Short Selling Ban

Short Selling Ban – How it has impacted Funds

Short Selling BanThe Boston Globe recently released an article on the short selling ban – it covers how different funds are being affected by the recent ban on the short selling of some securities.

While these are times when events seem to happen daily which should only happen bi-centennially I’m still surprised by how “business as usual” many professionals I work with and speak to in the industry seem to be. Even though many funds do have negative performance – I believe that many groups are confident that the losses may soon be regained. Many hedge fund marketers, consultants and niche service providers seem to be weathering the storm without too much pain yet.
