After more than 5 weeks of painfully extracting information from 35 different managers we work with (you would think they would be more willing and able to share the how, when, why, and where of the year just gone by), our annual CTA by CTA review highlighting what happened for each of the programs we track in 2010 – is up on our site at https://bit.ly/dHxbS1
We’ve got over 21 pages of details on 35 managers and 53 managed futures programs, with links to the performance track records of each on the Attain website. What will you find….that it was a good year for multi-market systematic programs (the bulk of managed futures investments), a down year for short term programs, an up year for discretionary traders and spread traders, and a mixed bag for specialty managers, stock index traders, and option selling managed futures programs.
There were outright winners (Accela, Clarke Worldwide, Rosetta, and Dighton), outright losers (HB Capital, Paskewitz,Dominion, & Clarke Global Basic), and a few managers (Emil Van Essen, FCI, 2100 Xenon) positive, yet below what they would have hoped for (and below the managed futures benchmarks).
