Editor's Desk: Mutual Funds' Interest in Hedge Funds May be Due To More Than Performance
With the stratospheric salaries that hedge fund managers are earning these days, there may be more to mutual fund managers' interest in employing hedge fund strategies than performance. Sure, they claim they're turning to riskier tactics to deliver better returns and distinguish themselves from the competition. In fact, many experts believe that mutual funds' use of hedge fund strategies is a growing trend and that the lines between institutional and retail investment strategies will blur.
But the salaries that hedge fund managers are earning are mind-blowing. Certainly, they haven't escaped the attention of mutual fund portfolio managers-and they could potentially lead to more lucrative deals for mutual fund executives who look to join the elite.
Can you imagine a hedge fund manager earning as much as $2 billion and returning 317% in a single year? John Arnold, head of Centaurus Energy, accomplished this astounding feat by betting correctly on the price of natural gas, according to Trader Monthly, which just released its list of the 100 highest-paid hedge fund managers. And Arnold did it with just $2 billion in assets. Even more impressive, since launching his fund in 2002, the 33-year-old has returned 200%-plus every year except 2005, when his fund was up 178%.
Next up is James Simons, who runs the $5.7 billion Medallion fund, which rose 40% in 2006 and also earned him between $1.5 billion and $2 billion. The 68-year-old MIT graduate has had an impressive career, first starting out as a mathematician and codebreaker for the Defense Department.
According to Trader, Simons and Arnold each earned the largest sum anyone has ever earned in a single year. Following them, the next three highest-paid hedge fund managers took home more than $1 billion: Edward Lampert of ESL Investments and T. Boone Pickens of BP Capital, both of whom raked in between $1 billion-$1.5 billion, and Steve Cohen of SAC Capital Advisors, who banked $1 billion. The average take for the top 100 was $241 million.
Put in the context of what one of the top earners in the mutual fund industry earned in 2005-Mario Gabelli's $55.5 million-the figures are truly incredible and will undoubtedly motivate more mutual fund managers to reach for the hedge fund stars.
Let's see if they manage to take investors along for the ride.

A quick access to the Discount Christian Louboutins by the clinicians concerned before ordering the Christian Louboutin Uk Sale could have avoided this duplication, which cost the NHS money. And saving money in simple ways is surely what Christian Louboutin Shoes should be thinking about in these hard times. It occurred to me that clinicians are still not attuned to the power of Christian Louboutin Boots, even in the elementary form of paths Christian louboutin Pumps. They need a lot more education to understand the digital revolution. http://www.saleslouboutinuk.com/

When I was enrolled to a college, I had to go to a strange city for studying. I didn't know it very much. After living in my college campus for several weeks, I wanted to buy canada goose jackets, but I wasn't sure that where I could buy them. Meanwhile, my friends advised me to buy canada goose parka that were also very nice. So I walked along the street, and asked a salesman that told me where they were sold. And he guided me. He began to recommend me to buy some others. It was seemed that all of them were very cheap. So I bought them. After I went back to the school, I tried to wear them. All of them were in poor quality. When I washed them, the color faded. My friend, Ken always likes going to the picnic in a village. Last week, I bought canada goose outlet and canda goose jackets. And then I wore them to see whether they were suitable. So I went with Ken. When we walked in a trail, the village landscapes were so fascinated that I didn't know where we were. The environment was very tranquil. And I breathed fresh air to relax. I recovered my energy from my tiring job. I had a good mood at that time. Meanwhile, the shoes were really suitable for doing some sports. I didn't feel tired. We went back and had dinner together. I told Ken that it was a very wonderful landscape there. So next time, I was glad to go there with him again.
