“BTOP50 hade en stark avslutning med fem positiva månader i rad och noterade sin bästa avkastning sedan finanskrisen 2008 då indexet steg 13,58 procent” säger Sol Waksman grundare och VD för Barclayhedge. “Stora trendföljare ledde vägen med en uppgång på 19,59 procent” fortsätter han.

Samtliga åtta CTA index från BarclayHedge noterade uppgångar under 2014. Diversified Traders Index var upp 10,79 procent, Systematic Traders Index upp 10.26 procent, Currency Traders upp 3,60 procent och Agricultural Traders steg 3,13 procent.
