Reit Hedge Fund What Is A Hedge Fund?

What is a hedge fund? - reit hedge fund

I still think the REIT Fund. Am I right?
They have something to do with the ceiling of a house?
Or is it a fund to compensate for bad investments? And it would not be called upon to finance an investment?
Please do not respond kindly.
Easy to get short answers are not the best answer - a long time.

It is a bit complicated to explain. Let me try.

A hedge fund is a fund designed to weigh the risks of the investment with other investments should go up to compensate. May include strategies for this purpose and many types of investments can be used.

A REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) is an investment. FPI also be used as part of the equilibrium strategy in a hedge fund. For example, commercial construction has decreased the value of properties in the REIT is likely to increase. (Probably a bad example, but I thought just now).

Hedge funds are private investment funds on certain criteria for the investors to accept. They are not regulated and limited the number of investors, unlike mutual funds, regulated by the SEC and the practically unlimited number of investors to agree to. While mutual funds are closed to new investors at times. Mutual funds invest in stocks and bonds. Hedge funds invest in all parts of the financial markets. Stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies, futures and other things. And they can take a long and short positions in any investment. and then earn money when the market is low, and complex hedging strategies. But they also high degree of leverage with borrowed money, they create a lot of risks. Investment funds seek relative returns. Shipping to an index like the S & P-500. You try to do better than the index, but that does not mean a positive return. Hedge funds seek absolute returns, positive returns regardless of what the market is through policies in the short and complex nature of the investments, not for investment funds available.. Hedge funds typically charge management fees of 2 percent and take 20 percent of the profits

I have this question more than 50 times here at Yahoo Answers, so I have a page on my blog to explain a video, which includes hedge funds.

This is a very common even for those who work on Wall Street.
