Hedge fund strategy rebound

 

There has been a strong rebound in hedge fund strategy performance in April after poor March returns. All the HedgeIndex Main strategy returns were positive for the month, with especially strong performance in emerging markets, global macro, and long/short equity. Of course, the overall equity market showed strong April gains, so the market exposure for these strategies provided a tailwind, and positions placed at the end of the market were able to take advantage of the stock market improvement despite the continued uncertainty associated with the Iran War.
