West Palm Beach (HedgeCo.Net)- The Greenwich Global Hedge Fund Index (GGHFI), which currently includes 1091 hedge funds, returned 2.21% in February, rebounding from January’s poor returns. <\/p>\n
The S&P 500 and MSCI World Equity posted negative returns, while the FTSE 100 gained. All hedge fund strategy groups ended the month with gains.<\/p>\n
"February’s rebound in the midst of market uncertainty continues to highlight the diversification benefits of hedge funds," notes Margaret Gilbert, Greenwich Managing Director.<\/p>\n
Directional Trading Group’s return was the strongest, driven largely by futures managers who capitalized on volatile commodities markets. Long-Short Equity Group strategies also benefited from choppy equity markets and for the second month in a row, dedicated short sellers were the top performers in this group.<\/p>\n
