A hedge fund is a type of fund which can possess either short or long positions, sell or buy low valued securities, use arbitrage, trade either bonds or options, as well as invest in additional opportunities where potential gains are foreseen.

The strategies for utilizing hedge funds vary largely with many individuals hedging against market downturns in today's economy and stock market. The main goal of the majority of hedge funds is to reduce risks while preserving available capital and delivering positive market returns in a variety of economic conditions. There are usually 14 different hedge fund strategies that can be utilized. Each of these varying strategies come with their own different potential returns and risks. For example, a macro hedge fund consists of an investment in bonds and stocks and other currencies in the hope of profiting from global interest and other country's economic regulations. This type of hedge fund is volatile but typically grows faster than other options, such as distressed-securities funds, which purchase the debt or equity from companies who are experiencing or recovering from a financial crisis. Other hedge funds include equity hedges which can be national or global and consist of the hedge being placed against equity market downturns.

Before utilizing one of these strategies, it is essential to know the advantages and disadvantages of each of the different hedge funds. Each type of hedge fund is wholly different and the volatility, risk, and investment returns vary largely between the types. For example, those strategies which are not linked to equity markets are usually less volatile, less risky, and can usually provide more consistent returns. A successful utilization of hedge funds will consist of varying strategies s so that the user of these funds will be able to develop stable, successful long term investment returns.

In short, hedge funds are not all the same. In fact, they are exceedingly different. The majority of hedge funds are placed against downturns, which has become increasingly popular over the last several years due to the heated stock markets and increasingly volatility. However, contrary to popular belief, not all hedge funds are exceedingly volatile and, instead, are able to provide constant returns.

Hedge funds are sexy investment vehicles. They are to boring mutual funds what a Lamborghini is to a Honda. (And for most people there is nothing at all wrong with a Honda.) Many people buy Lamborghinis and engage in hedge fund investing because they can. There are bragging rights that come along with having a hedge fund as part of your investment portfolio, but mostly that’s due to the exclusive nature of them, not the fact that they perform any better or worse than the average mutual fund.

What exactly constitutes a hedge fund? Usually it's a fund that uses a secret proprietary methodology for capturing gains. The methodology may or may not work as advertised. Usually the investment methods of hedge funds employ leverage, investing in commodities or complex derivatives, and/or highly sophisticated (and completely automated) quantitative investment models. All of these things add to the risk of investing in a hedge fund.

One example of the increased risk is the employment of a leveraged strategy known as a long-short strategy. These strategies, known by a ratio and denoted by using numbers such as 130/30, work by allowing the fund manager to buy long positions of up to 100% of the funds value, and then to sell short positions of (in the case of the 130/30 fund) 30% of the value of the portfolio. With the money earned from selling the short positions the fund manager buys more long positions, essentially putting much more money to work. It’s a brilliant strategy when it works to your advantage; it’s brilliantly tragic when it does not. The effect of the leverage amplifies gains, it’s true; but it can also amplify losses and with the short positions, investors are open to a theoretical infinite risk of loss.

Because of the increased risk the average investor cannot put their money into a hedge fund; one has to be what is called an accredited investor. In order to qualify as an accredited investor you have to be an individual who meets one of the following two criteria:

1. have a net worth of $1 million

2. have a minimum annual income of $200,000 in each of the last 2 years and a reasonable expectation of reaching the same in the current year

These limitations are known as the private placement rules as set forth in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933.

My advice is to stick to the boring Honda. It might not get you where you’re going as fast but in the event of a wreck, you’ll be happy you were going a safer speed.

Low rent housing often comes with a great lawn and possible shrubs. To keep your hedges looking great, remember to trim them at strategic times of the year. For best results, trim early in spring before the heat sets in to prune dead branches or overgrowth. This will help the hedges grow quickly as the season progresses. Late fall before the ground freezes is another optimum time for end-of-season trimming.
