I did monthly statistics for collective2 which was also disappointing. Until Sept. it seemed that 1000-rated strategies did perform well, but then they lost overproportional.

but I didn't find how to select successful Zulu-strategies looks almost random

it's like a lottery. In their advertisements they make us believe we had good chances to win, but they know they are lying and customers lose in average. The mere existance of the "market maker" - brokers proves it. Is it different with stock brokers ? Classically people would buy stocks...

if they had had insider information, would'nt they have traded credit default swaps instead ? I also remember the police raid against S+P in Milan,August 4, suspecting them of irregularities. This was after they downgraded Italy...

why don't governments have their own rating agency ? I'd like to know how they rate each other and make a statistics who is biased towards whom why did US-bonds go up on the negative news ?
