A little reminder to please submit any hedge fund implosions in case I have missed them. Cheers.

A little one but it's good to keep the momentum going and keep the scoreboard ticking over.

U.K. Mainsail Hedge Fund Bails Out Of Asset-Backed Investments

LONDON - The investment fund body count continued to pile up on Monday, when the subprime-related debt market drought squeezed the liquidity out of one of British hedge fund manager Solent Capital's funds.

Solent said on Monday that "current market volatility and lack of market liquidity" in the subprime debt markets meant it would have to wind down its Mainsail II fund, which had invested in asset-backed securities. This type of statement has become commonplace, with investor appetite for risky debt at a complete standstill, but rather than try to ride out the storm, Solent is writing Mainsail off as a shipwreck. :P

I think you can update the Basis Capital info.

"Basis Capital Tells Investors Loss May Exceed 80%"

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...&refer=home

"Basis Capital is unable to ``accurately estimate'' the value of units in its Yield Fund, the hedge fund said today in a letter sent to investors and obtained by Bloomberg News. The losses have worsened since a month ago, when it said the fund may decline more than 50 percent. The firm managed $1 billion in March."

"Sydney-based hedge fund Absolute Capital Group Ltd. has also been caught in the rout and halted redemptions from two funds to avoid a sale of assets at distressed prices."

Solent, Avendis Fund Ratings Slashed to Junk by S&P (Update3)

Aug. 22 (Bloomberg)

Avendis' Golden Key's commercial paper rating was cut to B, one step below investment grade, from the highest level of A-1+. Ratings on parts of Solent's Mainsail II fell by 16 steps to CCC+ from the highest grade, and its commercial paper rating dropped three steps to A- 3, the lowest short-term investment grade ranking.

Ratings on similar funds operated by London-based Cairn Capital Ltd. and Sachsen LB Europe, may also be cut, S&P said.

Cairn Capital is proposing a restructuring of its Cairn High Grade Funding I Ltd. unit, which has not breached any tests, S&P said. Sachsen's $7 billion Sachsen Funding I Ltd. has failed liquidity tests but not yet started selling assets, the credit rating firm said.

World recession

Standard and Poor's chief economist David Wyss says defaults in the US could spread beyond risky lenders to traditional American banks.

Speaking to The World Today, Mr Wyss said the worst of the subprime mortgage crisis may still come.

"This isn't over yet. What we're seeing so far is largely the start of the problem," he said.

"We've seen most of the drop in housing starts and home sales. The price decline though is only about half over, and we haven't really seen any of the losses yet.

"The losses are a lagging indicator and they probably won't peak until early 2009."

He says he is expecting defaults to continue to increase.

"The real problems are the mortgages that were written right at the peak of the housing cycle, back in late 2005 and 2006," he said.

"We're just starting to see those delinquencies build up right now. But what has the markets spooked, is not what's happened yet - it's projecting this trend.

"I still think the Federal Reserve has the tools to make sure that this doesn't turn into a recession.

"I think that the rest of the economy is still quite buoyant, but there's obviously now a higher risk that this could turn into an outright recession."

While Mr Wyss believes the housing correction is mild by historical standards, he says it may just be enough to push the US to the brink of recession.

"If the US gets pushed into recession, it won't just be because of the housing situation itself, it will be because the spread of that into the rest of the financial markets," he said.

"People are getting scared of holding securities and if they get nervous about debt, if they get nervous about taking risks, that can hit investment, and that can hit the rest of the economy."

The fat lady ain't singing yet.

GF, not wishing to hijack your thread (excellent stuff by the way) but found this on Bloomberg

Hedge Funds Double Share of Fixed-Income Trades

It is an article about hedge funds and their market share wrt to debt. Here is a quote

Hedge-fund assets worldwide increased almost threefold in the past five years to $1.75 trillion as of June, according to Chicago-based Hedge Fund Research Inc. Fund managers' appetite for fixed-income assets has fueled growth in trading volume as well as concerns about who might buy the debt products in troubled markets.
Hedge funds ``appear more concerned than other U.S. fixed- income investors about liquidity risk,'' according to the study, referring to worries buyers might disappear when trading becomes volatile. By comparison, other investors cited risk of default as their top worry.

Gives us some idea of the size and potential problems when looking at the funds "imploding".

If you think it is poorly placed here let me know and I'll delete it.

Citigroup to Shut Tribeca Hedge Fund, Expand Old Lane

Sept. 5 (Bloomberg) -- Citigroup Inc. will close its $2 billion Tribeca Global Investments LLC hedge fund and return money to clients five months after it agreed to buy investment manager Old Lane LP, which uses a similar strategy.

``We believe we can best serve our clients by offering a single, multistrategy hedge-fund platform,'' John Havens, 50, president of the Citi Alternative Investments division and a founder of Old Lane, said in a memorandum to employees today. ``Old Lane, with nearly $4.25 billion of assets under management, will be our flagship product.''

Apparently, although "under performing" against the mean for funds no mention of major crises and being closed for consolidation purposes.

Conspiracy? Who knows as Citigroup allegedly have a large exposure to sub-prime, not to mention "possible issues" regarding their available liquidity (1 of the 4 who first borrowed $500 mil from the fed) and the only bank who said they didn't borrow it to encourage others to do so.

You decide if it is to "boost" the numbers or not.

so a lotta money's been lost by the hedgies- so what?

it wont cause a house price crash will it now? the amounts we are talking about wont destroy the hedgefund market - its too lucrative to destroy

heck- bear stearns suffered huge losses- but they're still around and house prices are still un-affordable!
