We wanted to know who the best hedge fund managers in the world are. You would think this kind of information is easy to come by. It’s neither easy to come by nor is it free. Except here at HSAX & CO., LLC. In order to get to the bottom of this, we commissioned BarclayHedge, a leading third party independent database provider to create an exclusive comparative analysis report.
Our first revelation was and it should come as no surprise; the biggest are not the best. Warren Buffett would be the first to tell you that he could hit the ball out of the park a lot more often with less money under management. Often times these emerging managers can produce years of outsized returns before they too fall victim to the law of large numbers. Savvy and opportunistic investors, though, can ride their coat tails and reap these financial benefits for years before results inevitably begin to diminish. Just ask the early Buffett investors. Those investors are all multi-millionaires thanks to their good sense and fortune to get into Buffett’s Partnership in the early innings. Those that got in later have not done nearly as well. But that doesn’t mean YOU have to accept sub-par performance.
