Not correct about Mother Rock it appears..

"re: Bo Collins & Mother Rock Hedge Fund Bite the Dust.

From uber-leverage on stocks & futures in Oil & Gold...all long."

It appears you are not correct on Mother Rock (I'll look into the rest, the latter ones may indeed have been long..):

thestreet.com

"In a May investor update, MotherRock the hedge fund's "natural gas book was hurt primarily by a loss on volatility spread trading .'

All reports that I have seen indicate that Mother Rock miscalculated the volatility not the rise or fall of NGas prices.

It should be noted that they closed after there was an unexpected spike UP in prices in late July early August, not down:
