August was a much bumpier ride for hedge funds, based on the latest return sheet from Evanston Capital’s Weatherlow Fund of Funds. The fund was flat for August, revealing just how many hedge funds held by Weatherlow struggled. Of the funds that did report positive returns, most of them were long/ short equity, although there were plenty of long/ short equity funds that were in the red for August as well.
