No, I wasn't talking about the Quadriga performance results being confidential. I was referring to any information that is privately e-mailed to a client. One poster made reference to a private e-mail then another posted the numbers. The numbers are posted on their website every month, that is not confidential. Any private e-mail correspondence from them is. I'm sure Aaron you would not appreciate me posting private info from your e-mails or from your website where only investors have access to on a public message board.
The American website only updates once a month I believe. The European website I believe updates perhaps weekly. I'm not 100% sure. I rarely go to their websites as I get the e-mails every week.
The monthly results for Quadriga Superfunds are posted for the PRIOR month around the 15th of the month for the Superfund A and B funds. The results that are E mailed to partners on a weekly basis are not public information.
The Quadriga GCT funds performance are indeed on the website.
GCT is not for US investors.

I did not mean to stir a hornet's nest, I am just tired of NON partners commenting on the fund's performance.

Maverick, again me saying that a 20% drawdown in one month is painful IS NOT ignorant.
Quite frankly, people such as yourself are doing Quadriga a disservice by being so venemous. If you are ONLY an investor, they would probably appreciate you backing off. If you work for Quadriga, you need to take some marketing classes.
Kernan, I do not work for Quadriga. I have been posting on this thread since the first page. And yes, that was an ignorant statement to make in light of the facts of the fund. If you actually went to their website you would see a few things.
One, their performance dating back to 1996. Two, you would see that 20% drawdowns are not only typical for this fund but expected. So in light of their performance, that is a fund that earns 40% to 50% a year, drawdowns of this magnitude are expected.
But all you had to do was go to their website and you would have seen they had a 30% drawdown last year and the year before and the year before and so on. In fact, typically they have two large drawdowns a year. But you don't do that. Instead you come on this thread and tell us, the investors who are actually in this fund, that last month's drawdown was painful. You, being someone who is not in the fund. Does this make any sense to you?
So far this thread has been pretty productive with only a few minor skirmishes here and there. We are trying to keep it that way. If you are not an investor and you want to ask questions fine. But if you are not even in the fund and haven't even bothered to go to their website, then what do you expect you are going to get on here? This is not rocket science.
I did go to their site, and I have looked at it as well as the information they sent me. Why do you think I have not? I even stated earlier that I received information from Quadriga.
All of that does not change the fact that a 20% drawdown in one month is painful - to me, and to most people. That is the statement I made, and for some reason it has gotten your panties in a wad. If you disagree, fine. MOVE PAST IT. Why argue with me over the course of several pages?
You have issues.
Kernan,
Look buddy, do me a favor. Take the info they sent you and throw it in the trash. I am doing you a huge favor here. Trust me on this. You do not have the risk tolerance for this fund, or probably any hedge fund for that matter. Seriously, there will be many more drawdowns as bad if not worse then this recent one and if 20% is painful for you, stick to bonds buddy OK? Seriously, we can agree to disagree here. Leave out all the name calling for other threads. This fund is not for you. Move on. Good luck finding a fund that does not have 20% drawdowns. If you find one, maybe you can start a thread here and we'll discuss it.
As someone who is a partner in Quadriga (as of May 1), I see nothing wrong with the questions or statements. I have looked back over the past few pages thinking I missed a post where you attacked someone, but could not find any!
I agree, 20% in one month is big. I hope the historical performance continues in the future, though. Then I will not worry about it happening on occassion.
Don't get run off by those who think they are the self-appointed defenders of Quadriga, and this thread. If you have any specific questions, PM me and I will answer them to the best of my newbie abilities.
