The Top 10 Ideal Hedge Fund Employers
Many of the 7,500 people who voted in this year's Ideal Employer survey selected hedge funds as their preferred places to work. They don't map one-to-one, but a lot of the hedge funds that were voted first or second as Ideal Employers by respondents to our survey are also some of the biggest hedge funds by assets under management (AUM). That shouldn't be surprising. The biggest hedge funds are some of the best known. And when AUM are combined with leverage and strong returns, they enable the funds managing them to invest more in technology and to generate strong profits.
Dem Etf: Cheap Valuation, Strong 6.0% Dividend Yield
I last covered the WisdomTree Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund ETF (NYSEARCA:DEM) in early 2022. In that article, I argued that DEM's diversified emerging market holdings, cheap valuations, and strong yield, made the fund a buy. DEM has since significantly outperformed most other emerging market equity funds, while matching the returns of the S&P 500. Although fund performance was reasonably good, I did expect stronger absolute returns and outperformance. DEM is an emerging market dividend index ETF, tracking the WisdomTree Emerging Markets High Dividend Index.

When Marc Nachman, head of Goldman Sachs' asset and wealth management division, is mentioned in polite company, he's usually portrayed as a behind the scenes sort of presence. He's a "fixer," said the Financial Times in November last year. He's David Solomon's guy, added the FT more recently: D-Sol uses M Nachman for his structural fixes. However, Nachman is also "very smart" and "digs into detail." This might sound good until you are being dug into, an experience that seems to have afflicted one of Solomon's other favourite people.
