You're right, the period was "hand picked", but that's because I was looking at a 5 year graph with the high and low marked, and just used those numbers. The movement before/after 2008 wasn't the 40 percentage points that would be needed for the hedge funds to do as poorly as the market, so I didn't bother. But I just looked the exact numbers up. The S&P 500 opened January 2nd at 1467.97 and closed December 31st at 903.25. A 38.5% loss instead of the 60% I said, but that's still almost twice the loss of the hedge funds. |
