The  indices provide scores out of 100 and are updated on a regular basis.<\/p>\n<p>  Alex Akesson<br \/>  Editor for HedgeCo.Net<br \/>  Email: <a href=\"mailto:alex@hedgeco.net\">alex@hedgeco.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p>  HedgeCo.Net is a premier hedge fund database and community for qualified and accredited investors only.
