Q.What is a Hedge Fund?
A Hedge Fund is a fund established by one or else several partners with net worth of at least $1 million (although this maybe falling). It uses long as well as short positions to take speculative positions in multiple markets simultaneously. Regular equity funds aren't allowed by law to short securities. Hedge funds utilize leverage and trade derivatives in order to maximize returns.
Subsequent to the leverage effect Hedge Funds command large amounts of resources. Their positions can considerably affect markets particularly those markets that are relatively less liquid.
