I had an interesting conversation with my financial adviser this morning on this topic. I was curious what answers that I might get. Try to keep the answers short and sweet and stick to the essentials.
I had to google to get the definition.
Hedge funds are unregistered w/the SEC but cannot advertise. It would be like you and me pooling our investment/capital together and then you told a friend who joined. Only diff is, it is pension fund managers, Big endowment/foundations, with their GLOBAL HEDGE FUND managers and the private central banksters who basically rule the world.
Where mutual funds are registered with the SEC and can advertise
Hedge Funds are the biggest players in another unregulated market...DERIVATIVES. Which there are $1.5 QUADRILLION of world wide. (of which, $150 TRILLION is now guaranteed by the FDIC, thanks to president Obama.MrB,
That is correct. The other difference - and this is what I talked with my financial adviser about - is that mutual funds are regulated by the SEC and are more limited in the sort of risks that they can take. Hedge funds, on the other hand, are totally unregulated and unsupervised. (That is why only certain - "knowledgeable" - buyers are allowed to buy into hedge funds.) In fact, they are difficult to sue for damages. Bernie Madoff ran a hedge fund. Here are a couple of interesting articles related to the subject of Madoff and hedge funds.

Upon researching this further, you will find it was the Federal Reserve dictating to Obama and the FDIC, that this was to be done, proving my point who really is running things,...and it aint "we the people".Hedge Funds are the biggest players in another unregulated market...DERIVATIVES.

You forgot to add that they do this in real time, constantly and across many investments making bets via computers that are essentially bets against other guys doing the same thing.
Isn't that how all investments work?You forgot to add that they do this in real time, constantly and across many investments making bets via computers that are essentially bets against other guys doing the same thing.
