The monthly TrimTabs\/BarclayHedge Hedge Fund Flow Report noted that the hedge fund industry lost 1.3% in September, the worst return in 15 months, but it outperformed the S&P 500, which lost 1.4%. In the past 12 months, hedge funds returned 10.3%, while the S&P 500 gained 19.7%.<\/p>\n

\u201cMacro funds performed best in September, gaining 1.2%, while Distressed Securities funds had the strongest inflows at $1.7 billion,\u201d said Waksman. He also noted that despite superior returns in September, Macro funds have the largest redemptions year-to-date ($6.3 billion) and in the past 12 months ($9.8 billion).<\/p>\n

The monthly TrimTabs\/BarclayHedge Survey of Hedge Fund Managers finds managers were more optimistic on stocks in October than they had been all year. A majority of respondents expects developed markets to outperform emerging and frontier markets over the next six months, a trend that has persisted for 20 consecutive months. Bullishness on gold fell to its lowest point in 17 months.<\/p>\n
