An award winning hedge fund manager hanged himself after becoming stressed about the financial implications of coronavirus, an inquest has heard. Guy Rushton, 36, who was married with children, was found in a barn near his £3.5million Wiltshire home less than two weeks after he was discharged from a psychiatric hospital. The £292million hedge fund he managed had lost around £180million in value due to the effect the global pandemic was having on the stock market, according to reports. His wife told an inquest that as a result he was feeling 'uncertain about the future' and 'extremely stressed'.
