Year to date, HDGE is up 1.8% versus the S&P 500 losing 3.49%. In the past month, the equity markets have obviously rallied off of their early October lows, and HDGE has lost some ground, down 10.10% versus the S&P 500 gaining 9.56%.
HDGE may appeal to those portfolio managers who are approaching the recent rally in equities cautiously, and may want to build some fundamentally based short exposure into their portfolios in the event that this rally falters.
