Ild, There are hedge funds, and then there are HEDGE FUNDS. Here is a story link telling how the second quarter fared in 2Q06. money.cnn.com Excerpt:>>For the quarter, hedge funds are flat, according to the HFRI Index<< Don't think just because someone calls their fund a 'Hedge fund' that they all generate huge profits. That's silly. Someone has to be on the losing side of these trades. Now look at the earnings statements for GS, UBS, C, MER, CSR, LEH. Huge revenue growth in their proprietary trading units (their money) and weakness in the money they manage for others. I betcha if we had access to the hedge funds they work with we would see big gains as well. And, I bet they use the same hedge funds to collude to manipulate the markets. There is insider trading and then there is INSIDER TRADING. No one is suppose to have the insider knowledge of what the market is going to do five minutes from now without eventaully destroying our free market in stocks.
