Small Hedge Funds Outshine Giants in 2025

Description

Hedge fund managers, particularly smaller ones, had a stellar year in 2025, with the average fund gaining 10.8% through November. These small players, managing less than $500 million, outperformed their larger rivals, with funds under $100 million leading the way at 14.6% returns. The secret to their success was a focus on long-short equity strategies, which thrived in the blazing stock market rally. However, as markets near record highs and concerns about overcrowding grow, it remains to be seen if this small-fund streak will continue into 2026.
