The Perils Of Paulson

  4. The Perils Of Paulson

Yesterday I posted a piece that looked at the performance of various fund managers in the current market. One of those profiled was Jeremy Paulson.

This piece looks at some of  the difficulties faced by such a large fund manager whose outlier performance numbers  might be fleeting.

The hedge fund manager became an overnight sensation in 2007 by betting big and early on the collapse of the U.S. housing market, and then doing much of the same on a surge in gold prices. But he is now emerging as one of this year’s big losers in the $2 trillion hedge fund industry.

His Paulson & Co. hedge fund firm, which managed $38 billion as recently as this past March, is down to about $35 billion as of the first week of August, and it shrinks a little bit more with every big drop in the U.S. stock market.

One of Paulson’s two main funds is now down more than 30 percent this year, the firm has reported to clients, compared to a much smaller 6.1 percent decline for the average hedge fund, according to Hedge Fund Research.
