The biggest annual loss for Chris Rokos’s hedge fund isn’t deterring investors.

The macro trader pulled in $1 billion of new cash this week and is in talks with investors to raise more capital, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. The inflows came after Rokos’s hedge fund slumped about 26% last year, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the information is private.
