Greetings all. Look at this quote:
So, as of this coming Tuesday, right? They're talking about the future, while using past tense.

Hedge funds bizarre? Apparently my pension plan doesn't believe so. We received word early this year they were seeking to invest about a billion or so spread over several diferent hedge funds. So far, they've invested about 600 million with two separate funds. I'm not as miffed as when I initially found out, as the plan's total assets were around 31 billion. I think I'll keep them out of my own personal portfolio tho.

Methinks this whole indexing fad has gone a bit too far.

Well it's really just a fund of funds hedge fund. Okay if you like that sort of thing. Hedge funds as it turns out are a big thing for high net worth individuals in the US. Less so internationally but it is catching on. This according to Merrill Lynch's World Wealth Report. ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
