Hedge funds lost 1.7% last month, the most since March 2020, led by macro funds that were battered by volatile bond markets.
The industry’s macro managers posted a 2.5% decline in November, according to preliminary figures from the Bloomberg Hedge Fund Indices. That was the biggest monthly decline for the strategy since October 2018.
