NHX Performance Review - November 2024

Funds count: 138

Month in Review

Nordic hedge funds enjoyed their second-best month of the year in November, riding the wave of risk-on sentiment that swept through the markets during the month. The Nordic hedge fund universe rose by 1.6 percent on aggregate, bringing the 2023 performance to 3.5 percent. Most CTAs that entered November anticipating a downtrend in bonds and equities were caught off guard as markets reversed course.

The small group of Nordic CTAs ended November in the red, as stocks rebounded and bond yields tumbled due to signals from the Federal Reserve and other central banks hinting at a possible end to the current cycle of rising interest rates. In contrast, long/short equity managers and fixed-income hedge funds both gained 1.8 percent on average in November. Long-only equity managers performed even better, advancing by 8.7 percent on average last month.

Fixed-income strategies marked their sixth consecutive month of positive performance to bring the 2023 performance to 9.6 percent, a strong recovery from the 7.1 percent average decline in 2022. Diversified hedge funds, the most diverse and inclusive group in the Nordic Hedge Index, gained 1.9 percent on average in November to bring their performance for the year into positive territory at 1.1 percent. Multi-manager vehicles edged up an estimated 0.3 percent in November, ending the first 11 months of 2023 up 2.4 percent.

The performance dispersion between the best- and worst-performing members of the Nordic Hedge Index increased month-over-month. In November, the top 20 percent of Nordic hedge funds gained 5.9 percent on average and the bottom 20 percent lost 2.5 percent, resulting in a top-to-bottom dispersion of 8.4 percent versus 6.0 percent in October. During October, the top 20 percent were up 2.1 percent on average and the bottom 20 percent were down 3.9 percent. About three in every four members of the Nordic Hedge Index with reported November figures posted gains for the month. About 70 percent of all funds within the Nordic Hedge Index posted gains year-to-date.
