A hedge fund is a fund that can take both long and short positions, use
arbitrage, buy and sell distressed securities, trade options or bonds, and
invest in just about any opportunity in any market where it foresees
impressive gains at reduced risk. Hedge funds often hedge against downturns
in the markets, which is especially important today with volatility and
anticipation of corrections in overheated stock markets.
There are approximately 14 distinct investment strategies used by
hedge funds, each offering different degrees of risk and return. A macro
hedge fund, for example, invests in stock and bond markets and other
investment opportunities in hopes of profiting on significant shifts in such
things as global interest rates and countries’ economic policies. It is more
volatile but potentially faster growing than a distressed-securities hedge
fund that buys the equity or debt of companies about to enter or exit
financial distress. A third type of hedge fund, an equity hedge fund, may be
global or country specific, hedging against downturns in equity markets by
shorting overvalued stocks or stock indexes, while a relative value hedge
fund is one which trades off differences of securities in the same capital
structure.
