Today's WSJ Heard on the Street: Robertson's Tiger Hedge Funds Maul Rivals, Returning 63% Before Fees, Mainly Since June ---- By Laura Jereski Staff Reporter of The Wall Street Journal Think you had a good year? Consider the take at Tiger Management Corp., the hedge-fund group managed by Julian Robertson. So far this year, those funds' performance is up about 63% before fees, which in turn has boosted capital by almost $6 billion, to more than $15 billion. That is the single-largest surge in capital this year for any of the private investment partnerships known as hedge funds ....... Mr. Robertson said in an interview that the bulk of his gains came from stock-market bets, which he says encompass equity futures positions in Japan and Hong Kong as well as big stakes in individual U.S. stocks. He also has longstanding short positions, among them Micron Technology and Ascend Communications. excerpt from interactive2.wsj.com
