Maybe the smart money isn’t really all that smart after all.For most of this year, the overwhelming majority of hedge funds have underperformed major stock benchmarks, a development that undermines the idea of mega-investors as market-beaters.



According to a report from investment bank Goldman Sachs [GS 104.67 -0.65 (-0.62%) ], only 11 percent of hedge funds outpaced the S&P 500 through August 3. The report analyzed 699 hedge funds with $1.2 trillion of gross equity positions.



The average hedge fund returned just 5 percent year-to-date, while the S&P 500 was up nearly 12 percent. Meanwhile, the average large-cap core mutual fund posted a 10 percent gain.



A mere ten percent of hedge funds posted returns greater than 15 percent, while a fifth of hedge funds posted an absolute loss year to date. (Related: Dumb Money: Hedge Funds Can't Even Beat Bond Funds).

I would like to take a moment to thank red team for my quick and easy 12% profit on those SWHC shares I bought yesterday morning.

Well I knew it'd be down today but from what conservatives were saying, I expected a crash. They must be pretty disappointed it's not down very much so far.

Neat. Thanks for the heads up.

Seriously dude...why would conservatives (who are typically investors) want the economy and stock market to crash?

don't be a head. At this point, everyone just wants this country to turn around and head in a positive direction. I don't give a who is in the White House if he does a good job. I don't have a lot of confidence that he can get it done but I sure don't wish bad on the rest of the country just so I can have the hollow victory of "I told you so."

I seriously thought about selling everything yesterday and putting it into S&W, but I didn't have the balls. Kicking myself now.

The same reason Mitch McConell made a pact that Obama being a 1 term president was a higher priority than restoring the economy, I'm guessing.

The same reason they cry conspiracy theory after every positive jobs report comes out, I'm guessing.

I'm not sure why you identify with this group as I see you as more of a moderate who's not a partisan hack, comes up with opinions on his own, and just wants his best interests (which I don't have a problem with), but it's clear that Republicans in this country get a personal satisfaction seeing Obama fail, even if it means this country fails. I know you'll deny it, but it seems pretty clear to me.

For instance, they somehow wanna label Obama as bad for the markets when the S&P 500 has gone up close to 80% since he took office. It's as if they'd rather get sodomized by a rusty machete than admit how much the markets have turned around since Obama took office.

I didn't make a huge play here since I was afraid that an Obama win was already priced in. Worked out nicely for me though, although it's still going up so it looks like I left some money on the table.

You think the stock market rising with low volume and low individual participation is a good thing? A positive sign?

What exactly did Obama NOT get that would have "restored the economy"?

The same reason they cry conspiracy theory after every positive jobs report comes out, I'm guessing.

The jobs report is a ed up measure no matter which party is in power. I doesn't include the long term unemployed and it doesn't include the under employed. Real unemployment and underemployment is closer to 20%-25%

I admit that I despise the guy and wish he hadn't been re-elected

Flooding the market with QE1, QE2 and QE INFINITY may make the markets look good short term but do you REALLY think it is good for the economy long term? I seriously expect 2013 to be a ed up year for the markets

Talk about sticking to your blue team talking points...

Yeah, I want to lose money so that I can blame it on Obama.

Obama isn't running for reelection.

"why would conservatives (who are typically investors) want the economy and stock market to crash"

players bet anything and everything up and down, called "hedging".

the fiscal cliff theatre and Euro markets dropping hours before Wall St opened played a bigger role than the election
