Halloween 2008 | Scariest One Yet

1. Hedge fund gating clauses, lock-up periods and other agreements screen the true level of hedge fund redemptions. Is it hard to know how much capital is waiting to leave the industry.
   
2. While I don't believe is, Soros could be right. The hedge fund industry could shrink by over 50% and it could take 5-7 years to climb out of that hole as an industry.
3. I have not ran an analysis of this yet, but I seem to be seeing more frequent cases of hedge fund fraud. The media loves to highlight these rare cases, the last thing the industry needs is for these cases to become less rare.
4. This financial crisis has come at a time when some headway was being made by a few hedge fund managers and industry association groups towards lessening hedge fund regulation, specifically on marketing regulations here in the US. The crisis may have negated some of those efforts for the time being.
5. Even the most intelligent, well-informed, most sophisticated, well diversified and nimble trading managers in the world have been hit hard over the past 2 months.
