Stuff Happens

Posted at 6:00 amThere seems to be stuff going on in the global financial markets. I don’t follow this topic that closely, so who knows? Anyway, Dealbreaker provides some rumors on the performance of the two largest Eph-connected hedge funds: Andreas Halvorsen’s ‘86 Viking and Chase Coleman’s ‘97 Tiger Global.
Viking
Sept 08
-7.90%

+0.30%Tiger Global

-14.30%
YTD
-13.70%
Do any of the other funds listed have significant Eph connections?
For Viking to be flat year-to-date is a stunning achievement in this environment, especially after making 40% in 2007. Even Tiger is doing much better than many other large hedge funds. If we combine 2007 and 2008, then both Halvorsen and Coleman have done remarkably well.
But there is a long way to go before December 31 . . .
